Despite all the noise renewables make up 90% of new capacity in the US.
We are witnessing the complete transformation of the grid to renewables. The question is if it takes 10 years or 20 years depending on how quickly we deploy incentives to phase out existing capacity.

- ViewTrick1002 1y agoRenewables have been the unsubsidized cheapest energy source for a while now. Recently unsubsidized renewables and storage started undercutting fossil fuels in major markets around the world. This is what is so interesting with renewable energy. They are the first energy source since the advent of fossil fuels lowering the price floor of energy globally. Removing the credits will like I said only shift the implementation period due to using tax money to tilt the scale in one way or the other.
