Basically yes. "Going green" increases energy prices and thus comes with a disadvantage regarding the cost of production/doing business. This cost is proportional to the relative offset to the global energy prices caused by green energy. So if the shale gas revolution drags down energy prices, it becomes politically harder to maintain the "go green" plan over here.
