Your comment made me think of something different, I wonder how much regulations and taxes prevent people from having more money they could put in to renewables - essentially a free-market environmentalism question
how much are non-renewables necessary because of the cost of regulations... I suppose the question doesn't have a definitive answer as we don't know how much tech would develop without such regulations, although you might be able to estimate losses due to current taxes / regs and what could be spent on current tech

Yes, I 100% agree with you. Free market guiding the transition to renewable, would be the fastest, most efficient and painless way.
Govt got involved, everything went to hell. In Germany, prices skyrocketed, and even CO2 emissions went up, because Govt botched the transition
