You are projecting a lot. Europe is obsessed with green energy. As soon as we in the UK start seeing any tangible benefits of green energy i.e, lower prices which is the main thing anyone who isn't an upper middle class liberal cares about then i'll be on here singing it's praises.

Green energy is challenging because it has many times less density then every other form out there, among other reasons.

I'm not confident that any of us will ever see lower prices due to green energy. Why would the power company who currently makes $XX billions of dollars per year ever provide that same service for $(XX-YY) billions of dollars per year when they could pocket the cost savings themselves and pump up their stock value?

Aside from privately owned solar/wind/battery on your own home, there's no evidence that I've seen anyway that indicates when utilities move to more green energy generation that those savings get passed on to customers. Perhaps, there are examples out there somewhere.

I wish that was true…
