In this episode of Energy Newsbeat – Conversations in Energy, Stuart Turley interviews Kent Williamson, author of American Heat Engine, Hydrocarbons and the Power of the United States. They discuss the vital role of hydrocarbons in American history, touching on topics such as the impact of coal, oil, and natural gas, and how the U.S. has utilized private mineral rights to become a leading energy producer. Kent also highlights energy security issues, particularly in California, and the global importance of LPG in providing energy solutions to underserved populations. The conversation explores energy's complex role in shaping geopolitics and the economy, with Kent stressing the need for a better understanding of the energy industry.

We are in an energy revolution. Energy consumers are waking up to the fact that high energy prices come from "Green Energy Policies" that impact and hurt the environment and economy more than they provide electricity. Kent's book tells us how we got here and has some great insights as a guide for where we need to go.

I look forward to more conversations with Kent as we move into the next energy era.
