Economy and changes in wind energy farms


Letter:
Economy and changes in wind energy farms
BP put its international wind energy companies up for sale on April 3. The uncertain outlook for government subsidies and prices in solar, wind and other clean energy areas, along with re-emergence of strong prices for oil and opportunities to develop large gas fields have distracted its attention.
Now the concern is who will be the high bidder for BP development work in Van Wert and Mercer counties. Iberdrola Energy, a Spanish corporation, or Horizon Wind, a subsidiary of EDP-Energy of Portugal? Another giveaway of the $12 billion (2013 budget funding) subsidy money to nonnational corporations while we cut school and health care funding.[Lima Ohio]
