Wind farm developers in Michigan don’t want to pay the penaties that traditional energy producers pay for down time. Instead they want the traditional energy producers to pay into a fund to pay fines for when their wind mills aren’t turning.

Its intentional destruction of the working part of our energy sector.

Down time penalties due to mechanical failures (down time) are one thing, but wind is inherently not an on-demand power source so how could a wind farm be penalized in that regard?
