When I first read the titile, I thought that the US is going to have to build A LOT to triple global production. Then it occured to me that the author means the US is pledging to make deals and agreements which enable other countries to build their own. Sometimes I think the US thinks too much of itself and that’s also very much part of American branding.

Where are my renewable bros at? Tell me this is bad.

    Probably because we can’t reach energy demands with just renewable energy.

    You should look up how the power grid works. Most energy is generated on demand. When the sun isn’t out and the wind isn’t blowing, you have to rely on stored energy.

    I don’t know if you’ve been paying attention to energy storage technology, but it’s not very good right now. Until it improves, foregoing additional sources of energy that we can generate on demand is asinine.

    To be honest though, you’re just a victim of propaganda that exists to funnel as much money to Solar as possible. Be careful. Whenever there is a bunch of money being passed around, there will also be a bunch of misinformation and grifters.
