The problem is, the way I see it, all energy use is connected.
Basically the problem we have is energy consumption grows faster than clean energy production. So requiring more green energy in this context still sucks.
Even where I live where all of our energy is green (at least in the grid), extra energy can be sold either via selling it to other provinces/states, or by making deals with companies to do their production here where energy is cheap and green.
Energy is a commodity on a market. If you use it to inefficiently move people, you can’t use it for other things. Remember that to move a 150 lbs person in a car, you have to move about a ton and a half of car…
