Original Note:
Electricity is not expensive because of gas. While it's true gas sets the wholesale price, that's only a fraction of RE costs. The rest is covered by subsidies, without which RE would not survive. Every RE source in operation is more expensive than the average gas price. https://x.com/LoftusSteve/status/1831369989091201352?t=4UzuCXhcMqZu7zFZyiOWQA&s=19
