The White House issued a stark warning in July 2025: Without $1.4 trillion in new infrastructure investment, electricity prices could surge as much as 58% by 2030. That’s driven mostly by the insatiable power demand from the rise of AI data centers and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. According to Axios, new reports show that power demand is set to grow up to 10x between now and 2030. The grid we’ve relied on for decades simply can't keep pace, and that’s threatening to put a major strain on both the AI and Bitcoin booms that have…

The war in the Middle East has cost the world over a billion barrels in cumulative supply losses. Yet luckily, China had built a reserve of about the same size before the closure of Hormuz, so it stopped buying so much oil, arresting the inevitable price jump. Now, everyone wants to build an oil reserve—or needs to replenish the ones they already have. Back in March, soon after the U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran began, prompting the latter to retaliate by closing the Strait of Hormuz, the International Energy Agency said it would release…

After weeks of trying to downplay the impact of Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian refineries, the Kremlin acknowledged this weekend that Russia faces fuel shortages and a fuel crisis that needs further government intervention to solve. A few weeks ago, regional governors across Russia rushed to downplay the fuel crisis, seeking to assure residents that supply is tight only at limited gas stations and there is no need to panic about shortages. Apparently, this narrative couldn’t be contained for too long as Ukraine is stepping up attacks…

The United States and Iran have stepped back from the brink of all-out war, but the ceasefire that followed nearly four months of fighting is still being tested by flare-ups around the Strait of Hormuz. One outcome of the crisis, though, is already clear: the clean energy transition is speeding up, and shows no sign of slowing. The war is just the latest in a string of conflicts to send shockwaves through oil and gas markets in recent years, leaving global leaders increasingly wary of dependence on fossil fuel imports and underscoring the energy…

A recent social media post from a meteorologist with a large following made a claim that deserves a closer look. The post argued that it is a myth that China is responsible for rapidly rising carbon dioxide emissions, and it has been shared hundreds of times. The following graphic attached to the post, from Our World in Data, showed annual carbon dioxide emissions by world region. It also showed something that undercut the claim: China’s emissions have surged this century and now represent the largest single-country contribution to annual…

Following the June 2026 primary elections in NYC, in which democratic socialist Mayor Mamdani’s preferred slate enjoyed considerable electoral success, much has been written about the political implications. Our take is really simple. The last time the democratic socialists gained power, especially in major US cities, many of their policies were adopted by Progressives or New Dealers. In either case, that meant a far more intrusive regulatory environment for utilities. The Progressives laid the foundation for our existing regulatory apparatus…

China widened its trade dragnet on Japan Monday, adding 20 more entities, including units of Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Komatsu, to its export control blacklist. The timing undercuts Beijing's argument that Tokyo has nowhere else to turn. Three days earlier, Canada wrapped up its largest-ever trade mission to Japan with a pointed pitch: build the next critical minerals supply chain with Ottawa instead. International Trade Minister Maninder Sidhu, who led roughly 300 delegates from nearly 175 Canadian companies and organizations…

Global oil prices have collapsed back to pre-war levels, trading down near $70 per barrel, with a potential peace deal between the U.S. and Iran helping calm global markets and prompting the removal of massive war risk premiums from energy valuations. However, oil prices edged higher on Monday, with Brent crude for August delivery climbing 0.74% to trade at $72.54/bbl at 9.25am ET, with escalating military tensions between the United States and Iran sparking fresh fears of shipping disruptions in the vital Strait of Hormuz.
