Webinar Registration - Zoom
Webinar Registration - Zoom: The U.S. faces a dilemma about the production of fossil fuels: Should the nation restrict this activity as it heads toward a renewables future, or would that throw the baby out with the bathwater?
Is the perfect the enemy of the good, which is the gradual electrification of everything?
The big rub is whether utilities will be able to use natural gas to support growing electricity demand, as coal is phased out, or whether public policy — both national and local — will force them to curtail gas use too?
The International Energy Agency says fossil fuel use will peak in 2030, but the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries says it will peak 15 years later. What will that mean to the fossil fuels industry?
Interestingly, the desire to end dependence on fossil fuels comes 50 years after the Arab oil embargo, which plunged the world into chaos. Then the pressure was to find more hydrocarbons, and oil became the new gold.
Russia’s war in Ukraine showed the diplomatic leverage implicit in the United States as a gas exporter. Will this be encouraged or hindered as we drive toward net zero by 2050?
This is against the backdrop of war in the Middle East and the pressure which will com
