The most important factor for energy outlook would be the demand factor
Step-by-step explanation:
Any outlook for energy consumption includes various determinants. Among these the most important is “demand factor”. The projections which are made for future reserves base themselves on the average consolidated demands concurrently.
This demand factor is highly volatile and is subject to intensive fluctuation. e.g. Scientists have predicted that fossil fuels would run out in the next 75 years at current usage. However, the demand for fossil fuels has decreased relatively due to various factors such as increased dependence on renewables, nuclear power, slowdown and other factors. Hence it becomes of paramount importance to gauge demand factor correctly to make realistic projections.
