Peak Oil Demand: The Official Word


The IEA has consistently predicted a peak in oil demand in the coming years, while OPEC is more resistant, projecting demand growth to continue for longer. This prediction asks if one of these major bodies will declare that demand *already* peaked in 2025 or earlier. The 'No' vote suggests that despite strong EV adoption in Western nations, continued industrialization and petrochemical use in emerging economies will keep demand rising, forcing IEA and OPEC to hold their 'peak after 2025' line.
