yes indeed--good thing that bad ol XOM and others are around and in business so you and others can have those solar panels you spout off about.

How Much Oil Does It Take to Make a Solar Panel?As we have seen, manufacturing a solar panel is a complex process and involves many steps where oil is used. It becomes difficult to know exactly how much oil is used in production. The reason for this is the difference in the working of manufacturing sites.

To generate the world’s current solar electricity output, which is approximately 87 TWh/day, it takes around 17 million barrels of oil per day. Given the world’s daily oil production of around 85 million barrels, it would take roughly three years to manufacture enough solar panels to match current global solar electricity generation.
