VR stuff we have today is crap... It's pretty weird to have a phone strapped 1-inch away from your face. If someway we can get something approximating a holodeck we can talk, until then it has some limited applications, but in its current form it's yesterday's 3d TV.
The thing is renewals may be more expensive up front but that because they represent the true cost of producing the energy, not because they are a bad idea!
The alternatives are just kicking-the-can-down-the-road... How much will it cost to retrofit or decommission that nuclear plant in 15 or 20 years? How much will it cost to get the carbon out of the atmosphere after it messes up our weather to the point where the growing season is unstable and it's hard to grow crops reliably?
There's an old saying... You can pay now or you can pay later, but it usually costs more later.
