As society strives to deliver a new era of economic growth, ensure energy security and address climate change, artificial intelligence (AI) has matured to a point that it is making a broad impact in the world and on human life. But how might the energy system change as AI catalyses change across society?
In The 2025 Energy Security Scenarios: Energy and artificial intelligence, Shell reimagines the Archipelagos and Horizon scenarios in the context of a world using AI. They have also added a third scenario, Surge, which explores the prospect of a new wave of economic growth driven by productivity improvements catalysed by AI. In Archipelagos, technology development is hampered by global concerns about resource, border and trade security. Horizon takes a normative approach to investigate what the world would need to do to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and global warming limited to 1.5°C by the end of the century.
