The market: a snapshot • Demand will be down in ’09 – but the amount of expected decline is stabilizing • Cushions thick: stocks, p’n capacity • OPEC has tried to follow demand down with production cuts • Demand revival depends on economy

The questions • What drives prices? • Fundamentals (supply and demand) • Investment flows • Currency fluctuations • Will OPEC wait too long to raise output? • Non-OPEC output? • Role of speculators?

Renewables instead of oil – 1 From Treasury Department explanations of budget oil, gas provisions: “The [measure or its result], like other oil and gas preferences the administration proposes to repeal, distorts markets by encouraging more investment in the oil and gas industry than would occur under a neutral system…”
Renewables instead of oil – 2 “…To the extent the [measure or result] encourages overproduction of oil and gas, it is detrimental to long-term energy security and is also inconsistent with the administration’s policy of reducing carbon emissions and encouraging the use of renewable energy sources through a cap-and-trade program.”

Oil & gas in 1981 38.1 x 1015 btu $10.9 billion subsidies (percentage vs. cost depletion and expensing E&D costs) Ethanol in 2007 550 x 1012 btu $3.2 billion subsidies Arithmetic of subsidies - 1 29¢/MMbtu $5.82/MMbtu Source: “Federal Financial Interventions and Subsidies in Energy Markets 2007,” Energy Information Administration, April 2008
Oil & gas in 2007 30.57 x 1015 btu $1.74 billion subsidies (various, mostly for small producers) Ethanol in 2007 550 x 1012 btu $3.2 billion subsidies Arithmetic of subsidies - 2 $5.82/MMbtu 5.7¢/MMbtu
Cost to displace oil and gas • By 5% from projected 2020 usage levels • Assuming $6/MMbtu subsidization of 2.93 quads of solar, wind, and biofuels • Requires subsidies totaling $17.6 billion NOTE: 2007 subsidy levels: solar $7.16/MMbtu, wind $6.87/MMbtu (production), $5.82/MMbtu ethanol (consumption/blending)
