Benefits derived from ending The War on Fossil Fuels Peace Dividends America First Energy Conference Benefits derived from ending The War on Fossil Fuels Monetizing human, industrial and ecological benefits Paul Driessen • November 9, 2017

Economic resurgence Curbing the Federal Leviathan Unleashing American muscle and ingenuity

Electricity prices Indiana-Kentucky-Virginia average Germany Family rate: 35¢ per kWh Business & Industry: 18¢ California Family rate: 19¢ per kWh Business rate: 18¢ per kWh Industry rate: 14.5¢ per kWh Indiana-Kentucky-Virginia average Family rate: 11.7¢ per kWh Business rate: 9.5¢ per kWh Industry rate: 6.5¢ per kWh

Hospital electricity costs Inova Fairfax Women’s & Children’s Hospital $1.6 million/yr at 8¢ per kWh – Virginia cost $3.6 million at 18¢ per kWh – CA/Germany cost

U.S. electricity consumption United States electricity use: 3.5 billion MW-hours per year At 8¢ per kWh = $280 billion/yr At 18¢ per kWh = $630 billion/yr H.F. Lee 920-MW combined cycle gas power plant, North Carolina Wind in Colorado • Solar in California

Effects of high electricity prices

Regulatory Peace Dividends $9 million per life saved $9 billion Peace Dividend $1 trillion in electricity cost increases

Oil & Gas leasing revenues Federal leasing & production revenues $24 billion in 2008 Only $6 billion in 2016 Federal recoverable oil and gas: $60 trillion in value $70 billion in potential 10-year revenue

Serious natural climate risks Rockport, TX after Harvey Harvey ended a record 12-year hurricane drought Geographic extent of Pleistocene glaciers

Crony corporatists & politicians

Fossil versus renewable jobs MegaWatt-hours per worker * Coal: 7,750 Gas: 3,800 Wind: 835 Solar: 98 2,000-MW super-critical coal-fired power plant in WV 20-MW solar power plant in Hungary * Source: US Department of Energy; American Enterprise Institute

Benefits of carbon dioxide Carbon Dioxide: The Miracle Molecule – Greening Planet Earth 1,600 coal-fired power plants planned or under construction worldwide: 2016

Productivity and safety

The Peace Dividends will be YUGE! 95% of all US counties voted Trump-Pence
