I had always heard the reason most of the wind turbines here in the bay area have stopped is they got subsidies to build them but not to maintan them, so when they fail, there is no financial justification to repair. I am glad if that's changed.

You can destroy any power infrastructure, but destroying distributed infrastructure is a lot harder, and the users of it live near it and protect it, unlike power lines out in the middle of rural areas. If solar capacity could not be made available with billions to spend, other distributed infrastructure would have made more sense, even if it was distributed diesel or natural gas generators and mini-grids. They are less efficient, but make some of that back with the lower transmission distance. And we're getting better at making this sort of stuff.
