Over the past decade, the United States has become the world’s biggest crude oil producer and the top LNG exporter—all thanks to the shale boom. Fracking has boosted U.S. oil and gas production to record highs and significantly raised America’s oil and gas exports, giving the United States sway over global oil and LNG markets. Soaring U.S. oil production has challenged OPEC’s decades-long influence on global oil supply and prices, while American LNG exports have upended global natural gas trade, both in cargo flows and pricing…

The move, according to unnamed sources who spoke to Reuters, should secure a table overseas market for Alberta’s crude. Per the report, this would be the first Alberta government investment in foreign energy infrastructure, potentially marking a new stage in the province’s energy policies and a departure from the historical almost complete reliance on the United States as…

Back in April, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order that, among other things, recognized coal as a critical mineral and opened federal lands to coal mining. Trump ordered the Secretary of Energy to examine the potential for expanding coal-based infrastructure to meet the electricity needs of AI data centers and other high-performance computing operations. Then in May, Trump ordered the massive  JH Campbell coal-fired power plant at the edge of Lake Michigan to be kept open for three months, before extending the deadline until…

The supply and demand model of economists suggests that oil prices might rise to consistently high levels, but this has not happened yet: Figure 1. Average annual Brent equivalent inflation-adjusted crude oil prices, based on data of the 2025 Statistical Review of World Energy, published by the Energy Institute. The last year shown is 2024. In my view, the economists’ model of supply and demand is overly simple; its usefulness is limited to understanding short-term shifts in oil prices. The supply and demand model of economists does…

Pakistan is undergoing an energy revolution fuelled by a sharp rise in solar-plus-battery systems. This rapid evolution and decentralization of power grids is helping to shore up the nation’s energy security and meet international decarbonization pledges. However, while the solar boom is helping to keep the lights on for many Pakistanis, it is also hurting the poorest citizens. Pakistan has long struggled with rolling blackouts, power shortages, and crippling energy costs, and – like many emerging economies around the world –…

Simple answers are easy, but often wrong. The real ones take context, and a little more work. Below I provide the context for the question in the title, if you put in the work to read and understand.
