Environmental activist incorporating many countries ,the true environmental, climate, and health costs makes fossil fuels significantly more expensive than renewable energy. When accounting for pollution-related health crises (approx. $5 trillion+ annual global cost) and climate damage, fossil fuels are far less competitive than, for example, wind and solar power. 

Key ways "environmental heroes" (investors, policymakers, and activists) are making fossil fuels more expensive:
Carbon Pricing/Taxation: -
Implementing taxes or cap-and-trade systems that force companies to pay for their emissions.
Removing Subsidies:-
Eliminating the $500+ billion in annual direct subsidies for fossil fuels, which makes renewable energy more cost-competitive.
Accounting for Health Costs: -
Factoring in the $2.9 trillion annual cost of air pollution, reducing the perceived cheapness of fossil fuels.
Driving Investment to Renewables:-
 Using market demand to lower the cost of green tech, making alternatives like EVs and solar panels cheaper than gasoline or coal. 
Note: Some political satire suggests that extreme economic turmoil in the energy market can also function as a, perhaps unintended, mechanism for raising fossil fuel prices. 
Does this answer your question about how environmental efforts are increasing the cost of fossil fuels?
Renewable energy is cheaper and healthier – so why isn’t it ...
    Health benefits of leaving fossil fuels , Burning coal, oil and natural gas releases tiny particles into the air along with toxic gases; these pollutants can worsen Glove

Solar Generation in Night hrs

How to get get Solar generations in Night        While standard solar panels cannot generate electricity at night,     New technologies are being developed to address this limitation.      These advancements focus on harnessing the earth's heat or using infrared radiation emitted by the Earth to generate power, potentially creating 24-hour renewable energy sources.  Key Concepts and Technologies :- 1) Anti-Solar Panels (Thermo-radiative Cells):- How they work:-    These panels, also known as thermoradiative cells, work in reverse of traditional solar panels. Instead of absorbing sunlight, they emit infrared radiation into space, which is then converted into electricity.    Nighttime energy:-     They can generate electricity from the difference in temperature between the panel and the surrounding environment, essentially converting the heat escaping into space back into usable power.  Potential:-  ...

Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power

  Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power         Statement "1000 pounds" per day of hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power in the world" is not accurate.     While hydrogen can be produced from renewable energy sources like solar and wind power, it's not a replacement for those sources themselves. Hydrogen production via electrolysis, using renewable electricity, is a promising avenue for decarbonization, but it doesn't negate the need for solar and wind power as direct energy sources.  Cause behind its is as under. Hydrogen as an Energy Carrier:-     Hydrogen is an energy carrier, meaning it stores energy produced elsewhere (like from solar or wind) and can be used to power fuel cells or for other applications.  Electrolysis:-     A key method of producing "green" hydrogen involves using electricity from renewable sources (like solar and wind) to split water into hydrogen and oxygen throu...

State-wise carbon emissions in India show a concentration in western and southern states, with byd as major emitters, particularly from the manufacturing and energy sectors. The highest total CO2 emissions have been linked to states like Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal, though the specific ranking can vary depending on the data year and the specific pollutants included.
