"The starting point for energy security today as it has always been is diversification of supplies and sources"

- Daniel Yergin

About this Quote

This quote by Daniel Yergin highlights the importance of diversifying power sources as well as supplies in order to accomplish power security. This principle of diversification has actually been around for a very long time as well as is still relevant today. By expanding energy resources and also materials, countries can minimize their dependence on a solitary source of energy, which can be susceptible to disturbance. This can help to ensure that power demands are met also in the event of a disturbance in one resource. Furthermore, branching out energy sources can help to reduce the environmental influence of power production, as various sources can have different ecological effects. Inevitably, diversity of energy sources and materials is essential for achieving power protection in the present as well as in the future.
