Abstract

The subject of sustainable energy development has been widely discussed and debated in recent years. However, despite widespread interest, progress toward this goal has been limited. This paper will build on current thinking related to sustainable development, energy forecasting, and complexity theory and show how past roadmapping methodologies fall short. While proposing ways of thinking aboutour responses to global changes, we consider how we can create and discover the pathways through those unpredictable changes toward high global renewables penetration.
