Wind farms get a direct federal subsidy of so much per kilowatt. That is being phased out so soon those bird killing turbines will have to stand on their own one legs ha ha


And compete with the heavily subsidized fossil fuel industry?

Currently, renewables in the USA account for mere 12% of total energy production.


According to this source, renewables were at 17.1% in 2018.

That's a big jump, from 11% in 2017. I read that 2018 was a record year for renewables in the US.

That's why I included the link. "Renewables" may be defined differently.
