Excellent presentation Mark, you provided a brief yet insightful historical context to understand our journey with energy and you put forward the current energy picture, built on facts and data... facts are a beautiful thing. One thing about wind power generation that should be appreciated is that the power generated by a wind turbine is a cubic function of the wind speed, Power = Wind^3 so a slight reduction in wind speed has a massive impact on the power generated.
And imagine the bad weather situation kept getting worse worse. So winds speeds kept raising. That would make my wind driven generators output comparable to one of the smaller nuclear plant for some time. Oh my, oh my, I need to build some peak time storage asap, like a massive gyro for wind gusts and a battery of pressured air tanks. cheers, gotta go build some stuff

What would you do, if big oil could make you earn them some $, by poisening your tapwater, the air we all breath and the foods we need? Id decide for health, children of humanity und motherearth! And of course keep minimising my western footprint. just my 2 cent
Mr. Mills is an interesting person to listen to. Unfortunately, he misrepresents the facts regarding renewable energy. One has to ask the question: Are these types of presentations targeted at an audience of gullible investors?
@@Richard-fm1cx First, Mr. Mills presentation is two hours of ramblings. The title is "Energy Transition..." and I get the history of energy, materials, and information. At the thirty minute mark he starts to talk about fossil fuels, saying that EVs will only replace 12% of oil and then presents grossly out of date pie and bar charts. The talk about Germany, LG, and renewable costs if flawed. He discusses the cost of wind turbines as expensive but ignores the drop in price of solar and batteries. Today solar farms are rapidly expanding and matching output of traditional power stations. Beyond that lots of charts on material costs and ultimately data centers. All of this is just a rehash of older presentations and reports. Not mention is climate change or the issue of sustainability. Flash..., proven oil reserves extend only for the next fifty years. Fossil fuel use has peaked. Renewables have won the race.
@@Jason-Spice True for now N--gas/LNG is doing well. Fracked petroleum is low quality and it's wells fade fast. Coal is dead. Do you really think that Saudi Arabia has large reserves? Nuclear is investing in what will be a stranded cash cow. Wind, solar, and geothermal are the future.

Fantastic presentation. Thanks for the reference to A Gesner - nice to see that recognition as a fellow Bluenoser.

Excellent presentation, thank you.

Thanks Mark Mills 🕊🌏😇

Rationality rules so long as merit remains in place.

Which aspects?

Investors for what? Petro producers are as strong today as ever in history.

Agreed. He also ignores finite planet and most environmental considerations. However, he is good at the supply-side physics.
