Justices debate whether local governments can sue energy giants for harms linked to climate change. Let’s talk about reparations for United States citizens who have to pay the bill for climate lawfare after the UN and others have admitted that the Climate change narrative was falsified. The Supreme Court opened its new term Monday with […]

ENB Pub Note: This article is from Peter Clack’s great X account. @PeterDClack. We highly recommend following him, as he has a wealth of great insights, and we are trying to get him on the podcast. When you add in intentional migration and population and cultural replacement, you can see the total intentional destruction of […]

On 5 October 2026, members of the Green Party of England and Wales voted at their autumn conference to drop the party’s longstanding blanket opposition to nuclear power. The motion removes nuclear fission from the list of technologies the party had committed to phase out and reclassifies it as a low-carbon option that can be […]

ENB Pub Note: This is from Stephen Heins’s Word Merchant Substack and is an extremely generous take on what we have accomplished at Energy News Beat. We do recommend supporting and subscribing to Stephen’s Substack. We wouldn’t have the highest views, reads, and statistics in the last five years without our great subscribers, paid Substack […]

The Permian Basin remains the engine of U.S. oil growth, but it is steadily becoming gassier. Rising gas-to-oil ratios (GORs) mean every incremental barrel of crude now brings more associated natural gas. Without matching takeaway capacity, that gas depresses local prices, forces curtailments or flaring, and erodes the economics that keep oil drilling active. New […]

The 2026 Virginia Energy Plan’s cheapest system-cost path is the one that allows new gas. Every clean pathway costs more on the bill, then wins only after a carbon adder. Governor Abigail Spanberger released the 2026 Virginia Energy Plan on October 1 and called it a path to affordable, reliable, local clean power. The modeling […]

Record VLCC rates now equal about $33 a barrel — 27 percent of delivered crude — and history shows that energy shocks plus Fed tightening are how demand destruction turns into recession. Especially after the Fed raises rates during an energy crisis, recessions follow. Patterns in finance matter, just like physics matters to the grid. […]

Welcome back to the Energy Newsbeat podcast. Today, we’re diving deep into one of the most critical—and misunderstood—issues facing America’s energy future. Most people think the grid is just the wires and power plants they see. But what if I told you two grids are operating at the same time, and they’re increasingly working against […]

Global electricity demand is growing faster than the grids that have to carry it. The constraint is no longer just generation. It is the hardware that steps voltage up and down—large power transformers and the related substation gear—and the industrial base that used to build them. The International Energy Agency’s Electricity 2026 report puts global […]
