Because it takes time to build this stuff.
And because initial builds were based on subsidies to help wind and solar get to economies of sale and technical maturity.

It will take us decades to build all the wind, solar and other renewables to build a fully renewables grid. Since wind became competitive we've moved to something like 15% wind on grids around the world, in a couple of decades.

So who is doing this stuff today? Everyone, all over the globe. But the process of change is just beginning.

Looks like the flat earthers are really living in denial today .

Anywho , came across this presentation by Amory Lovins . It's pretty long ( 1 hour ) however it is really interesting the stuff he talks about . There's some historical stuff but there is some very up to date interesting data . The pace of change will blow your mind .

Well worth the watch if you can find the time .
