If renewable technology is expected to get cheaper in the near future nobody will invest in it now. As that investment will depreciate in value faster than its earnings, at least in the first few years.
'Old' technologies don't evolve that fast, so they don't depreciate in value as fast either.
That is - as long as renewables don't get much cheaper than non-renewables, because then the gains get too big to worry about depreciation.
We're not there, not yet, maybe never.
If we want to go green we may need to pay for it all the way.
