If we had a constant wind source where we live, we would probably be using it. There are solar farms here, but few houses with solar panels generating enough energy to power an entire house. The costs could be lower, but local and major companies are determined to wring all the money they can out of house owners with or without state or federal support. Even without large storage battery banks significant additions to power generation can be made during high load periods by reducing grid demand which is mainly during peak daylight hours.
Humans have been using refined petroleum products since about 1860 at an ever accelerated usage since then. That is a blip in the history of mankind. Coal of course has been used long before this.

We could return to an era before fossil fuel use, but how many will volunteer to do without?
One problem in the US is that we do not reprocess spent nuclear fuel like they do in other countries. Why? There are also safer nuclear fuel alternatives than uranium and plutonium.
Wind turbines may come and go, but the demand for electric power will always be increasing across the world. Don't complain, build a better mousetrap and the world will either beat you or beat a path.
