“In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” - George Orwell On The Bill Walton Show, Mark Mills strips away the Newspeak surrounding the innocuously named "Inflation Reduction Act" (IRA) to reveal it as perhaps the most audacious experiment in government-directed industrial planning in U.S. history. Mark P. Mills is the executive director of the National Center for Energy Analytics, and author of The Cloud Revolution. Like Orwell's Ministry of Truth, which turned lies into official doctrine, the architects of this legislation have manufactured their own reality. They call it the "Inflation Reduction Act" while knowing it will create profound inflation. They promise "affordable clean energy" while mandating the replacement of working systems with ones that are demonstrably more expensive. They speak of "climate justice" while building a system that will impoverish the middle class. The numbers tell their own stark story: Between $3-6 trillion in total spending – approaching the inflation-adjusted cost of World War II. But unlike that war, which mobilized American industry to defeat fascism, this massive expenditure aims to dismantle our existing energy infrastructure in favor of an unproven alternative. Mills, speaking with the precision of his physics background and decades of energy expertise, reveals the dystopian preview already unfolding in Europe. In Germany, the green energy transition has led to a 300% increase in energy costs, shuttered factories, and a 70% collapse in foreign investment. The corruption inherent in the Inflation Reduction Act would be comical if it weren't so tragic. Mills points to organizations receiving billion-dollar grants mere weeks after their formation. One entity, showing a previous annual income of exactly $100, received $940 million in taxpayer funds. Kafka himself couldn't have designed a more sinister bureaucracy. But perhaps most chilling is the corrupting political engineering at work. Like the chocolate ration increases in "1984," which actually masked decreases, the IRA's architects have carefully distributed funds across red states to create dependency and prevent future reform. It's a masterclass in political manipulation. And there's more: Electric vehicle manufacturers losing up to $100,000 per car even with $30,000+ subsidies Wind and solar projects requiring massive new transmission infrastructure that ratepayers, not taxpayers, will fund Bureaucrats, with no experience in managing large grant programs, suddenly overseeing billions in climate funds A guarantee of higher electric bills sold as "savings" to the American public Key moments from this essential conversation: 00:57 Origins of Deception - How partisan reconciliation birthed history's most expensive energy legislation 02:11 The True Ledger - Analysis revealing $1-4 trillion in direct costs plus $2-3 trillion hidden in future utility bills 04:27 Electric Dreams Meet Reality - The mathematical impossibility of current EV economics 05:34 European Prophecy - Germany's de-industrialization preview of America's possible future 13:05 Following the Money - The labyrinth of newly-formed organizations receiving billions 17:39 Political Engineering - How strategic fund distribution creates dependency across red states 25:50 Inflation by Design - The inevitable consequence of printing trillions while mandating expensive energy 29:57 The Forbidden Discussion - Scientific context about CO2 that challenges the narrative 34:19 Gates' Admission - Why even complete implementation won't change 2050 outcomes 38:40 Hope for Reform - The urgent need for transparency and oversight As Mills notes, comparing this to World War II spending isn't hyperbole – it's mathematics. But unlike that war, which united Americans in common cause, this massive expenditure threatens to divide us while weakening our industrial base and energy security.

Mark P. Mills returns to Decouple to challenge our understanding of energy scarcity and efficiency. In this episode, he unravels the paradox of how pursuing energy efficiency often leads to increased consumption, and explains why he believes our energy resources are functionally limitless. -- Mark P.

When does predicting the future become a science and not a fantasy? What can be learned from forecasts throughout the ages and across different industries? What does the future of energy look like, given certain unchangeable limitations of physics themselves?Mark P. Mills is the founder and executive director of the National Center for Energy Analytics and the author of the books The Cloud Revolution: How the Convergence of New Technologies Will Unleash the Next Economic Boom and A Roaring 2020s, Digital Cathedrals, and Work in the Age of Robots. Greg and Mark discuss the complexities and pitfalls of forecasting, why we often get it wrong, and the various types of forecasters. Mark explains the interconnectedness of energy, computing, and infrastructure, arguing against a simplistic view of an energy transition and highlighting the intricate dance of innovation and efficiency across centuries. He also touches on the future impact of AI, the importance of complementary investments for technological growth, and the profound phase changes society is currently undergoing. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:On forecasting and the future of technology06:04: In the book [The Cloud Revolution], what I chose to do was a framing of a forecast with technology that was very specific, and which I think can be highly predictive and accurate. And this is not about how much money people will make or what company will succeed, but if you want to forecast the next decade on technology, not about human nature, not about wars, not about who gets elected, those things all matter because the world is dynamic, and these things interact. Economies matter; they affect our ability to build things, fund things. So, an economy that's shrinking can delay the forecast of a new product or service because if the new product or service requires new capital, new infrastructure, and capital's expensive, then the actual emergence of that system might take longer than you thought, but it'll still happen. It'll just happen later.Efficiency fuels demand, not reduces it44:15: The idea, which we can find better and implement better through compute communications and AI, means that we have not tapped all the efficiencies, systems, and supply chains. There's enormous efficiency to be had. But efficiency creates demand; it doesn't kill demand…This complete misunderstanding of efficiency is a failure to understand how humans operate, how we live our lives, and what we like to do.Why big airplanes won't fly on lithium batteries40:39: When the technologies are new, there are two things about them: we haven't figured out how to make them at physics limits yet. Our knowledge is weak. We haven't refined the engineering because it's a new technology. So, as you do that, you approach physics limits. And this is what's going on now with batteries. You can't store more energy in a lithium battery than exists in the lithiated chemicals. You can't. I mean, it's the lithium atom. It's one of the most energetic atoms on the periodic table. But lithiated chemicals have one-fifth the energy per pound that hydrocarbons do. So, hydrocarbons start with a 50-fold. That's a pretty big advantage in energy per pound. So, what you would do then is make machines to extract the energy per pound, which is why big airplanes are not going to have lithium batteries. They'll carry them, but they're not going to fly with them. Little ones can because the advantage that the hydrocarbons have in the physics of the universe we live in is so much greater. So, it doesn't matter how cheap the lithium is. If it were free, it wouldn't change the fact that the fuel for the airplane would weigh more than the airplane because it's not dense enough.Systems have inertia33:48: Systems have inertia, economic systems, and financial systems. Physical systems all have inertia. It's a physics term, but it's anchored in how the universe really operates. You can't change big things quickly, except by explosions, right? In social economic terms and physical terms. You can change things quickly and explosively, but explosions are destructive, whether it's a financial, economic, or physical system. So, the velocity of change first begins with the size of the system you're trying to change.

On this episode of the podcast, Host Amanda Head dives into the intricate landscape of America's electricity demands and the critical need for additional power plant infrastructure to meet the ever-increasing growth. Amanda's distinguished guest on this episode is Mark P. Mills, one of our nation's premiere energy experts. Mr. Mills currently serves as the Executive Director of the National Center for Energy Analytics and as a Senior Fellow at the Texas Public Policy Foundation and discusses the testimony he gave before the U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee on May 21, 2024.Right now, there is a soaring demand for electricity to fuel data centers, artificial intelligence (AI), manufacturing, electric vehicles (EV) and much more, but powering these growth areas to sustain economic prosperity is going to take a bipartisan effort in Congress and tons of consultation with outside industry leaders and energy experts. Nevertheless, constant political gridlock pose a major challenge to effectively balance electricity growth as well as current and future energy needs. However, throughout the conversation Mills inferred there seemed to be a renewed level of optimism by elected Republicans and Democrats, especially on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, to work on the future of energy innovation and navigate our nation's energy output issues together. Additionally, Head questioned Mills as to why automakers are struggling with electric vehicle profitability despite the Biden Administration's constant push, which now includes subsidies. Mills delves into the complexities of EV sales, market share, and the accelerating growth rate juxtaposed against overall vehicle sales. Furthermore, the discussion shifts to the environmental impacts of renewable energy sources, with differing perspectives on the definition of ‘clean' energy and the geopolitical dependencies of solar panels and electric vehicles. Head and Mills dive into a greater conversation about the future of energy technology, including nuclear power and the role of government regulation that often delay major progress in all industries, especially energy.You can follow Amanda Head on social media by searching for her handle, @AmandaHead.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3: 5:05pm- Dr. Martin Kulldorff— Former Professor of Medicine at Harvard University and Mass General Brigham—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest editorial for City Journal, “Harvard Tramples the Truth.” Dr. Kulldorff was fired from Harvard University for speaking out against mandatory vaccinations and publicly questioning the validity of widespread lockdowns. He writes: “Almost everyone now realizes that school closures and other lockdowns, were a colossal mistake. Francis Collins has acknowledged his error of singularly focusing on Covid without considering collateral damage to education and non-Covid health outcomes. That's the honest thing to do, and I hope this honesty will reach Harvard. The public deserves it, and academia needs it to restore its credibility. Science cannot survive in a society that does not value truth and strive to discover it. The scientific community will gradually lose public support and slowly disintegrate in such a culture. The pursuit of truth requires academic freedom with open, passionate, and civilized scientific discourse, with zero tolerance for slander, bullying, or cancellation. My hope is that someday, Harvard will find its way back to academic freedom and independence.” You can read the full article here: https://www.city-journal.org/article/harvard-tramples-the-truth 5:30pm- Kevin Tan of Business Insider writes: “A Texas man says he believes anybody else should be president instead of the current Democratic and GOP frontrunners. And he's taking things into his own hands and running a long shot race to prove a point—by changing his name to ‘Literally Anybody Else.'” You can read the full article here: https://www.businessinsider.com/texas-man-named-literally-anybody-else-is-running-for-president-2024-3 5:45pm- In their recent Wall Street Journal editorial, Jonathan A. Lesser and Mark P. Mills write: “Widespread adoption of EVs will require an unprecedented and staggeringly expensive expansion of local electrical grids. This will require a huge increase in the production of electrical transformers, along with more power plants and transmission lines to produce and deliver energy. This overhaul must include upgrading local grid distribution at the roughly 3,000 electric utilities across the country—the wires, poles and transformers that line our streets. There are 60 million to 80 million distribution transformers in neighborhoods, designed for existing loads. Around one million new ones are sold annually, two-thirds of which replace aged-out transformers. That replacement rate isn't close to meeting the EPA's dreams. Millions more—and heavier—transformers will be needed to handle higher power levels and more frequent use, even if many EVs are charged overnight. This will also require replacing many of the existing utility poles to handle new transformers' extra weight.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/can-we-power-the-epas-ev-fantasy-electrical-grid-energy-vehicles-a786d535?mod=opinion_lead_pos6
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (03/28/2024): 3:05pm- On Thursday, former President Donald Trump attended the wake of fallen New York City Police Officer Jonathan Diller. Officer Diller, 31-years-old, was fatally shot during a traffic stop earlier this week in Massapequa, NY. Speaking from outside the wake, Trump said “this is a horrible thing and it's happening all too often”—noting that the man accused of killing Officer Diller had been previously arrested on numerous occasions, and yet was allowed to go free each time. 3:10pm- On Wednesday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) signed legislation that empowers homeowners to evict squatters. While speaking to the press, DeSantis noted a recent instance where police arrested a New York homeowner for attempting to evict a long-term squatter who stopped paying rent. 3:30pm- Spencer Lindquist of The Daily Wire writes: “Voters say that immigration is the single biggest issue facing the country, with President Joe Biden facing his lowest approval rating over his handling of immigration, a new poll has found. The new Harvard Harris poll in conjunction with the Center for American Political Studies found that immigration is not only the top issue facing the country, but that Biden has the lowest approval rating on his handling of immigration compared to other issues.” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/voters-say-immigration-is-top-issue-facing-country-biden-faces-widespread-disapproval-on-immigration 3:40pm- Earlier this week, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump announced his newest venture: selling bibles! Of course, members of the media are melting down in response—including CNN's Ashley Allison who suggested this violates separation of church and state. 4:05pm- On Thursday, former President Donald Trump attended the wake of fallen New York City Police Officer Jonathan Diller. Officer Diller, 31-years-old, was fatally shot during a traffic stop earlier this week in Massapequa, NY.

At the end of 2023, Congress had four different pieces of proposed legislation directed at creating a carbon tax; three had bipartisan support. Thus, bookmakers see a rising prospect for some form of carbon tax. We return to unbundling why that's such a bad idea, and the flaws in claiming that it would unleash “market forces” to create alternatives. For a summary of the state of the bad idea see The Carbon Tax Cliff, City Journal, Mark P. Mills, January 3, 2024.

Manhattan Institute senior fellow Mark Mills is a physicist and venture capitalist in the field of emerging energy technologies. Mark joined Rep. Crenshaw to discuss the physics-driven trade-offs of transitioning to wind, solar, and electric vehicles. How many miles do you need to drive an EV just to break even on the carbon emissions it took to make one battery? How did China in one month wipe out 15 years of Germany's carbon savings? Why do electricity rates continue to rise with the transition to “cheaper” green energy? We answer all these questions and much more as we look at how renewables rank against oil, gas, and nuclear in terms of costs, emissions, land-use impact, and net societal benefits. Mark P. Mills is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute and a faculty fellow at Northwestern University's McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science.

MIlls explains how the conventional wisdom on how technology will change the future is wrong and lays out a radically different and optimistic vision for what's really coming. According to Mark, a convergence of technologies will instead drive an economic boom over the coming decade, one that historians will characterize as the “Roaring 2020s.” It will come not from any single big invention, but from the confluence of radical advances in three primary technology domains: microprocessors, materials, and machines.

Pessimism is everywhere, but the author of The Cloud Revolution says we're entering a golden age of abundant, ubiquitous, and liberating technology.
From geopolitical pressures to the shunning of fossil fuels, there is no question the current state of energy in the US and globally is a mess. One possible answer? An “all of the above” approach. . For candid insight into this topic, we sat down with Mark P. Mills, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute and a faculty fellow at Northwestern University's McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science. Mark served in the White House Science Office under President Reagan and subsequently provided science and technology policy counsel to a variety of private-sector firms, the Department of Energy, and U.S. research laboratories. He began his career as an experimental physicist and development engineer in microprocessors and fiber optics. . As part of this wide-ranging discussion, Mark shares his views on the need for hydrocarbon, the instability of the grid, energy's relationship to inflation, the US dependance on China, and why there should be a holistic approach to the world's energy needs. . Mark is author of the book The Cloud Revolution: How the Convergence of New Technologies Will Unleash the Next Economic Boom and a Roaring 2020s and host of the new podcast The Last Optimist. He is also author of Digital Cathedrals (2020), and Work in the Age of Robots (2018). His articles have been published widely, including in the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, USA Today, and Real Clear.

After I shared episodes on the hazards of solar and wind, as well as my experiment disconnecting my apartment from the electric grid in Manhattan (in month 8 as I type these words), a listener pointed me to Mark Jacobs. I can't believe I hadn't found him yet.I dove into Mark's prolific research and writing. He makes plenty free on his site. As a professor of engineering at Stanford with great passion, he researches what he's talking about and makes it all available. He's not just talking or hoping for the best.His research helps form the Green New Deal. He contributed to the IPCC work that won the Nobel Prize. Coincidentally, he criticized podcast guest Mark P. Mills article I linked to in More Hopeful Calculations for the Energy Transition.We talked about his roadmaps for transitioning the world, countries, states, cities, and towns to 100% clean, renewable wind, water, and sunlight in all energy sectors and his books, 100% Clean, Renewable Energy and Storage for Everything (2020) and No Miracles Needed (2023).

The modern world's dependence on hydrocarbons won't be ending any time soon, says Mark P. Mills. He says it is physically impossible to switch from coal, oil and gas to solar, wind and batteries in any meaningful time frame. “It is a dangerous delusion to base policies on the idea that such a transition is possible,” he says. “A different understanding of ‘transition' is required, one that recognises that new energy sources should be considered additives, not outright replacements.” Mills joins Nick Cater for this conversation that was originally conducted for Nick Cater's Battleground on ADH TV.

Tom welcomes Mark P. Mills to the show. Mark is a Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, and a Faculty Fellow at the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science at Northwestern University. Mark discusses the true costs of the green energy revolution. Most of the minerals and refining of ores used to make batteries are mined outside the United States and Canada. China represents 2/3rds of the market share of critical materials needed to make batteries and photovoltaic cells. The bottom line is that 500,000 pounds of rock is mined to produce an E.V. car battery. The total emissions involved is at least 15 tons of CO2. An efficient internal combustion vehicle will emit a similar amount of carbon over its lifetime. However, this doesn't account for the energy used to charge the battery of an electric vehicle. Mark notes that ore grades have been declining on average for centuries. More ore has to be processed for a given quantity of metals produced. Most of the green energy forecasts are not realistic, and we will need incredible amounts of copper to achieve these lofty targets. The world will need 200%-300% more copper than we have been producing annually for at least a couple of decades. We will need even more copper to improve the grid. We need to ask more questions, as there is no evidence that sufficient resource capacity will be coming online to meet these goals. Governments do not appear to notice that they aren't getting their subsidy bang for the buck. We've spent two decades transitioning from hydrocarbons and already spent five trillion dollars. That number is likely higher in terms of additional burdens on the economy. During these two decades, we've managed to drop the energy requirements from hydrocarbons by two percent. However, over this same period we've increased our total energy usage from hydrocarbons on the order of six Saudi Arabia's. Mark explains the difficulty in recycling battery materials and why it may remain cost prohibitive. Deindustrialzation in Europe and energy scarcity has shutdown two thirds of all fertilizer production, along with half of the metal refining industry. Should prices continue to escalate, most industry in the U.K. will shut down. Many industries are difficult to restart because they are designed to operate continuously. A lot of industry may decide to re-open in another, safer country. Lastly, he discusses the energy density and ability to surge hydrocarbon solutions in contrast to other much more expensive and impractical methods.

Mark is a physicist who went into business around the environment. There aren't many of us, so I think you'll hear a rapport we enjoyed that I think you'll enjoy too. We indulge in physicist talk.I contacted him because I found his reports on what solar and wind---what I don't see how we can call renewable, green, or clean energy sources---require in their manufacture, transportation, installation, decommissioning, and more. Many fans of such technologies gloss over their problems, which seems to me irresponsible. If we are not honest about them we will make mistakes. Partisanship is a problem when there are testable answers to how much a particular solar installation or strategy to lower emissions works.Mark looks at possible futures but also returns to what's happening today, what works now, not just in the future. He looks at what's going on behind the scenes that can be measured. I recommend reading his work I link to below.We talk about the book Limits to Growth, I welcome his views though, for the record, don't find it as wrong as he does. I consider its systemic approach essential and didn't view its simulations as predictions so much as learning what patterns our global environmental and economic system could show.I use solar, but don't consider it a long-term solution. I also don't think things like nuclear and fusion work long-term either, but we didn't get to that topic. We'll continue our conversations, though, which I look forward to.Mark's book: The Cloud Revolution: How the Convergence of New Technologies Will Unleash the Next Economic Boom and A Roaring 2020sSome of my favorite of Mark's posts and videosMines, Minerals, and “Green” Energy: A Reality CheckThe “New Energy Economy”: An Exercise in Magical ThinkingThe Hard Math of Minerals41 Inconvenient Truths on the “New Energy Economy”What's Wrong with Wind and Solar?How Much Energy Will the World Need?Mark's podcast The Last Optimist Hosted on Acast.

"Life on earth is dependent on Carbon Dioxide, and there is no evidence that Carbon Dioxide harms anything on earth, in the oceans, or in the atmosphere.” This analysis was provided in the discussion that The Two Mikes were again honored to have with Dr. Patrick Moore, one of the world's most respected climate scientists. Dr. Moore was with us for almost an hour, and for almost the entire period he provided hard-hitting scientific data that we have heard from the climate-change fanatics in Biden's administration. Following are just a few points that Dr. Moore explained to us: --For most of recorded history global temperatures have been much higher than they are now. --Carbon Dioxide is not carbon. Removing Carbon Dioxide from the air will have no positive impact on the environment; it would be an enormously expensive but utterly feckless exercise and would remove no carbon from the atmosphere. Carbon Dioxide found in the atmosphere also reflects incoming heat from the sun and helps to keep temperatures on earth to remain conducive to life on earth. --Carbon Dioxide found in the oceans is responsible for the creation of plankton, which is the basis for all food consumed by the oceans' creatures. Simply put, no Plankton, no food for ocean life --Carbon Dioxide is invisible; it cannot be seen. As a result, it is the perfect enemy for huckster politicians and unscientific scientists to lie about and seek to create fear and anxiety among the citizenry. Until recently, these same two groups of liars claimed that the Great Barrier Reef, off Australia, was almost dead. This year's airborne survey of the reef, however, found that it was greener than in any other previous airborne survey. Another example of the climate fanatics' -- another that cannot be seen by most of the citizenry -- is their poster boy, the Polar Bear and its nearing extinction. The truth today is that there are at least three-times, and perhaps five-times, as many polar bears as there were in 1973. --Electric cars and solar and wind power are losers from the start. Solar power can be collected only when the sun is high enough in the sky and when it is not cloudy. At best, collection can occur only between 10m and 4pm in whatever time zone you happen to be in. Wind power, obviously, requires steady winds, which are not always at hand. These "clean energies" can reliably produce, at best, a third of energy requirements and that energy would be far more expensive to consumers than fossil fuels. In addition, electric cars are an insatiable consumer of electricity for frequent battery charging. That amount of electricity cannot be made available without fossil fuels and/or nuclear power, which makes one wonder why people would buy a car for which fuel will never be reliably available if the climate liars succeed in destroying the fossil-fuel industry. --Dr. Moore recently published a very pertinent book titled "Fake Invisible Catastrophes and Threats of Doom". Another of his books is called "Confessions of a Greenpeace Dropout". Both books can be bought at Amazon in hardcover, paperback, or Kindle editions. --Dr. Moore also recommended the work on these same issues by Mark P. Mills at the Manhattan Institute.

Mark P. Mills—Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute & Faculty Fellow at Northwestern University’s McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Sciences—joins The Dawn Stensland Show to discuss his recent Wall Street Journal opinion editorial, “The Coming Green-Energy Inflation.” Mills argues that as the Biden administration prioritizes the adoption of green energy, materials like copper, aluminum, nickel, graphite, and lithium will continue to skyrocket in price. Lithium, a key component in the battery production for electric vehicles, has seen its price increase by 1000% over the last two years. Can we expand mining to help drive down costs as demand increases? Mills is also the author of The Cloud Revolution: How the Convergence of New Technologies Will Unleash the Next Economic Boom and a Roaring 2020s.

Intermittent weather-dependent sources of electricity need backup storage to compensate for gaps in production. Elon Musk has promised that Solar + Powerall batteries ensure that your home will never lose power. In this episode, returning guest Mark P. Mills breaks down the concept of energy storage, the physical requirements and limitations of our current storage technologies, and what to expect in the future. Batteries will play an important role in the future of the grid and will continue to improve. However, the laws of physics and chemistry dampen some of the magical thinking that surrounds batteries, putting limits on their efficiency and energy density as well as demanding dramatic increases in mining if lithium-ion batteries are chosen for grid-scale storage. In a purely wind/solar grid, storage must be able to bridge days-long periods without sun or wind, which occur several times per decade in North America. Currently, all the grid-scale lithium battery storage in the U.S. could keep the country powered for just 20 seconds. This contributes to the economic reality that battery storage is unlikely ever to be cost-competitive with the storage of fossil fuels. While wealthy nations may be able to afford to go further down the path of a "green energy" transition, these costs will be prohibitive for poor countries. The fragilization of the grid and the crises of reliability that are beginning to impact states with a high penetration of wind and solar, like California, are beginning to create some of the characteristics of a third-world grid, such as a skyrocketing demand for gasoline backup generators (learn more about Nigeria's backup generator situation: https://www.energyforgrowth.org/memo/the-love-hate-relationship-with-self-generation). This is an impending disaster for a state pursuing an "electrify everything" agenda. An outcome of the high costs and impracticality of using batteries to back up intermittent generation is that grids with high renewable penetration have built parallel generation portfolios: one low-carbon, and the other, in the absence of abundant hydro or nuclear, dominated by fossil fuels. The renewables portfolio spares some fossil fuels, but it doesn't displace the need for maintaining fossil generators to run when it's not windy or sunny. This is why Germany, despite spending 500 billion euros on renewables, has kept 70% of its coal-dominated fossil fleet and is continuing to build natural gas infrastructure such as the Nordstream 2 pipeline. Dr. Keefer and Mills also reflect on the timescales of innovation and the (un)likelihood of achieving ambitious 2030 decarbonization goals; the concept of "energy Lysenkoism"; the geopolitics of China's energy policy; and Mills' forthcoming book, The Cloud Revolution.

Mark P. Mills, Senior Fellow Manhattan Institute, Faculty Fellow Northwestern University School of Engineering, and Partner in Montrose Lane, an Energy-Tech Venture Fund joined Grayson Brulte on The Road To Autonomy Podcast to discuss the geopolitics of the global mineral supply chain.The conversation begins with Mark discussing his review of the book Unsettled by Physicist Steven Koonin in the Wall Street Journal and how it led to the Manhattan Institute's Facebook page being temporarily suspended. Grayson raises the point about debates and how debates were instrumental in the founding of The United States.Shifting gears, Grayson asks Mark about his time as a physicist at Bell Northern Research and at the RCA David Sarnoff Research Center.RCA was then the company of consequence. RCA was the company that did as much for communications as Apple and Google and Cisco and others of the modern era did back then. – Mark P. MillsWith everything becoming more efficient, crypto mining farms popping up everywhere, and more electric vehicles coming online daily, Grayson asks Mark if the world has enough electricity to support the increased energy demand. We currently produce enough, but that could change in the future.The single most important thing about electricity is not how you make it. That is derivative. It's how you make it to support the two objectives which is: As I need it at scale, the price matters, because the more of it you use, you want it to be cheaper, not more expensive. And, I want to have the electricity when I need it. – Mark P. MillsMark goes on to discuss the history of the energy grid and how the grid is a series of networked grids. With the colonial pipeline having been recently hacked, Grayson asks Mark how secure the electric grid is today and what can be done to secure the grid from potential cyber-attacks.The electric grid is remarkably secure, currently. – Mark P. MillsStaying on the topic of resources and what is need to ensure that energy can continue to flow uninterrupted, Grayson asks Mark what happened in 1990 that led The United States to lose its position as the world's number-one producer of minerals. This was caused by regulation and the political environment at that time. Sensing an opportunity, China expanded its mining and refining capabilities.China is the world's biggest refiner of critical minerals. – Mark P. MillsThe United States is 100% dependent on the importation of 17 key minerals and imports over half of its needs for another 29 minerals. These minerals are needed for electric vehicles. At this time, The United States does not have a secure supply chain for electric vehicles.This raises the question of how can The United States transition to an all-electric vehicle future when the supply chain is controlled by a geopolitical foe, China?If your energy system is dependent on a handful of supply chain routes and a hand full of supply chain suppliers, if anything happened that took that handful out, there is a massive impact. You do not have optionality. You do not have optionality at any price. – Mark P. MillsThe supply chain for minerals is volatile with Chile, China, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo controlling the mineral supply chain and mineral refining. With a lack of new mines coming online and limited access to copper and minerals, Mark explains what the economic impact would be on the economy.Every single feature of the minerals world relevant to energy is on track to rising, not declining prices. – Mark P. MillsAfter focusing on the economics of minerals and the impact of the supply chain, Grayson and Mark discuss mining minerals and how minerals are mined.Wrapping up the conversation, Grayson and Mark discuss why the geopolitical issues of the mineral supply chain are not broadly discussed. Securing the mineral supply chain for electric vehicles is the only way to ensure the adoption of electric vehicles.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We live in a world transformed by big tech and exponential advances in computing. It is no surprise we hope this pattern can be repeated with an energy transition as anxieties mount over the implications of climate change. Unfortunately, magical thinking leaves us far from deep decarbonization and brings with it some staggering implications when it comes to resource extraction and the waste stream of dilute and intermittent energy sources.

It’s hard to say “favorite” episode because I love them all. Every conversation I have, I learn, and its my favorite thing about hosting a podcast - the guests. But. I really liked this conversation with Mark P. Mills of the Manhattan Institute. So much data, knowledge and insight over the hour. I bought his most recent book “Digital Cathedrals” and “The Bottomless Well” immediately following our discussion and the conversation pairs extremely well with our next episode with Chris Wright of Liberty Oilfield Services. Lots to unpack, I hope you enjoy. #hottakeoftheday Episode 71 w/Mark P.
