The EIA is still publishing their energy forecasts through the shutdown. Here's an interesting trend showing gasoline demand is dropping. That's despite vehicle miles travelled still trending up

One of those why-didn't-I-think-of-that moments
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.
