The best way to deal with high prices of fossil fuels is to transition away from them. For that having high prices is a good incentive.

So industry which needs high temperature processes or chemical inputs at sufficiently low prices to be competitive, what exactly does it transition to? China?

Yep, moved away from fossil fuels the moment I was responsible for paying the energy bill. Within a month I called the provider to cut the gas connection because I don’t want it. I spent more than strictly necessary but part of that was for partner approval. About £7k total and I could have had it with an interest free loan if I wanted which would be paid for by the energy savings but I had the money so I just paid it outright.
