Well then that's good for the US renewable energy sector, no?

  Or the Chinese renewable energy sector.

  No, because the US has fallen so far behind in just 10 years. It’s not the knowledge and tech, but manufacturing-of and at-scale-use of renewables that matters here. We can’t just-in-time install infrastructure a across the entire country in a matter of weeks or months.

  That's good only for inflation, nothing else. Renewables are included, after inflation and tariffs they won't become more attractive compared to carbohydrates.

  Not always. Inflation often leads to higher interest rates. This puts a damper on financing for renewable energy projects.
