On top of that you used 1 month... and jumped over to only electricity production. Big boys use 1 year if they argue in good faith and use total, not a subset.

Updated: 16 Apr 2023, 09:38 PM ISTBloomberg The drop in diesel demand can be tied to trucking, which uses about 60% of diesel in China and more than 70% in the US (Photo: Reuters) The demand drop comes after China’s manufacturing activity eased unexpectedly in March, according to a private survey, leading a slide in factory gauges across Asia Signs of an economic slowdown are flashing in the global diesel market eric In China, the number of trucks running on highways is noticeably down in recent weeks. In Europe, diesel’s premium to crude futures recently plunged to the lowest level in more than a year. In the US, demand is on track to contract 2% in 2023, S&P Global Inc. says. Excluding 2020, when much of the economy briefly came to a standstill, that 2% slump would be the biggest drop in America’s diesel use since 2016. No matter how you crunch it, demand for the heavy-machinery fuel that powers everything from commercial trucking fleets to construction equipment is weakening in many of the world’s largest economies. Viewed as an early signal of weaker industrial activity and reduced consumer spending, the pullback has recession-watchers on high alert.“Diesel demand can act as a leading indicator for broader growth as an early sign that spending by households is waning," said Ben Ayers, a senior economist in the US with Nationwide Economics. “An expected drop in diesel demand fits with building recession risks across the economy." Once the world’s hottest fuel after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine disrupted trade flows, diesel prices have been coming down amid concerns many of the world’s biggest economies have bumpy roads ahead. Economists say there’s a 65% chance of a US recession and a 49% chance of a European one within the next year. In China, the risk is lower but the country’s recovery from its formerly harsh Covid-19 restrictions will still require a marked improvement in consumer confidence, and fast. Much of the pullback in diesel demand can be tied to trucking, which consumes about 60% of diesel in China and more than 70% in the US. The number of trucks running on Chinese highways fell 8% in the week ended April 9, according to data tracked by China’s Ministry of Transport. Commercial diesel stockpiles nationwide excluding state refineries ballooned to an eight-month high in early April, according to OilChem data. The demand drop comes after China’s manufacturing activity eased unexpectedly in March, according to a private survey, leading a slide in factory gauges across Asia. Emerging markets in the region including Indonesia — where the government has started cutting subsidies for fuel — are also seeing demand weaken as growth slows, said Daphne Ho, senior analyst at Wood Mackenzie. Your evaluation of economic data is past naive...recessions come and go, they are short-term phenomena. Long-term ramp up of oil production by a whopping 34% shows the dependency of the American economy on fossil fuels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ecocharger + 1,486 DL April 19, 2023 (edited) 6 hours ago, Rob Plant said: The WCA have produced a policy brief on the recently released IEA’s Coal 2022 report. https://www.worldcoal.org/policy-brief-iea-coal-2022/ MAIN FINDINGS Global coal consumption is set to rise 1.2% in 2022 to reach an all-time high of more than 8 gigatonnes (Gt), exceeding the previous record set in 2013. Global coal-fired power generation is set to rise to a new record of around 10.3 terawatt-hours (TWh), while coal production is forecast to rise by 5.4% to around 8.3 billion tonnes. It forecasts the world’s coal consumption will remain flat to 2025 -the time horizon for the report- in the absence of stronger efforts to accelerate the transition to clean energy. Higher natural gas prices amid the global energy crisis led to an increased reliance on coal for generating power, but slowing economic growth reduced electricity demand and industrial output. In China, the world’s largest coal consumer, drought forced a shortage of renewable power and increased demand for coal power generation during the summer, despite strict Covid-19 restrictions slowing demand. In Europe, gas prices and similar shortages in renewables during the summer of 2022 led countries to turn to cheaper coal power, as cooling for nuclear power was compromised in countries like France and hydropower output was weaker. The report predicts coal consumption will remain flat between 2022 and 2025; a decline in mature markets in Europe and North America will be offset by strong demand in emerging Asian economies. This means coal will continue to be the global energy system’s largest single source of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The largest increase in coal demand is expected to be in India at 7%, followed by the European Union at 6% and China at 0.4%. Europe’s coal demand has risen due to more switching from gas to coal due to high gas prices and as Russian gas has reduced to a trickle. However, by 2025 European coal demand is expected to decline below 2022 levels, the report claims. Production is expected to reach a peak by 2025 when the IEA believe it will fall below 2022 levels. The three largest coal producers – China, India and Indonesia – will all hit production records this year but there is no sign of surging investment in export-driven coal projects. This reflects caution among investors and mining companies about the medium- and longer-term prospects for coal, the report claims. It must be stressed that this is from the world coal association website so you cant get much more PRO COAL than that! Even they are saying that production will flatline through to 2025 and then fall below 2022 levels. What we do know is that coal production is at an all-time high and demand is currently increasing in spite of the concerns over a possible short-term recession. Coal is still King.

Suggest retaking kindergarten 9 The net interstate flow of electricity is the difference between the amount of electricity that is generated in a state and the amount of electricity that is consumed in that state. If a state generates more electricity than it consumes internally, it is a net exporter of electricity. Here's a simple example: If State A generates 1,000 megawatt hours (MWh) of electricity and consumes 800 MWh, while State B generates 500 MWh and consumes 1,000 MWh, the net interstate flow of electricity would be from State A to State B, since State A has a surplus of 200 MWh, which is exported to State B to help satisfy demand.
