  Drill baby drill doesn’t appear to be happening

  By XCR1250 · Posted 4 minutes ago

  Cars, trucks, trains, ships, our homes—even taken together, they do not account for the majority of our energy use. The biggest energy glutton is manufacturing, the Godzilla of energy users. The industrial sector consumes 54% of all world energy and 35% of all US energy. Weening manufacturing off of fossil fuels is the greatest challenge of all. Industry often relies on high heat. Just two examples: Absent high heat, we would not have steel and cement. Industry does not draw most of its energy from the electrical grid. Instead, it uses onsite kilns, furnaces, and boilers, all fired by fossil fuels, to produce high heat. The idea that our energy problems are solved when renewables can generate electricity for the same price as fossil fuels—so-called grid parity—is not true. To replace fossil fuels, renewables must also reach “thermal parity” by powering yet-to-be-invented processes that can produce the high heat of up to 3000 F that fossils provide today for essential manufacturing processes. Potential alternatives to generate high heat are evaluated: Electrification, nuclear power, solar collectors, concentrated solar power, geothermal power, power-to-methane, and biomass.     Just about everything manufactured uses OIL, it's not going anywhere.
