Yes, this is correct. And the reason is because our capitalist classes have decided that it is not sufficiently profitable, so they're not going to do it.
We must understand this reality. Capital *cannot* be relied upon to address the climate crisis.

“We have to stop burning things. We just don’t need to burn things for energy anymore.”
"I do feel like what we’re doing now, what Oilfield Witness is doing, is making a difference.” Still, for Wilson, the ultimate goal isn’t tighter methane rules—it’s an end to the age of combustion itself. “We have to stop burning things. We just don’t need to burn things for energy anymore.”

IMO, the heat pump water heater credit was the best deal for homeowners in the IRA. Upgrade by the end of the year to qualify for the tax credit.
If you are on gas, operating costs are just slightly lower. You will save loads vs everything else.

The government is giving away $2,000 to homeowners who upgrade their water heaters — but the incentives disappear in under two months
The increased performance translates to lower electric bills.

New Cornell-led study is the first ever to provide state-by-state projections of carbon emissions and water use by data centers. Estimates that data centers are on track to add 24-44M metric tons of CO2 pollution annually thru 2030, roughly equivalent to adding 5-10M cars per year to US roadways.

The analysis also examines water use and offers a road map for lower emissions through states with considerable renewable resources.
