Look at Tesla:
50% growth Year over year, highly profitable.
They make EV, grid batteries and solar.
The price of solar PV is dropping so fast that solar electricity will be almost free in a few years.
Today it cost just a fraction to charge an EV compared to fuel a gas car, and the price of EV is dropping every year.
Basically just economically it will not be worth it to extract coal and oil out of the ground before climate change is a real problem.
Renewable are following an exponential curves but they are still small compared to oil and coal but project their growth for the next 10 years and you will see a very different picture.
Tony Seba predicted accurately the transition almost 10 year ago.

- kaba0 3y agoWhat about the insane amount of plastic produced? Also, EVs are hardly a solution, if you account for all the batteries they are hardly better. Public transportation, even when not EV is a much more climate-friendly solution, there is no reason to transport a 100kg human with a 1500kg vehicle just for fun.
