I’m guessing you go back to the days of Ross Shafer. Those were by far the funniest seasons of all.
Here are a couple more recent events that you need to consider.
China's Largest Wind Company Blows into Texas
The article covers a recent event but it also covers previous events such as in 2015 with the tax credits and 2014 with the new transmission lines as a substantial capital investment in reducing emissions.
Welcome to a New Chapter of Corporate Renewable Purchasing
Most of the companies may be planning and coordinating with short time goals in mind but they are also looking at the longer term. For example: Mars established 2040 as a year to plan around. But any date between 2035 and 2050 can be used.
The type of nonsense you are advocating is currently bankrupting Europe and destroying the reliability of their power grid. You want to bring it here... smart... very smart. Fortunately, there is a good chance that there will be a new sheriff in town after the next general election. He doesn’t seem to be buying into energy sources which require massive government subsidies, have been a massive failure where ever they are tried, are a huge eye sore and destroy millions of birds and bats who play important roles in the environment.
If you live off the grid and are willing to maintain storage batteries, inverters, solar cells and windmills they can lower the amount of propane, diesel or gas that you use in your generator and might make sense... Most likely it will take many, many years to recoup your investment and it also will not pencil out unless you too are taking some type of subsidy from the government. But at least there is a chance. Government policies forcing utility companies to adopt “renewables” other than hydroelectric and possibly geothermal have all been massive boondoggles.
I am certain that you will berate any source that I quote so I have provided several. There are literally an unlimited number to choose from which all say the same thing. Where wind and solar have been tried on a large scale by utility companies they have been a massive failure.

I go all the way back to JP Patches.
Oh, man! Now we’re getting into ancient times. How about Engineer Walt, Brakeman Bill, Wunda Wunda (my wife’s doctor’s mother, BTW), Cap’n Puget, and Stan Boreson? My kid sister - she turns 60 this summer - has a great collection of J.P. memorabilia.
Not quite that far back. I do know the Ranger Ricks, both male and female, with Rocky the Racoon. KCQP or KSTW, but you may have outgrown the cartoons by then. Actually grew up in Vancouver, but we got the signals.
Mars & Steelcase are science authorities? Not interested in MARKETING?
“he is the chief sustainability officer “
Memo to self: sell any stocks in companies who have a CSO...
How many companies have pandered to Jesse Jackson over the years? Was that because America is racist, or because Jesse was good at shaking them down?
With a B.S. degree in mechanical engineering, Bill Nye is no scientist.
