Gas Pricing and Regulation, China’s challenges and IEA experiences explores China’s growing reliance on natural gas: Report (PDF - 4.04 mb) New edition of Key World Energy Statistics offers a host of critical figures for free: Report (PDF - 5.78 mb) IEA plots path to halving fuel used for road transport in under 40 years in two new publications: Press release
IEA Energy, Issue 3, Autumn 2012 features oil security is the cover topic, with articles analysing the "Arab Spring", the emergence of US light tight oil, tanker traffic patterns and the positive role of speculation in oil markets. Commentaries come from Saudi Oil Minister Al-Naimi and Pultizer Prize-winner Daniel Yergin as well as Petrobras President Maria das Graças Foster and ExxonMobil Chairman and CEO Rex Tillerson. The issue examines a host of other energy issues besides oil: the worldwide expansion of bus rapid transit systems; where the new money for renewables investment is coming from; IEA outreach for energy efficiency in Russia; and some Asian economies' risky dependence on Qatari LNG and what would happen in the case of a disruption. In addition, IEA Chief Economist Fatih Birol writes in IEA Energy about two key subjects in the forthcoming World Energy Outlook 2012. Besides reading his columns, you can learn more about the WEO's special coverage of water and Iraq's oil future.

FROM THE OECD INSIGHTS BLOG Hope for Africa’s youthIf Mohammed Bouazizi had lived in Dar es Salam, Tanzania or Durban, South Africa, he might still be alive today. Like millions of young Africans, Bouazizi didn’t have a regular job, but managed to scrape by as an informal market trader, selling vegetables out of a wooden cart. Being fined repeatedly and having his stock confiscated proved too much to bear and Bouazizi committed suicide by setting himself on fire. He would have remained just as anonymous as countless other victims of injustice had news of his death not provoked the protests in Tunisia that led to the Arab Spring. Youth employment is the special theme for this year’s African Economic Outlook. It analyses the economic factors that indirectly contributed to Bouazizi’s demise, namely a rigid formal sector unable to provide sufficient employment opportunities for Africa’s youth.
