Uneconomic compared to what?
Not a single number on what current fossil fuel subsidies and climate damage cost, and not a single figure for the cost of alternative methods.
Not to mention much of the cost is due to regulatory burdens. It was economically viable 40 years ago. Not that all regulation is bad. But we made it uneconomical.
