> Solar with battery storage is about to be so inexpensive and rapid to deploy that perhaps 100% of new capacity should be added this way.

Exactly because solar is so inexpensive, it means the private sector does not need government help. Utilities do add a lot of solar power themselves, see for example [1]: 52% (32.5 GW) solar, 29% (18.2 GW) battery storage, 12% (7.5 GW) wind for 2025.
