.
In a recent interview ,the ( ex ) Russian chief spy made a few comments on energy
he is a professional , has been at the top for fourteen years

Nikolai Patrushev:
"Specialists are convinced, in fact, that a real alternative to fossil fuels as the basis of energy production won’t appear in the next few decades.
What is more, the dominant belief in the west is that the combined power generated by nuclear, hydro, wind and solar can satisfy no more than a fifth of world demand."

"Nikolai Patrushev is a former director of the Russian FSB, the successor organisation to the KGB, and the current secretary of the security council of Russia. This interview first appeared in Russian on RG and was translated by Cameron Johnston"
