GCPA Oct, 214 The Role of Shale Gas in North American and Global Power Markets Scott W. Tinker Bureau of Economic Geology The University of Texas at Austin, Austin
Framing Conundrum A majority of the educated public do not know how electricity is made nor do they really care. As a result, the public is free to not like everything. We need to take the energy conversation to a different place.

Tinker s Top Ten 1. Governments, industry and academe must work together; we all play a role in objective, balanced energy education. 2. The scale of energy demand is difficult to comprehend; energy transitions take many, many decades. 3. Energy security affordable, available, reliable, sustainable drives the energy mix and should be the goal of energy policy. 4. Energy efficiency is underappreciated; individuals matter! 5. Diverse energy portfolios are inevitable and healthy. 6. Renewables are growing but will remain regional supplements until major advances are made in energy storage. 7. Shale will play a global role in the energy future; above ground challenges are as important as below ground. 8. Natural gas and nuclear are the new foundational energies. 9. Oil and coal are abundant at the right price, and difficult to replace as transportation and electricity fuels. 1. Energy, the economy and the environment are linked.
