While it will take a few years for it to reach the $75 price level than guarantees 100% renewables, we need that time to actually deploy all of those renewables. Also, with a stable, predictable policy businesses will be more inclined to consider this as they look forward rather than immediately trying to get it repealed (such as what happens when sudden transitions make billion dollar investments unprofitable). There’s still going to be resistance, but not nearly as much.
