I agree with you that "your app using 15% less power" is not a priority and that governments should be more involved. However, "nationalizing and seizing energy corporations " makes no difference, either.

What is your aim for the energy sector here?

To decarbonise it requires a lot of capital investment and innovation and it's only pragmatic to involve the private sector through the right incentives (both carrot and stick). It's also pragmatic to involve the state because private companies are not very good at projects that require high capital investments for very long term goals (for example, developing and building nuclear plants).
