The only reason they would need to push out their projections is because conservatives like Trump and Smith are sabotaging renewable projects. Trump has cancelled multiple renewable projects, some of them in the final stages of the project.
Smith has killed $33B in renewable investment in Alberta.
These things may slow down peak Demand but we are a couple of major technology breakthroughs away from a major shift. Japan's Perovskite solar cell advancement along with China's sodium-ion solid state battery advancement are the kind of building blocks that will accelerate society away from fossil fuels.
Fighting these advancements is a lot like doubling down on Blockbuster when streaming became available.
But I am sure you are correct and that it's the Liberals fault that blah blah blah and it has nothing to do with a bunch of rich people lying to you about how this is going to play out so that they can squeeze you for every ounce of profit that they can get.
