If you need more proof that most planned / under construction generation is wind and solar, here you go. You can see it in the links below, which are the interconnection queues of various ISO/RTOs throughout the country, which cover most of the country except the Southeast, MT/PT outside of California, Alaska, and Hawaii.

Here's Texas (ERCOT) http://mis.ercot.com/misapp/GetReports.do?reportTypeId=15933&reportTitle=GIS%20Report&showHTMLView=&mimicKey
Here's the Great Plains (SPP) http://opsportal.spp.org/Studies/GIActive
MISO has an interactive map: https://api.misoenergy.org/PublicGiQueueMap/index.html
NY's is in a somewhat confusing spreadsheet contained within this link https://www.nyiso.com/interconnections
Here's New England (ISONE) https://irtt.iso-ne.com/reports/external

For the Mid-Atlantic & OH & Northern Illinois (PJM) you have to filter out by status the projects that aren't happening or are already done: https://www.pjm.com/planning/services-requests/interconnection-queues.aspx

California (CAISO) doesn't seem to have their's publicly available without access to their system for some reason, but of course they have more wind and solar than most states and are starting to phase out gas now.

As for the states outside of these markets, utilities have to publish integrated resource plans (IRPs) that show their future plans and projects, including which generators they plan to build and retire. They're somewhat hard to read, but usually they get reported on to summarize what's in them. Here is the summary of NVE's for example:

there's a place for the government to get involved and waste large piles of $$$

Yeah, I didn't say it was a good idea.  I imagine it would be impossible to implement, and the reward wouldn't be worth it.

 i think this would be more probable in heavy or light industry.   It would come down to paint.   Residential would be much tougher.

The share of renewables in the global energy system needs to more than double by the end of the 2020s ­— with $10trn of fossil-fuel investment redirected — if the world is to limit climate change to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency (Irena).

Renewable energy should supply 57% of global power by 2030, up from 26% today, requiring a fourfold increase in the speed of renewables growth, the agency explained at its annual assembly in Abu Dhabi.

This articles sets a goal, this is global, of quadrupling W&S by 2030.  What would it take for that to happen in reality?  This is global, and likely presumes no increase in demand.

We have been doing some projects lately using white-topping. It's essentially a concrete layer over existing asphalt that has failed. We've had some success with it. It isn't cheap, but it seems to be lasting longer than traditional asphalt repaving.

using asphalt as a base for concrete might be the best
