Well, welcome back to a beginning of a new week! We hope you enjoyed your weekend!
Did anyone read The Houston Chronicle on Sunday, March 12, 2023 and their article,” Energy czars look to future of alternatives
- ’Orderly transition’ to green fuel sources caps the discussion.” CERAWeek
by S&P Global is over and the 7,200 energy industry visitors have returned
to their respective hometowns. Houston again
showed why we are, “The Energy Capital of the World!” The big topic for the Big
Oil and Gas companies is how can we transition quickly into new energies and
navigate the obstacles. It looks like
the buzz phrase for the week is “Orderly transition” this is what we’re going
to need according to the Big Energy Companies to move into a renewable energies' future. Jennifer Granholm, the U.S. Energy Secretary agreed on how we need to control
the transition, and have permitting take a reasonable amount of time, as well
as, protecting the environment in the process.
Another speaker, John Kerry, the Special Presidential Envoy for Climate toted we need to
utilize technology in our fight against climate change. Mr. Kerry continued to also speak about the
need to change our way of doing business but do it in an orderly and
systematic way.
There are several sections to CERAWeek. The Agora section speakers were popular, when
it came to attendees, and they wanted to know about what’s next. The CEO of Oxy, Vicki Hollub was a speaker in the Agora section of CERWeek, and
she spoke of the changes Oxy has done with carbon capture and her vision to
move into nuclear and lithium as a viable future to help the fight against
climate change. The other hot topic to
speak about was hydrogen, but it would take us decades to completely develop
the demand, as well as the technology to use it. The Oil and Gas section spoke about how in the
foreseeable future we would still need it.
Speakers in other sections of the conference spoke about the Texas power
grid and how there is no agreement on how to fix it. They also spoke about how to store wind and
solar energy, and the use of backup power.
It looks like there was a nice group of speakers at CERAWeek with a
vision for change!
