This is in the “no shit” category for me. Switching to 1950s era tech gives you 1950s-era results. Switching to methane was the wrong idea. You have to go to nuclear* if you’re in a renewables-starved area, where the sun doesn’t shine, the wind doesn’t blow, and everything is too flat and dry for hydro (or geothermal).
*Even then, you have waste to energy as an option, provided you have the right filters. We have staggering amounts of garbage.
