If you analyze the effects of doubling solar generation once in the United States on natural gas demand, then analyze the effect of another doubling, then it becomes clear why there isn't the kind of nationwide infrastructure, tax and regulatory support for expanding solar across the USA that exists in countries that have to import natural gas, eg China, Japan, Germany etc.
Natural gas just has more resources to buy politicians in the USA than solar does, that's the nature of the problem. Maybe the investor in this story should have spent have his crypto fortune on buying Texas politicians before even beginning this project - but buying off a lot of politicians is expensive, it's more the province of billionaires than of millionaires.
