It's instructive that 14,000 wind turbines have been abandoned in the U.S. -- when their subsidies ran out.

That is the most telling single fact about the government's "green energy" policies. It incentivizes scams -- not improved technologies.

I know.

Between you and I, that is a non-debatable point. We should not be subsidizing technological advances.

If GE, or whomever, honestly believes that wind power, or whatever, is eventually viable, the R + D should be on their dime or it isn’t viable.
