Scenarios workshops offer first glimpse of LAC storylines
The Scenarios study group held two workshops in Buenos Aires last month (28–30 July) to explore plausible storylines for an upcoming deep-dive on Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).
The study group’s discussion (29–30 July) built on the insights provided by regional energy experts in an open workshop on 28–29 July.
From the discussions the Scenarios study group was able to formulate broad scenarios storylines for the LAC region. These storylines will be further discussed and refined in another Scenarios workshop to take place in London on 2–3 September.
Provided there is sufficient interest, these initial workshop results will form the basis and

World Energy Resources has over 80 years of history. What will be new over the next few years?
The World Energy Resources is the most estab-lished World Energy Council flagship programme. In addition to resource data, the report also assesses current and emerging technologies, to provide a solid basis for energy policy and decision making. A recent new development is that the 12 conventional and renewable resources, which are covered in the report, are supplemented by the cross-cutting topics of energy efficiency technolo-gies, carbon capture, usage and storage [CC(U)S] and energy storage.
How is the next edition of the study progressing?
The World Energy Resources (WER) study group has been established. 146 members from 41 coun-tries are identified to take an active part in the programme’s ongoing work. The Terms of Refer-ence have been finalised and the project plan for 2014 to 2016 has been produced. Next steps are:

What synergies are there with other WEC studies? How will these synergies be exploited?
The WER study group will closely work together with the other WEC flagship study groups. An important task is to support all WEC flagships with aligned, up-to-date data and ensuring consistency of data across the WEC flagship programmes. The Scenarios and Resources core team will facilitate and ensure the sharing and utilisation of infor-mation, data and insights from cross-cutting topics.
How can member committees take part?
