Absolutely. They cannot anywhere near make a profit standing on their own...no way. Without govt. subsidies, they’d die in minutes.

I had a chat once with an engineer who worked on wind turbines.

He says that those things require much more mechanical maintenance than most people realize. Apparently the torque generated by those huge blades is immense. Maintenance costs money, so when the subsidies run dry the owners quit maintaining them, and eventually they fail. They are then just left to rust. Disposing of rusted windmills that are about to fall down is going to become a major challenge in the future.
