Money Talks: Oil’s sticky endgame Money Talks from The Economist
-
- Wirtschaftsnachrichten
Five decades have passed since the oil embargo of 1973 sent shockwaves through the global economy. For many years, the biggest fears about oil centred on its supply. But soon demand for the commodity will be the primary influence on energy markets, as governments try to incentivise the shift to clean energy. When will the world hit “peak oil”—and how turbulent will the energy transition be? And as the age of oil reaches its endgame, which producers will be left standing?
Hosts: Alice Fulwood, Mike Bird, Tom Lee-Devlin. Guests: Jason Bordoff of the Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University; Meghan O’Sullivan of the Belfer Center at Harvard University’s Kennedy School; Vijay Vaitheeswaran, The Economist’s global energy and climate innovation editor.
