Dear Reader, Fatih Birol is the executive director of the International Energy Agency (IEA). He’s a doctorate-level engineer with a strong background in energy, power systems, and energy economics. He’s followed global energy markets for about 30 years. And here’s what he had to say recently at The Sydney Energy Forum: ‘The world has never witnessed such a major energy crisis in terms of its depth and its complexity. I believe we might not have seen the worst of it yet.’ That’s a significant statement from such an experienced analyst in the energy markets. To be clear: this isn’t just some barstool rant from a guy who’s annoyed by high fuel pump prices. Birol holds science and engineering qualifications and has deep experience in the field. Well, this is a crisis Greg Canavan’s been preparing readers for since September 2021. If you’re not clued up yet, click here now. Sincerely, James Woodburn, Publisher, Fat Tail Investment Research |
