Currently, about 40% of the world’s energy is consumed in the Asia Pacific
region (mostly China), 25% is consumed in Europe, and 20% is consumed in
North America. However, the energy demand projected for the year 2035 shows
marked increases in the energy demand for Africa, the Middle East, and India
due to projected population growth.
