Renewable energy is taking off at exponential rates, putting global clean power "in line with ambitious net-zero scenarios." A new report suggests fossil fuel demand in the energy sector has already peaked, and "will be in freefall" by 2030.
Renewables surprisingly “on track” to meet net zero by 2050::undefined
Well, we don’t even have 50 years. Net energy of oil liquids is projected to peak as early as 2025. So trying to address that by trying to scale up even more volume only makes the energy cliff steeper.
The goals of renewable should be quantitative substitution of fossil primary energy within less than 50 years.
I’d like a suit of power armor, if we’re just magicking things into existence.

We have 50 years.
That would be sure nice, but the hard numbers of the physical reality say otherwise.
If you think we do have 50 years I recommend to reexamine the data.
Ok doomer.
