In a rapidly changing world in crisis, fundamentals remain: mankind
will always need energy, and access to energy is an integral part of
progress and human development.
Utilizing petroleum products, main energy source for the transportation of people and goods, in the most efficient way possible
represents a major priority, especially as the transportation sector
consumes around 60% of the planet’s oil production and is responsible for 25% of global CO2 emissions. Emerging countries’
strong growth in terms of motor vehicles and airplane fleets,
continuous urbanization and economic difficulties in developed
countries impose a profound change in mobility habits to the extent of requestioning
our own behavior patterns.
EDITO
“Energy and Mobility” are two simple words for one of our century’s major issues
for which the responsibility of Total as an “Energy Company” is deeply engaged
on a daily basis, together with other major players: Public Authorities, companies,
experts from the world over, associations, consumers.
Which motorization technologies and fuels will predominate in 2020?
What constraints will be imposed by Public Authorities?
Which new car and plane concepts lie in store for tomorrow?
How will new systems and services render individual transportation more efficient?
Such are the questions this conference day will try to answer through roundtables and
debates, allowing us to build a shared vision of the evolution of a key sector for Total.
I am certain your involvement in this event will help you anticipate such changes in
order to seize the new opportunities offered by a mobility conception that is efficient,
innovative and respectful of our environment.
