You realize that's already happening on a much bigger scale. Most of our solar panels - whose manufacturing process is extremely energy intensive - come from China, a country with about 70% of its electricity coming from coal. And of course, the inputs to that manufacturing process are themselves mainly made in China, again with cheap highly polluting coal power.
