Over the last two weeks, I have been busting my hump to prepare a presentation for an energy group, having a conference and I really dug deep to pull the data that really made sense for those who don\u2019t ever see all the facts.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.ino.com\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/13268.jpg\" width=\"865\" height=\"600\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I went to 25 or 30 different sources and grabbed \u201cSnippets\u201d of data to use in my presentation and a solid theme began to develop. The theme was this, it\u2019s not just about the EVs, it\u2019s about the entire energy balance and how many BTUs it would take, to replace fossil fuels in the entire US economy. Here\u2019s how much we produce by sector, each year.<\/p>\n<p>Demand in Quads, by Sector.<!--more--> <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.ino.com\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/13266.jpg\" width=\"660\" height=\"369\" alt=\"EVs\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Energy Information Administration publishes yearly demand figures. The above figures are from \u201cMonthly Energy Review\u201d April 2021.<\/p>\n<p>According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration: Monthly Energy Review (Table1.3, April 2021) The US consumes 92.943 quadrillion British Thermal Units, \u201cQuads\u201d each year. That\u2019s 72.95 Quads from fossil fuels, 11.59 Quads from Renewables, 8.25 Quads from Nuclear, and .153 Quads from Hydro-Electric.<\/p>\n<p>There are some, maybe more than some, who would have us focus just on a tiny section of the energy economy. Activists got \u201cBig Auto\u201d to follow along, convincing them that the world would steer away if they did not follow the activist narrative about EVs.<\/p>\n<p>They then captured the attention of the complicit mainstream media and laid out a set of facts, that made the outcome look troublesome for the fossil fuels, and hid the inconvenient facts, that gave a much more balanced picture. Scare tactics were developed.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of those who do not favor fossil fuels was to focus on one tiny fragment of the energy demand spectrum and blow it up.<\/p>\n<p>By not telling the \u201cwhole truth\u201d, the entire outcome changes, and new more bountiful facts begin to emerge. Let\u2019s start with the difference between Electric Vehicles, \u201cEVs\u201d and gasoline vehicles. Here\u2019s a chart that shows basic differences.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.ino.com\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/13267.jpg\" width=\"733\" height=\"354\" alt=\"EVs\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If we look at the facts, plus the cost of time that is not considered, then factor in that the infrastructure is not there, currently, to deliver power, when and where you need it all the time.<\/p>\n<p>So, here we are, asking ourselves, how long will it take to build the infrastructure and the production facilities to produce an adequate amount of electricity to move our economy? Not to mention, how many more trillions of dollars will it take to fund this expansion. The tiny sum of $93 Trillion, strikes me as the number many are using to just meet just today\u2019s needs. But it will take more than 30 more years and trillions more, for this transition to occur.<\/p>\n<p>Timothy S.

Helping others understand the effects of recovering energy economy and the influence of macroeconomic factors is his daily charge, as recovery from the pandemic continues. His company, Matador Economics, was founded in September of 2005 and his initial focus was on marketing and business development for energy and agriculture. After the financial crisis of 2008, Tim pivoted his business to focus on the broader spectrum of energy production and policy, distribution and marketing for crude oil and the refined products. Today, he publishes a daily and weekly commentary for subscribers. \u201cMatador Charts Abbreviated\u201d is a quick look at energy commodity prices in chart form for technical analysis, and \u201cEnergy Brief Today\u201d is his \u2019Headline\u201d daily commentary focusing on market moving fundamentals and policy initiatives that are driving energy markets today. Tim also publishes a weekly offering called \u201cWeekly Quick Facts\u201d. This publication offers highlights from the Weekly Petroleum Status Report, US Energy Information Administration\u2019s Weekly Gasoline and Diesel Retail Price Survey and the Baker Hughes Rig Count. The purpose of the weekly summary is to provide subscribers a weekly-ready reference on inventories, production, prices and much more. Tim is currently published in several industry related magazines, online and in the print media. He also currently serves as an Energy Economist and expert guest for several radio programs across Texas and the US. He currently serves as co-host for a daily radio program in West Texas and the Permian Basin. And he has worked with the host on this program for more than 17 years.
