National Grid turns myth buster

August 9, 2017 by Alan Stainer

National Grid turns myth buster

In response to the UK government’s announcement that there will be no new petrol or diesel cars by 2040, there have been a lot of rather alarming claims in the media.

Well it looks like National Grid don’t like being misquoted, or quoted out of context as they have produced a report that effectively ‘lays the smack down’ to the more outrageous claims.

    I guess Nigeria is aware of this development because our major source no income is fuel but in 23 years time we will be without foreign exchange, so where do we go from here?

    Although this chart is seven years from its last update, it is still very accurate. Conventional oil production did in fact peak in 2008. The relatively small addition of 5 to 7 times more expensive unconventional oil has not changed the fact that the cheap conventional oil reserve will no longer meet global demand independently by 2028. At that point the retail price of oil becomes unaffordable to 80% of the planet. If cheap alternative energy sources are not in place to pick up the load, the global economy must collapse.
