Should the message to poor people, who are getting destroyed with very high energy costs, be "just spend $10,000 on solar"?
Environmentalists are pretty out of touch when they throw poor people under the bus and tell them to just buy a $50,000 entry-level Tesla or a $10,000 entry-level solar system.
They'll simply vote for populism if they are bled further, and price rises are a certainty with expensive renewable 'solutions'. Our grid can't even support a large expansion of solar, nor a large expansion of EVs. Costs will grow exponentially if the grid is gold-plated to handle EVs and further solar, along with expensive renewables.
