General paper on global energy transitions.....

Putting the link here for others and for discussion:  https://ember-energy.org/app/uploads/2026/02/Reframing-Energy-for-the-Age-of-Electricity-1.pdf

I live in a region of the US that is quite politically conservative and rich in fossil-fuel advocates.  It becomes quite frustrating to argue points of alternative energies when local opponents continue to cite the legacy of those fossil fuel foundations at providing reliable power to the consumer.  The linked paper does a decent job of indicating the sizable inefficiencies of those power source compared to current and emerging alternative technologies.  I hope some of this information will be helpful for others here also.  An ~11 minute podcast on YouTube providing an overview of that paper is linked below as well.
