Still built at absolutely massive scale around the world without subsidies. With many countries phasing out their renewable subsidies because they aren’t needed anymore.

Unsubsidized solar and storage is today in much of the world cheaper than coal and fossil gas.

The renewable subsidies stil existing simply add fuel to the already raging fire that is renewable buildout.

Renewable suffers a little bit from having renewable infrastructure costs considered a new subsidy, while fossil fuel costs are just kind of baked in.

If we included the cost of cleaning up fossil fuel byproducts… well, we don’t even know how much it will cost to clean up all that carbon.

Then we will have to work out how we bill the international relations cost of having to deal with petrochemical producers…

that used to be true, but it's not really true any longer; they could even do well without subsidies, but no industry will ever give up free money.
