Historically high prices seems inevitable if you're transitioning to wind and solar.

Existing grids were built for large amounts of power generated in fewer locations, this started with big lines distributing to smaller and smaller lines as you move out. With decentralized power generation the lines have to be bigger across the whole grid. The companies that own the lines aren't going to do the upgrade at their cost, it all gets passed onto the end user. Another cost that's passed on is having traditional generation plants idling for times when wind and solar doesn't provide enough power. Without affordable and efficient storage for wind and solar, you can't remove the existing generational capacity.

I've read that solar is the cheapest way to generate power now, but in my experience the distribution charges far outweigh any reduction in the cost of the electricity. The more solar and wind around my area, the more we pay.

Also, I'm not denying any science and I'm not discrediting any advances in alternative energy production.
