Companies and governments are more interested in short-term solutions.
- It's still too easy to burn coal and oil, despite the pollution. When power plants are forced to pay for their pollution they will quickly change to renewable energy.
- It's cheaper to build a coal- or oil-fired power plant for the first year. After that the cost of coal or oil increases year after year. The cost of transporting coal and oil increases year after year. The cost of the carbon pollution increases year after year.
- Solar power towers cost more for the first year. They cost more to build, partly because they are new. As more and more are built, they will become cheaper. Costs for the second year are nothing much, just some maintenance costs. Ditto for next year and all the following years.
