What about the developing world?• Over 70% ofenergy technologies and facilitating their

widespread use in developing countries. Over 70% of

increase in world primary energy demand between 2004 2030 f2004-2030 comes from developing countries.

• By 2030, China and I di t f 57%India account for 57% of world coal demand, up from 43% in 2004.
