They use a very small amount of oil compared to the electricity produced. I'm sure you'll write off solar with some red herring as well, but solar is growing the fastest any power source ever has. With solar, EV's, and electric heat pumps, we will build a future of clean energy abundance. And good old fashioned capitalism will be pushing these technologies ahead and their widespread diffusion into society more than anything.Kinda like wind towers..... Nobody seems to realize how man hundreds of gallons of oil wind towers use to lubricate their turbines let alone building them, transporting them, erecting them and maintaining them. Yeah those power lines to those towers don't take any energy to manufacture and build either.....
