Jake Rivers

Jake Rivers cut his teeth as a petroleum engineer in the Permian Basin before the shale revolution made him rethink everything he knew about energy markets. He watched firsthand as fracking technology transformed American energy independence, and he's been analyzing energy disruption ever since. After earning his MBA from Texas A&M, Jake joined an energy-focused investment firm where he built a reputation for understanding both traditional fossil fuels and the emerging renewable sector. Unlike many analysts who champion one side or the other, Jake sees the energy transition as a complex, multi-decade evolution with opportunities in both camps. His analysis helped investors navigate the 2020 oil price crash and identify the renewable energy stocks that would soar in the recovery. Jake writes from Houston but travels constantly to wind farms, solar installations, and oil fields, keeping his finger on the pulse of energy's transformation. His insights bridge the gap between old energy and new, making him essential reading during this historic transition.
