I try to imagine how Iran tries to block the sun for the European solar pannels in the streets of Hormus

 
Energy independence is indeed political independence, but even with more investment in renewables, I think the world is still going to be fairly heavily dependent on fossil fuels. Renewables create more flexibility and add to the overall grid, but it's hard to replace FF. I wish we could.
