The industry needs political incentives to even exist and now they want incentives to fix the problem the incentives created. Why don’t we just agree on state financed and owned wind power and be done with it instead of feeding the middlemen.

And it begs the question, the waste was a known factor before even starting building turbines, why start asking for this now instead of twenty years ago. To me it feels very much like a problem once wanted to be swept under the rug now becoming too much to handle.
