Original Note:
As the author notes in a follow-up post, this figure for US energy production is too low by a factor of 10. https://twitter.com/FenixAmmunition/status/1686776109302489088?s=20 This comparison also ignores the much higher efficiency of electricity. Most power available in gasoline/diesel is lost as waste heat. https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/atv-ev.shtml
