Its not about peak oil. its about EV’s. they’re going to kill the demand for oil. Even GM has recently announced they’re going all electric.

EVs still need natural gas.

And what produces the majority of electricity? Natural gas, coal and in smaller cases, oil. A report a while back said that for wind farms to produce electricity for, say, LA you’d need a wind farm the size of Arizona; plus, it takes electricity to power those electric wind generators to a peak of 3Kw.

Probably at least two decades out.

Battery technology is still not up to it.
