The German energy crisis is pushing the government to consider ending green energy subsidies because they do little to fight global warming and only serve to make electricity more expensive.

A recent government report is urging the complete abolition of the country’s Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG), which imposes hefty taxes on families and businesses to subsidize green energy production.

The annual report from the Expert Commission on Research and Innovation (ECRI) concluded that Germany’s green energy law is not a cost-effective way to fight global warming and does nothing to stimulate technological innovation.

............................

This is why German energy producers like E-On and JUWI are coming to the US to harvest the American Subsidies.
