Electrification is efficiency. When we electrify our energy systems coupled with clean electricity, something remarkable occurs: significant inefficiencies disappear. As a result, in a decarbonized world, our overall energy final demand will be much lower than it is today.
Thanks @_HannahRitchie for turning Nick Eyre’s “@ecioxford excellent paper into an accessible graph and article.

Costa Rica, once home to rampant logging, has now almost doubled the size of its rainforest. They turned it all around within a generation. It can be done.

The primary energy fallacy is the idea that all primary energy from fossil fuels must be replaced with an equivalent amount of clean energy.
BUT: This is not necessary because conversion losses do not need to be replaced. More than 2/3 of all primary energy is lost as waste heat.
I first heard @MLiebreich use this term which captures this phenomenon nicely I think.
