Summary

The French Physics Society (Société Française de Physique) has staged debates and lectures bringing together physicists for exchanges on energy-related issues. This document summarizes the findings of this "think tank" and covers, as objectively as possible, predicted trends in energy demand with respect to reserves, along with the adverse effects of certain production modes, the role and cost of nuclear energy and a wide range of renewable energy sources. This book will interest everyone who is interested in the energy situation worldwide, and politicians will find it a valuable aid in decision-making processes.
