The Global Energy Assessment Report (GEA)  was coordinated by IIASA and led by more than 500 of the world's leading energy experts from research, business, industry and politics from 70 countries. GEA is the first ever fully integrated energy assessment that analyzes energy challenges, opportunities and strategies, for developing, industrialized and emerging economies. Several WBGU members were involved in the report. The GEA’s unique approach involves broad and integrated analyses to identify comprehensive solutions to global energy challenges. The GEA identifies the major energy challenges and evaluates the energy resources and technological options available to build sustainable energy system. Finally, the policies and investments needed to make these future systems a reality are outlined.
