LECTURE ABSTRACT
Meeting the world's ambitions for economic expansion and lower emissions requires the advancement and deployment of a broad set of technologies at scale.   This presentation will explore a global outlook to 2050, including comparison of current trajectories to 2oC and net zero scenarios, with a focus on solutions required.   The energy transition requires a wide range of technology solutions, many of which still need to be developed and scaled.   For any given solution, multiple pathways are needed in order to take advantage of geographically varied resources.  Engineering and science disciplines are critical to reducing emissions while enabling continued expansion of the global economy.  Together with our key collaborators, ExxonMobil works to bring important solutions to scale.
