Fossil fuel companies choose the president and legislature in the US—not exclusively, but they do evidently at least have veto power, and the current president campaigned on an anti-renewables platform which he has delivered on. Bipartisan tariff policy in the US is basically completely locking Chinese solar panels and EVs out of the market, doubling the costs of those products to US consumers and sabotaging any chance of future competitiveness in heavy industry. I don't know if the same thing is happening with Japanese air conditioning systems.
