What Is Big Oil Saying? Axios interviewed the CEO of Equinor and asked some climate related questions. The answers were less than interesting but I find myself looking for transitionary comments that guide action at the oil majors. Maybe we should be ignoring this but I view the oil companies as the natural successor to the hype we had with pension funds over the past few years. Oil companies are better with energy, the uncontracted upside and their knowledge of trading is a natural fit for our industry.
More Nuclear Bailout. Ohio and Pennsylvania look like the two next States that will be supplying nuclear power plant operators with some bailout policies. Especially on the East Coast, there is a lack of renewable energy density thus far with mediocre paces of development. Advocates for renewable will use this leverage to advance solar policies if they play their cards right, more likely to move the needle in PA than OH but both will have talks.
Kids Go Marching. On Friday, millions of kids around the world took their message of climate action to the streets. This is a generational message from future voters that they will not take over a planet that is in worse shape than it is today without trying to make it better. It is the responsibility of us and our elected officials to make everything a little bit better than it was given to us.
