The problem solar will create is that solar doesn't work for highrises. It works for suburbs. Electricity companies will be forced (more and more) to tax suburbs for nothing (for the sun, Louis XVI-style) to keep reasonable energy prices in cities.
Unless of course, cities think ahead for once and city hall gets large solar collectors (at least the physical area) along power lines NOW.
Coal fired power stations work for high rises and for the suburbs.
Battery backed wind and solar farms work for high rises and for the suburbs (see, for example: South Australia).
