Solarpunk seems far less dystopian, so while it is one successor, it's by no means the preordained one.

Gibson has a post-capitalistic Jackpot trilogy, but that seems to have disappeared into the "post-apocalyptic" box.

Amazon have adapted the first book. It's by far the best adaptation of any Gibson book, according to this commenter

Off-topic-ish, do you have any solarpunk media (books, movie, whatever) you can recommend?

I won't even take a crack at trying to understand all of the time/reality things happening in the Jackpot trilogy.

Ooh that's tough. Solarpunk and hightech don't mix!

For consolation:

Book: Aldous Huxley, Island (Rumor has it Leo Dicaprio is adapting it)

Anime: Nausicaa

Like Gibson would say, solarpunk is already here: https://youtu.be/JAobfMSX9dg

(That's the plane from Nausicaa)

There's also the Chobani ad

(Not usually thought of as such, but Neal Stephenson's Diamond Age is solarpunk in my book-- and pays direct homage to Ralph Merkle!!)

Edit: tangential to oncular comment, Switzerland (& Slovenia btw) seems kinda solarpunk to me
