Vision2050
Visions for a Renewable Energy World

INFORSE has developed Vision2050 models for global, regional and national scales. These models demonstrate how we can move towards supplying 100% of our energy needs for renewable sources by 2050.
Explore the models:

Global Vision

Developing National Visions
INFORSE-Europe has developed a serial of spread sheets that can be used to make energy balances decade by decade, illustrating a possible development 2000-2050. With inputs in the form of a current energy balance and trends for development in energy service demand, energy efficiency, fuel shift and development of renewable energy, it is possible to make possible future energy balances, following the Vision2050. The tool also calculates CO2 emissions.

The tool is available free to INFORSE members and cooperating European networks. If you are interested in more information about the tool, and eventually to use it, please contact INFORSE-Europe by email to ove@inforse.org.

INFORSE has also compiled Planning Tools to be used in conjunction with establishing Vision2050 models, including a guideline for assessment of renewable energy potentials, employment etc.

INFORSE has been involved in the developemnt of a wind power strategy for EU. This is one of the inputs for the European Vision 2050. Read more: wind strategy and campaign.
