EIA also forecasts the Brent crude oil price will average $64 per barrel this summer, a 78% increase from last summer’s average of $36 per barrel. That price increase paired with an increase in gasoline and diesel demand will likely increase the cost of regular gasoline and diesel fuel this summer. million b/d from 2020.

Furthermore, they write, if the relative cost of cutting emissions was high in a given sector, then growing emissions alone would not solely justify major focus on cutting in that sector alone. Yet, coal-fired emissions in Alberta receive relatively little attention from environmental organizations and the public.

Biofuels grow at a slower rate due to lower crude oil prices and. The decline reflects increased domestic production of both petroleum and natural gas, increased use of biofuels, and lower demand resulting from the adoption of new vehicle fuel efficiency standards and rising energy prices. Biomass and biofuels growth is slower.
