<<It's interesting that right wingers oppose any subsidies for renewables, but you are going for a subsidy on your coal plant.>> Wrong again, we got a subsidy to help with the wind test. The problem with wind here is when it's -10 the wind is usually too strong for windmills and they lock down so as not to be torn apart. Then in the summer when it's 95 we don't get any wind. Now if we could generate the power in the spring and fall and store it for summer and winter, wind would be the way to go. I think power generation should be varied throughout the nation, different areas have different resources. If I lived in Arkansas where hydroelectric runs 3 cents per kwh I wouldn't be burning coal or putting up windmills.
