Our electric company charges 25% more for renewables.
Ah, the old "I'm sucking your money tit as long as I can while my industry dies and I refuse to innovate with my profits" tax.
There research and infrastructure costs. It's not like it's free.
Thats the "refuse to innovate with my profits" part I said
And? It still is going to cost money.
Companies have obtained tons of public money for research, then charge extra for the research investment. Its a joke.
Correction, it has already cost us money, except the people receiving it were not responsible with the money.
