[Editor's note] This article is authorized by the author and is reprinted from the public account "A Bad Potato". There is a lot of exciting content, everyone is welcome to pay attention.
During the Russo-Ukrainian war, everyone believed that Europe must be harvested. It had neither food nor energy, so Boris suggested that everyone eat less food and lose weight more.
In fact, the United States has not escaped at all... It has encountered the biggest energy crisis in in 50 years, further pushing up inflation.
Europe was harvested by the United States, America was also harvested by the United States....
Listen to me.
With the breakthrough of shale oil technology, the United States has already become a net exporter of oil.
Because of its technological leadership, in September 2020, the United States once surpassed Saudi Arabia and became the world's largest oil exporter that month.
The United States is not only rich in oil, but also rich in natural gas. In January this year, the United States exported 7.22 million tons of natural gas, becoming the world's largest exporter of natural gas that month.
There is no shortage of anything. How can the United States still have an energy crisis?
Yes, last month, the head of the American Oil and Gas Association said that the energy crisis the United States is experiencing may be the most difficult one in the past 150 years.
"We are likely to be in the largest and most serious energy crisis in 50 years. Currently, the prices of diesel and gasoline in the United States are at an all-time high, and inventories are at an all-time low "
Isn’t there a lot of oil and gas in the United States? Why is there a shortage? Woolen cloth?
In the context of the Russo-Ukrainian war, Europe has reduced a considerable part of its Russian oil and gas purchases. Global energy is tight and prices have soared. Naturally, American energy companies have to increase prices. Otherwise, they would rather sell to Europe with higher prices than give it to Europe. Americans use themselves.
If you don’t make money, aren’t you a bastard?
In the first quarter of 2022, U.S. natural gas exports increased by as much as 87%. At the same time, the United States only increased natural gas production by 5%. This means that the United States sold more natural gas, and Americans used it. To the natural gas extremely drop .
Therefore, the United States, which is rich in natural gas and oil, has no energy and uses because it has to sell it to Europe or other regions to make huge profits. The soaring energy prices have further pushed up inflation in the United States.
However, American energy companies are unwilling to increase production capacity because increasing production capacity will lead to falling prices.
Do you Americans have energy? What do you care about our American energy dealers?
On June 15, Biden sent a strongly worded letter to seven of the largest oil refineries, the five largest U.S. refiners plus BP and Shell, complaining that their profit margins had tripled in recent months. , profits also hit a new high.
Biden said directly: In the past few months, you have made more than God...
Biden also said that starting in 2020, U.S. oil companies will reduce their daily production capacity by 1 million barrels, resulting in There is a huge energy gap.
And he demanded that these companies and other industry players should take immediate action to increase the supply of gasoline, diesel and other refined products.
Businesses should work with governments to come up with concrete short-term solutions to the energy crisis.
Well, when Biden first came to power, the price of natural gas was US$2.4, and today it is US$5.2. The key is that it is still soaring, and there is no end in sight...
Regarding Biden's requirements, American energy companies It means...I have no time to pay attention to you.
Every fool knows that increasing production means lowering prices and lowering profits.
Moreover, increasing production is not something that happens in a day or two. It takes several months to increase production. Once we are ready to start increasing production, the Russian-Ukrainian war might just end at that time and Russia opens up its supply. Then American energy companies Isn't it bloody luck?
Of course, if this scene is seen by exquisite people, they will definitely praise the liberal economy of the United States. You see, the president made a request, and the capitalists didn't even bother to pay attention.
Then the American people deserve the ridiculously high energy prices...
Unable to deal with their own energy suppliers, Biden has communicated with Saudi Arabia's OPEC organization several times, but Saudi Arabia simply ignored it. There are two reasons for
to ignore it. The first is that the United States itself does not increase production. You ask me to increase production. It is clear that increasing production will result in loss of money. Why should I?
The second reason is that Biden’s relationship with Middle Eastern countries is very, very poor .
Especially compared with Trump , the princes in the Middle East all like Trump.
Saudi Arabia can be said to be an important financial backer behind Trump and has always been taken care of by Trump. Saudi Arabia has also reciprocated and purchased hundreds of billions of dollars in arms.
However, after Biden took office, he immediately drew a clear line with Trump, ordered an investigation into the murder of Khashoggi involving the Saudi Crown Prince, and even declared in public that he would make Saudi Arabia a pariah in the international community.
Not only that, Biden could not wait a day. In order to liquidate Trump’s allies, he immediately suspended the United States’ support for the multinational coalition’s military operations in Yemen . This multinational joint operation was led by Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia’s core interests.
After Biden’s series of outrageous actions, he has completely broken up with Saudi Arabia. Now he goes to ask Saudi Arabia to increase oil production, but Saudi Arabia will of course ignore it...
Biden has no choice but to go. Persuading the United States' mortal enemy Venezuela to increase oil production...
But increasing oil and gas production is closely related to technology and equipment. It does not mean increasing production. Moreover, the United States, Saudi Arabia and other oil and gas countries are very smart, and Russia Since the war in Ukraine, it has been a time to make a fortune. Isn’t it stupid to increase production at this time?
On the evening of June 2, the OPEC organization headed by Saudi Arabia announced its latest production increase plan, which only advanced the production capacity originally planned to be released in September to July and August. The overall plan has not changed at all... ...
Biden was dumbfounded, never expected that he would sit and watch the excitement of the Russia-Ukraine war, but he shot himself in the foot and could only fly into a rage and scold the American energy companies .
As for American energy companies, while selling oil to European and other countries, they are laughing so hard at the skyrocketing energy prices in the United States.
Don’t forget, the energy companies in the United States have always been the financial backers of the Republican Party, and are the mortal enemies of the Democratic Party. When Biden came to power, he talked about climate issues and promoted new energy. His essential goal was to strangle the traditional energy sources in the United States. business, dealing a fatal blow to the Republican Party.
Now that we see that Biden is so anxious and energy companies are waiting to see the excitement, who will increase production for him?
The direct result of energy shortage is skyrocketing electricity bills, and the key is that price increases are useless. The United States has already begun to shut down power ...
This is also because of the United States' "own national conditions." , the power grid facilities are aging, and more than 70% of the power grids are decades or even hundreds of years old, so faults occur frequently;
In addition, the climate change in the United States this year is relatively abnormal, with extreme high temperatures and hot weather frequently occurring, and temperatures of 40 degrees are common in Texas. Above, electricity consumption increases.
Not only has inflation reached a record high in the United States, but electricity is no longer available.
According to Reuters reported on June 6, the U.S. power department predicted that as the country encounters record high temperatures and drought this summer, power demand surges and multiple regions may have to take turns to black out.During a heat wave in mid-May, many power plants in Texas were shut down due to malfunctions, and the power department experienced transmission congestion when allocating power. As a result, the real-time electricity price for some customers once soared to more than 4,000 US dollars per megawatt hour, which was higher than usual. Nearly 170 times that of !
Energy prices are the basis of all prices. If energy prices are high, the prices of all living materials will naturally be high.
Oil companies are unwilling to increase production, what should we do?
Biden’s only way is to use new energy to generate .
Otherwise, more than 300 million Americans are watching, and prices are soaring, but Biden actually does nothing. He can neither deal with his own energy companies nor Saudi Arabia, and is still fueling the Russia-Ukraine war. What if What is the use of this president?
It would be better for him to hire a dog to be the president.
Biden, there has to be something to do.
As a result, Biden declared that the United States has entered a state of energy emergency , saying that the power supply shortage not only affects the lives of Americans, but also affects the national defense security of the United States...
On June 6, the U.S. White House issued a statement confirming the relevant Measures for local clean energy development. In the statement, Biden authorized the use of the Defense Production Act to accelerate the production of domestic clean energy technologies, covering five technical aspects: such as solar panel components, building insulation systems, heat pumps, equipment to manufacture and use clean power generation fuels, etc. .....
But here comes the key question. Almost none of the above things are available in the United States, and the most critical solar panel is not available in the United States.
Not only does it not exist, it doesn’t even have a supply chain. It cannot be produced... The United States used to have some photovoltaic industry, but it was beaten to a pulp by China in 2011, and now it is gone. Is
going to re-enter the supply chain? That is impossible. It will take 10 years to complete it. Not only that, but using American labor to generate electricity will cost even more than it does now.
In fact, Biden said that it is to develop new energy. Everyone knows that it is better to buy than to build ...
So Biden issued another announcement, allowing the United States to purchase Thailand, Malaysia , Cambodia And Vietnam imported solar panels and other key components.
Separately, the White House announced that it would not impose any new tariffs on solar energy imports for two years, a move aimed at getting stalled solar projects back on track.
Actually, are solar panels available in Southeast Asia?
There is no such thing as these new energy components, they are all in China.
China has been developing in the field of new energy for many years, and can single-handedly defeat global .
It can be said that today, the world wants to engage in solar power generation. Without China, it will either not be possible or the price will be ridiculously high.
China leads the world in the field of photovoltaic power generation. The purity of silicon wafers has reached 11 9s. The photovoltaic industry chain accounts for 90% of the global share... Moreover, China has mastered the entire industrial chain of photovoltaic power generation. No foreign components are required.
These industries that Biden wants to prioritize are all inseparable from China.
So, why does Biden want to grant exemptions to Southeast Asia.
Hey...
Biden, who had just fallen down while riding his bicycle, let out a long sigh, feeling miserable.
If I don’t import solar energy and other photovoltaic equipment from China, the voters will drive me out of office, saying that I don’t care about their life or death;
If I want to import from China, the voters will say that I have connections with China and am an undercover agent of China. .
My approval rating has dropped to an all-time low, much lower than Trump. What can I do? Blame Putin , this is because of "Putin's price increase"...
What can I do? I am telling Southeast Asia to quickly import photovoltaic equipment from China and then sell it to the United States.
As long as I am "politically correct", cover my ears, steal a bell, and pretend to be confused, no one will say anything anymore. Let's pretend to be stupid together...
However, most of China's photovoltaic industry is concentrated in Xinjiang.
Biden signed the "Forced Labor Law" at the end of last year. There have been various slanders and slanders, believing that China is enslaving Xinjiang's "automated harvesting machines"...
Just recently, he has begun to desperately build momentum for this forced labor The law will take effect this month, boycotting any products from Xinjiang.
Soon, Biden will be slapped in the face. A large number of new energy equipment from Xinjiang were resold to the United States after a one-day trip to Southeast Asia...
Of course, Biden I don’t care about being slapped in the face, anyway, the whole United States is pretending to be stupid.
Well, you may ask, can we impose sanctions on the United States and not sell photovoltaics to the United States?
The answer is no.
Because... Actually, the United States, let alone the American people without electricity, even if 1 million Americans die from the epidemic, do you think the United States cares?
The quality of life of Americans is not the core interest of the United States at all. No matter what, Wall Street and the military-industrial complex have electricity anyway. Even if the electricity price increases 100 times, they don't care.
It’s none of their business if other Americans die from the heat.
Moreover, the Russia-Ukraine war will eventually pass. The current ban on exports to the United States will only affect it for a period of time. At most, Biden will be driven out of office. However, Biden’s support rate is already the lowest. The failure of the mid-term election is already a certainty. It still needs to be Drive him out of office?
So, it’s very simple, export it when it’s time to export it, and sell it to whoever bids the highest price.
Anyway, now that Europe is suffering from war, it needs China's photovoltaic products more than ever, and imports have been increasing.
China's new energy industry has also ushered in a new round of rapid development during this special period, which has brought opportunities to the overall new energy layout. In the next 5-15 years, the oil era will eventually pass. China's overall layout of photovoltaics, wind power, UHV technology, etc., and the layout of new energy vehicles are fully mature...
Xinjiang will become a new energy center in Asia and even the world in the future. Use China's unique ultra-high voltage technology to transport to all Asia and the world.
What’s the next step? We are lagging behind in the traditional energy automobile industry, but we are very confident that we will take the lead in new energy vehicles in the future.
Our industrial closed loop will extend to every corner of the world.
Actually, does Biden know this? Of course
knows that Biden said hey, it’s none of my business. I want to block Trump quickly to prevent him from taking my position. As for you, I can just pretend.
I still have more than 2 years, so long as nothing happens, I won’t bother to care about what happens after 2 years.
Russia has locked up the ruble with energy and food, ensuring the credit of the ruble. This is indeed wonderful, but even more exciting is yet to come .
China is leading the world in the entire new energy industry chain, and this is the absolute direction for the future.
Biden wants to promote clean energy. Europe believes that traditional power generation methods are backward and politically incorrect, and they must promote new energy...
When we build a global new energy system with Xinjiang as the center, At this time, what will be the most trustworthy currency in the future?
You must know that after the disintegration of Bollington Woods, an important reason for the establishment of confidence in the US dollar was the lock-in of energy.
Don’t rush, take your time, the fun will come later.
