is this insane unlock.

Think about the fact that you can pour energy into a container.

That's irreplaceable.

If you need to go and take fuel to somebody in a remote location, you're not taking a battery.

You're taking a canister of fuel, unless you're prepared to carry 40 more containers for the same amount of energy.

There's all of these places where hydrocarbons are

civilizational level technology, which we should not replace quickly.

One more example of this is actually distribution.

This is very counterintuitive.

So I like to point out to people, we talk about the energy grid, the electrical grid, and we think of the electrical grid as the way that we move energy around the world.

But the electrical grid is actually a very, very small fraction of how we move energy around the world.

It's very tiny.

How we actually move energy around the world is by shipping hydrocarbons.

The numbers here is about 8%.

8% of energy movement is electric.

92% of energy movement is hydrocarbon.

So just an example.

We talked about different scales of power, gigawatts and megawatts.

the largest electrical site on planet earth is the three gorges dam in china right so it's the largest concrete structure ever created by humans massive massive hydroelectric dam in china it has a nominal nameplate generation of about 22 gigawatts and practicality makes about 17 gigawatts huge huge energy facility and it distributes these through massive electrical cables that snake all throughout china

We have a pipeline coming down from Canada called the Keystone Pipeline.
