Its not entirely a scam, but it was a prophylactic (that we didn't use) not a cure. Shit being fucked fucks it worse too.
Like trying to put a condom on a dick half rotted from syphilis.
Solar allows independence from grid companies for people with the land or rooftop to spare. For the rest of the population, solar farms are a massive source of clean energy that shouldn't be ignored, even with incidents like this. Frankly, the panels aren't the major part of the cost of a solar farm after the land, storage and distribution network.
Nuclear is a good second or third choice if storage isn't sufficient. But I'll say if fusion ever leaves the lab, it'll be a different world.
