My other question is about what you mentioned a few times: “breakthrough technologies further from the market”. In this article, you talked about perhaps the same thing: “emerging tech not yet cost-competitive”.
When a technology is far from the market, who determines when it is a breakthrough technology if it's not the market itself? Does that then fall to government bureaucrats? Government is not typically nimble. I think we heard previously about how sometimes it takes a year to get a project application through for these things. Government is not known to be nimble in responding to market needs. If the market hasn't already done it, how would this turn into anything but a bureaucratic nightmare if the government is the one trying to make the determination on what technology should be funded or what technologies are about to break through?
