But not directly to the energy company CEO’s salary or the politicians who rather take the bribes from oil and gas up front.

Breaking news. The voice of the wind energy industry thinks public funding their projects are a good idea.

is the study peer reviewed?

Why does it need public funding in the first place then? If private investors agreed with this claim and it was actually a x7 return on investment then why aren’t there more private investors in wind?

I am pro renewables, but this can’t be true. If the return is that good, there would be no need for public funding.

Germany has spent 250-300 b€ on wind power subsidies since 2000, which would imply that their economy should have gained almost 2000b € from this alone.
Inflation adjusted growth in the German economy **in total** since the year 2000 is 600b €.
If you remove the inflation adjustment and just take nominal GDP growth the numbers even become more bogus. The German economy has grown 2.34 trillion € since 2000, so you’re telling me that almost the entirety of Germany’s nominal GDP growth since 2000 is due to wind power subsidies?
I’m gonna put this in the pants on fire category.

Nice try Lobbyist.
Few years ago i heard that 1 zloty od dotations spent on commercials in media adds 14 zloty to economy.
Which is funny when i think about it. We could base our entire economy on it and be richest nation in perpetum mobile. We would make commercials in radio and do nothing else in Poland and would be rich.

If wind is such a great investment, why aren’t private actors lining up to build it without public funding? Surely they would like a 7x RoI.

So, how much does private funding deliver?
