In 2019 we built ~500 large renewable energy projects. Total 180GW, or about 2 per day.
We can and should built about x2-x3 more. Current bottlenecks is NIMBY, competing fossil assets, and transmission.
It will be hard, so feel "ill but hopeful".

Energy projects generally produce or help deliver energy for the locale that creates and funds them. That means there is political will for them, locally.
CCS projects benefit the global climate, but not the local taxpayers directly. I’m all for them but your average climate denier is not going to be onboard. It’s way beyond being a hard sell. Hopeful is not the feeling that naturally arises here.
