Ronald Stein, P.E. is an engineer, energy consultant, speaker, author of books and articles on energy, environmental policy, and human rights, and Founder of PTS Advance, a California based company.
Ron advocates that energy literacy starts with the knowledge that renewable energy is only intermittent electricity generated from unreliable breezes and sunshine, as wind turbines and solar panels cannot manufacture anything for the 8 billion on this planet.

World leaders continue experiencing a “dangerous delusion” of a global transition to “just electricity” that that they believe will eliminate the use of the oil derivatives manufactured from raw crude oil that made society achieve so much in a few centuries.
As most know, wind turbines and solar panels only generate occasional electricity, but manufacture nothing for humanity.
The elephant in the room that no one wants to discuss is that crude oil is the foundation of our materialistic society as it is the basis of all products and fuels demanded by the 8 billion on this planet.
It’s shocking that policymakers are oblivious to the reality that wind turbines and solar panels do different things than crude oil.
1. “Renewables” such as wind turbines and solar panels ONLY exist to generate occasional electricity under favorable weather conditions, as they CANNOT make tires, toilet paper, iPhones, or any products or transportation fuels to support lifestyles and economies around the world!
2. No one uses crude oil in its raw form. Simplistically , “Big Oil” only exists because of humanity’s addiction to the products and fuels made from oil!
3. Crude oil, on the other hand, manufactures everything for the 8 billion on this planet, i.e., products, and transportation fuels.

Attaining a better understanding about energy literacy and how the world has changed from societies that existed in primeval times, without electricity, transportation systems, or the thousands of products made from the petroleum derivatives that come from a barrel of crude oil.

The inventions of the automobile, airplane, and the use of petroleum in the early 1900’s led us into the Industrial Revolution and victories in World War I and II. The ‘aha moment’ for every green advocate is that intermittent electricity from wind or solar cannot produce any of the more than 6,000 products manufactured from petroleum derivatives that did not exist before 1900, that are the basis of daily lifestyles and economies worldwide.

To educate the public to be more energy literate. Energy is more than just intermittent electricity from wind and solar. Energy and electricity include thousands of products made from petroleum derivatives that “makes things and moves products,” and the various fuels required by every transportation infrastructure for prosperous societies. Energy literacy will enhance one’s comprehension that the cost of energy affects everything, from the food we eat, the clothes we wear, transportation, communications, housing, healthcare, and the leisurely living made possible by energy.
