Abstract

the overarching goal of the Arctic Energy Summit was to create a forum to engage in a dialogue on energy development in the Arctic. the Summit brought together the people of the Arctic to discuss, share and create a balanced approach toward sustainable extractive, renewable and rural power; with the vision of creating energy wealth while eliminating energy poverty. to assist in the achievement of this goal, Arctic energy was examined as comprising two energy sources, extractive and renewable; and two methods of deployment, external and internal. Extractive sources - oil, gas, coal, natural gas from coal seams, methane hydrates - all have an external component, in which the resource is used outside or external to its source, typically used for the creation of wealth; as well as having an internal deployment for use by the people of the north. likewise, renewable energy sources - wind, geothermal, hydro and biomass - all can be deployed within, as well as external to, the Arctic.
