Why doesn't the capitalist economy invest in cheap renewable energy?

Everything about energy production and storage.

Did you actually listen to the video? They explicitly mention that capitalist countries do subsidize renewable energy, but it’s unreliable due to political fluctuations. Subsidies can be abruptly discontinued with a change in administration (e.g. like new US administration cuts funding). The main point of the video is the investment behavior of energy companies regarding renewable energy, and why, from a Return on Investment perspective, renewables are still not competitive.
No i didn't, thanks for the summary. Seems like capitalism is going against the tankie propaganda and investing in things that are not profitable since capitalists are not evil.
being anti-capitalist is not the same as being a tankie. conflating the 2 is how labels get diluted
American capitalism and capitalism are 2 different things. America is a 3rd world anti humane shithole, while europe is just fine.
also absolutely true!
i’d even say that anti-capitalist and anti-capitalism are different things too
