Let me start with the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), as cars and trucks account for 60% of global oil consumption. The association forecasts an increase in oil production from 102 million bpd (barrels per day) in 2023 to 116 bpd in 2045.
This contradicts IEA's model, according to whom oil production should peak by 2030 and then drop sharply for the 1.5°C scenario to have a chance. Well, it should not come as a surprise that OPEC also forecasts that by 2045, there will be around 2.6 billion vehicles on the road, and combustion engines will power three-quarters of them.
Basically, oil producers expect that, by around mid-century, there will be only 700-750 million zero-emission vehicles globally. Much less than the two billion in IEA's optimistic scenario and close to the more-than-2.5°C disastrous scenario.
