Energy Usage

This analysis explores the concepts presented by Dr. M. King Hubbert regarding nuclear energy and fossil fuels, as well as the implications of peak oil. It includes data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA) on U.S. energy usage and the pricing of various energy sources, including oil, natural gas, and electricity. Additionally, it touches on the recoverable oil reserves and the significance of geological data in estimating commercial viability. The discussion utilizes recent statistics to understand trends and future projections in energy consumption and reserves.

  3. When is the Peak? 2004 data

  4. Causality or Correlation?

  5. US Energy Usage • Sankey diagram goes here

  6. Price of Liquids

  7. 100mb/d=36bb/y 3tb lasts 83 yrs? EIA Administrator Jay Hakes to the April 18, 2000 meeting of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists in New Orleans, Louisiana

  8. Amount of Recoverable Oil, 2004 S

  14. Natural Gas Price Forecast

  15. Electricity Costs (again)

  16. NV Energy Plants Coal: 487 MW Gas: 4,233 MW Wind: 200 MW Geo: 130 MW

  17. NV Energy Emissions

  18. Global Hydrocarbon Reserves

  19. Oil Sands reserves • Difference vs light sweet crude

  20. Proved reserves are those quantities of petroleum which, by analysis of geological and engineering data, can be estimated with a high degree of confidence to be commercially recoverable from a given date forward, from known reservoirs and under current economic conditions.
