The EMC at ESCP will host a discussion on the topic "BP Energy Outlook - 2016 Edition". The event took place at ESCP's London Campus at 4:00 pm on 4th March, 2016.

William discussed BP’s latest Energy Outlook publication, which provides an updated view of the likely path of global energy markets to 2035. It made assumptions on changes in policy, technology and the economy, based on extensive internal and external consultations, and uses a range of analytical tools to build a “most likely” view and some alternative cases.
