11. Expo Astana 2017 Future Energy is
conceived as an extensive, integral project
that addresses the fascinating topic of
energy from several perspectives,
allowing for it to be contemplated as a
determining factor in how societies and
everyday life function.
12. Future Energy has the clear objective ¡ª exploring strategies,
programmes and technologies aimed at sustainable energy
development, promoting energy security and efficiency,
encouraging the use of renewable energy, and guiding visitors
through their essential, active role in the design and execution
of a plan for energy efficient production and use.
13. Both in its construction as well as in the message it conveys,
Future Energy presupposes an abstraction that assumes the
adoption, implementation and use of the best energy
practices for the immediate future, condiciosinequa non for
sustainable development.
Future Energy also contemplates raising awareness
regarding energy as an inherent asset of humanity that
should be used responsibly and efficiently.
Definition
14. The mission of Future Energy is to appeal to the
international community¡¯s sense of responsibility
by way of institutions, organizations,
corporations, and individuals, with the aim of
generating debate and awareness regarding the
decisive impact that energy management has on
the lives of people and that of the planet.
15. The vision of Future Energy is to highlight solutions and
paths that ensure sustainable energy management.
These pathways are aimed at:
? combating climate change and reducing CO2 emissions;
? promoting energy alternatives ¨C renewable energy in
particular ¨C and driving energy efficiency programmes;
? ensuring energy security;
? managing energy production, storage and use;
? and guaranteeing universal access to sustainable energy;
Vision
16. The key concepts of Astana EXPO 2017 ¨C socio-economic and
environmental ¨C derive from the contemplation of energy use in a context
linked with sustainable development.
Key concepts,
addressed within the project
In regard to the socio-economic sphere:
Promoting renewable energy and other energy alternatives
Energy efficiency and responsible consumption
Electrification of transport
Universal access to clean energy
The inseparability of energy and matter, life, and human beings
Energy security
17. In regard to the environmental sphere:
Fossil energy resources, limited and highly polluting in their use as the
primary source of electric energy
Global warming and climate change
Pollution and its health risks
Reduction in fossil fuel consumption and CO2 emissions
18. Dedicating an International Exposition to the theme of
FUTURE ENERGY entails thinking about a topic that
is basic to our existence and critical for safeguarding
and improving our quality of life. This is the case
especially since the more or less conventional energy
sources powering our machines, heating our homes and
lighting our cities are triggering uncertainty and alarm
because of their progressive depletion, their viability
and the serious impact of their use on the planet, our
health and our security.
