I think that a lucid analysis of this time period is to connect most of the current conflicts happening right now with a common thread of oil powers attempting one last desperate time to consolidate a weakening control over the geopolitical flow of power, I collectively call this global set of wars that has the Ukraine War at the focal point The Last Great Oil War. Alternative energy isn’t just an alternative for individuals wanting independence, alternative energy represents independence and resiliency on many different scales and in many different ways.
Both russia and Ukraine are beginning to utilize electric dirt bikes on the frontline, this is especially remarkable for russia given that they are ostensibly an oil power that in my opinion launched the Ukraine War in large part in order to try to grasp a more decisive leverage over fossil fuels in the region as they perceived their power waning. For russia to then turn around and start using electric vehicles on the frontline because they are the most practical and efficient tools seems a straightforward indicator of how late we are in the fossil fuel era.
Similar patterns can be seen in how Ukraine is adopting solar and alternative energy because they are more resilient forms of power generation during war than fossil fuels and fossil fuel infrastructure.
All of this is to say I think it is more accurate to call Agency Solar’s strongest selling point.
As bad as things are, I’m still glad that the oil wars are driven by greed and not scarcity. Had the option been mad max things would have been so much more desperate, as things stand, a world with energy and hope is still an option.

Easy to blow up an oil refinery compared to a field of solar panels. Solar is so obviously a strategic defense necessity.
Ideally panels should be decentralized, otherwise you just have to target batteries and power stations
