Interesting point. Basically the strategy is to penalize existing fossil sources of energy by making it very expensive. This then works as a subsidy for expensive alternatives to reach a critical mass and get to a tipping point. The hope is that these alternatives will get cheaper with volume and with successive waves of newer and more efficient versions.

Sounds noble and everything but I agree with you regarding the TIMING of this initiative.
