Clean Primary Energy Share Has Increased 1,6% Since 2020

Primary energy consumption data reported by Our World in Data utilizes the substitution method to account fossil fuel consumption inefficiencies. It's not the most precise method but still a better representation than not accounting the fossil fuel inefficiencies at all. 

Last decade our clean energy consumption market share increased 2.58%. The pace has significantly increased and during the first three years we have increased the clean energy share by 1.55%. I'm using the visualization to highlight the scale of energy transition which is still ahead of us.

We can do it. Incremental progress during the last decade has been crucial and now the clean energy deployment can accelerate but we have to remind ourselves how precious resource the clean energy continue to be.

USGS mineral commodity summary 2023

USGS mineral commodity summary 2023 is out. Here’s a short take from to critical mineral output & reserve growth. TLDR: Mine production is growing but the reserve growth is far exceeding the demand. We are not running out of minerals. Best performer: Lithium 🏆 Li reserves are up by 4,0 Mt from last year, which would be plenty for the the whole decade worth of demand if needed. EV barometer: Annual reserve growth would be enough for more than 500 million EVs. Current identified resources are 98 Mt. Other minerals: Cobalt reserves are up 0,7 Mt which is a solid growth from last year. EV barometer: Annual reserve growth would be enough for more than 125 million EVs (NMC 811). Co mine production rose from 165 kt to 190 kt. Copper reserves are up 10 Mt which was also similar growth to last year. Copper obviously has many application, but from EVs perspective the annual reserve growth would be enough for more than 430 million EVs. Graphite reserves are up 10 Mt and Nicke...
