Suggesting that fossil fuels will stay around for a long time remains taboo in the energy debate. In climate change gatherings, the world has agreed to “consign coal to history” and “transition away” from oil and natural gas. It has signaled, too, “the beginning of the end” of the fossil-fuel era and a “swift” transition to renewables. That’s all very well meaning but there’s a problem: With apologies to Margaret Thatcher, fossil fuels are not for turning.
