Statistical Review Finds Fossil Fuels Provide 82% of All Energy

Earlier this year, British oil giant BP announced it would no longer publish its vaunted annual Statistical Review of World Energy, a publication it has issued each year since 1952 (see BP Dumps Annual Statistical Review – Energy Institute New Publisher). BP handed off the publication of the Statistical Review to a Big Green advocacy group known as The Energy Institute (EI). Earlier this week, EI released the first-ever post-BP edition. However, on the EI web page announcing the new edition, it says, "With the continuing support of bp." Meaning BP still (at a minimum) pays for the report. And wonder of wonders, this edition reveals that in 2022, fossil fuels provided 82% of all energy used on Planet Earth--the same percentage as in 2021. It looks like renewable energy nirvana hasn't arrived just yet!
