(A belated wrap.) The big theme on FT Energy Source this week was whether rising crude oil prices will affect economic recovery:
- The IEA got worried over world crude oil prices
- But Opec was quiet on $80+ oil
- While James Hamilton questioned whether high oil prices would really ‘shock’ this time
Also this week:
- Cutting Europe’s emissions by 80% won’t cost much
- Vattenfall’s departing CEO on being a ‘lone wolf’ on climate
- Detroit and the green revolution
- Wind power: Free-trading China, mercantilist US
- Was the UK first to withhold climate data?
- The deepest rift of all still hampering post-Copenhagen talks
