    Definitely a good time for anyone who can to shift to a decentralized grid less determined by fuels, particularly if they’re imported. Of course non-carbon power generation, storage, and transport needs replacement but it’s not as immediate. Say for example a country has sufficient solar, battery, and EV transportation and for whatever reason natural gas and fuel is not around, the country can still function for years before a battery shortage becomes dire. In the case of fuel power generation, and transport things can come to a halt overnight if ever for whatever reason there is a fuel shortage.
