I'm 100% for filling up and even drastically expanding the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. I'm also for ending fossil fuels (we can synthesize plastics without fossil fuels) and keeping as much fossil fuel as possible underground. The Strategic Reserve's whole purpose is to sit underground for the most part, so it's compatible with an anti-fossil-fuel perspective. One way a massive Reserve could help fight fossil fuel production is because it devalues arguments that we need to expand drilling permits. With a big enough reserve, we can reduce permits on federal lands to just about nothing with plenty of time to drill them in case of an emergency like a war or something.
