Interesting.... oh how easy to manipulate a market. The subsidies have been permanent since 1974 - quite a while and the product tax credit drives that wholesale market price down, now for solar as well as well as wind. The more they produce - use it or not the more they get.
Manipulation of a market for a product that, is in my opinion pretty much worthless, is criminal. But hey - they are making millions off it and it will end up going nowhere when the money turns to something else, but I'm sure they will be there too. Unfortunately not so many can make millions off nuclear, smaller playing field, with a certain level of skill needed.
For those who have had electricity and now have to live with less or without - this is a matter of life and death. Play with the figures all you like, you can make them play any tune you want, but that's the bottom line.
Thanks for sharing - you are digging up good information!
