Energy products: From the energy shelves

Supermarket shelves filled with energy products such as coal, oil, gas, solar panels, wind turbines, biofuels, and nuclear rods, with digital displays showing prices and environmental data.

Energy isn’t just fuel—it’s a product that powers, builds, and even heals. From coal to renewables, every energy product tells a different story about how we shape the world. The way we classify, use, and innovate around them will define the future of our economy, our environment, and our everyday lives.

LCOE: The true cost of electricity

LCOE (Levelized Cost of Electricity) is the go-to metric for comparing the true cost of energy—from solar and wind to nuclear and gas. It shows how much it really costs to generate power over a plant’s life. Simple, powerful, and essential for smart energy decisions. Here's what it means—and why it matters.

Coal: The hero and the villain

Coal’s story isn’t just about energy—it’s an epic rise and fall. Once hailed as a savior of progress, this black rock powered cities and built empires. But behind the smoke lies a darker legacy. Join me as we uncover the truth about coal—its power, its peril, and its place in our future.
