A couple of things about this huge dilemna….

Forget “peak oil” for now. Eventually we’ll get there due to the fact that oil and gas are finite resources.

But we haven’t even reached “peak demand” yet. Data centers are poping up like mushrooms and along with crypto mining are putting demands on the electrical grid that nobody came close to prdicting just 10 years ago.

Add to that the growing electrical deman from the developing world….

Thank god for renewables. Their footprint may still be relatively small but their impact on electrical generation is not inconsequential- and it is growing rapidly- geometrically.
