Fossil fuels are empowering. If you want to go somewhere, you go out and buy gas. Renewables are controllable. If you are using too much electricity, the government can limit your use. That’s what we have seen over the last few years with brownouts and rolling blackouts.
The liberal solution is "progressive" pricing for energy, just as they do with taxes.
You can have electricity, but if you want more than the minimum amount that THEY decide you should have, you will have to pay more for it. In some situations, much more.
