Energy is a basic foundation of human society, like food, shelter, communication and mobility. A new international energy landscape is emerging as developing countries create their energy infrastructures and as energy technologies move away from fossil toward more sustainable sources and uses. The fifty-year time scale for significant change to this energy landscape implies that the strategic research and development choices we make now will determine future energy and societal outcomes. This talk will present promising science and technology development opportunities that will promote vibrant, interactive and rapidly advancing national and global societies in fifty years.
