Not that obvious when some tax payers will pay for new energy infrastructure and then also watch their prices go up because it wasn't built near them.

You mess with the markets at your peril. If you pay people to produce electricity that can't be consumed then you will waste a lot of money.

If the transmission capacity is limited you need to expose that signal to the market, not attempt to hide it.
