It's a valid point. But electrification always has a huge efficiency advantage at the point of energy use, i.e. electric motors are far more energy-efficient than the best combustion engines. And, of course, it allows for the upstream energy source to be swapped out later. See the kind of thing that India has been building recently.

PS: article that has impressive photo of said solar park.
