There's somewhat a recent Planet Money episode (Green energy gridlock[1]) that talks a little bit about this. There are massive hurdles in the US to getting new energy projects actually connected to the grid because of supposed fears of overloading the infrastructure. The result is energy prices stay high and the number of green energy projects stays low.
