We are told constantly that the world is in the midst of a transition from fossil fuels to “green” energy. “News” outlets commonly report this as fact. But in reality, no such transition is underway, nor will it ever be. Robert Bryce, one of the country’s top energy experts, explains; see original for links:
[T]he hard truth is this: the energy transition isn’t. The numbers from the just-released Statistical Review of World Energy show, once again, that despite rapid growth in wind and solar, those two forms of energy are not even keeping pace with the growth in hydrocarbons. That’s true both globally and in the U.S...............
How about the U.S.?.................Bryce points out that 2022 was no anomaly. On the contrary, in 2021 the growth in hydrocarbons in the U.S. exceeded the increase in wind and solar by a whopping 5.7 times.
There never will be a transition to “green” energy because wind and
solar just don’t work. A large majority of the time, they produce
nothing. There could be a transition someday, but if so it will be to
nuclear energy.......... To Read More
