I went to Shale-magazine and read the entire article. The Trump administration moves so fast, the author touched on all that has been done to promote fossil energy here in America and undo everything the last guy. did

A fascinating read, and that doesn't do the article justice.

The part about coal plants being replaced by "combined-cycle" plants is very good news. With thermal efficiencies in the high 50's to low 60's percent range, they are the pinnacle at the moment, in terms of what is available for utilities. They imho are a good backbone for an electric car breakthrough battery until Thorium Reactors become a reality.

Exciting times indeed....

Yeah, the entire Shale article is well worth the time to read.

There is a hell of a lot going on behind the scenes to unshackle industry that isn’t getting out. But the deep state (’old guard’, as the author puts it)has been digging in, as expected. Looks like they’re being worn down.

I got a laugh out of the authors takes on Trump’s shortcomings...to me they’re all pluses.
