I agree about messaging. I'm on board with firing people up over electricity bills, but generation is a small part of residential bills. If the attempted solution matches the messaging - just build more wind/solar - without addressing larger issues, then bills won't go down and people will be pissed

Also, while wind and solar do put downward pressure on wholesale prices, all the new (and existing) gas will remain on the margin for a long time, delaying and blunting price drops. Waiting for supply-side changes to trickle down will be too slow (and too small) to register with most anyone.
