These figures make it clear why emerging and<br />
developing countries are currently unable to join<br />
Europe’s industrialised countries in achieving the<br />
latter’s priorities to save energy and reduce greenhouse<br />
gas emissions. Satisfying the basic needs of their<br />
citizens for food, water, mobility and access to electric<br />
power to improve their living standards, even to a<br />
modest level, remains their top priority.<br />
Global Energy Consumption Increased<br />

Initial estimates indicate that world energy consumption<br />
in <strong>2010</strong> reached the level of 2008. The reason behind<br />

this is the global recovery from the economic crisis,<br />
notably in the OECD countries.<br />
The Pacific region continued to enjoy economic<br />
growth. In addition to the increase of its own energy<br />
production, especially China and India made increasing<br />
use of energy supplies available from the world market.<br />
Oil consumption increased by 4.6% and natural gas<br />
<br />
<br />
hard coal accounting for most of this growth.<br />
In <strong>2010</strong>, coal (hard coal and lignite) reached a world<br />
market share of 32% (total does not include non-hydro<br />
renewables) and has continued to be the fastest-growing<br />
source of primary energy over the past several years.<br />
