That, in itself, doesn't reduce emissions. When Wind, Solar and Batteries (or other less-carbon/methane-emitting technologies) are deployed _instead_ of other power generation tech, that reduces emissions.
But assuming that's what you meant - then great, but - the effort is not massive, relative to the necessary extent of replacement. And in some places, and by some governments, there's almost no effort.

That is the problem. We are several decades too late, considering the warming effects. We need to be in another phase, now.
