The industry knows that subsidies are going away and that the technology has evolved to the point producers can make money selling power at competitive rates without it.

Only because the electric companies are forced by law to buy wind generated power at market rates. The electric companies are also forced by law to permit access to the grid.

Given the choice electric companies would never buy wind generated electricity. It is erratic and unreliable (just like the wind).

Huge waste of money and resources. Like most “green” ideas.
