Funny how wind-subsidy haters never seem to mention that the fossil fuel industry is the largest worldwide reciever of subsidies.
From the FT "Global fossil fuel subsidies and costs hit record $7tn in 2022" https://www.ft.com/content/fa607c72-7810-4ed5-98a3-d27d004c15bd

"We’re doing that so we know that they’re paying attention to it. We don’t want to learn that this thing that’s really important is maintained by a guy living in a basement on public assistance. That is not acting in the best interests of our customers."
Indeed. So what is their approach to this situation? Do they help the original person... or do they just go ahead and copy it? I hope the former, I suspect it is the latter.
More of this, please:
The final part of the motion was designed to hold ANRO's senior management to account for the debacle. "Not the junior tasked with manually copying and pasting from sheet to sheet: we don't need more copy and pasters. We need senior management that know what they're doing, who realize that this is not, and never was, the way to run an HR system," he said.

EU: "Nuclear energy averages 0.4 euro ¢/kWh, much the same as hydro; coal is over 4.0 ¢/kWh (4.1-7.3), gas ranges 1.3-2.3 ¢/kWh and only wind shows up better than nuclear, at 0.1-0.2 ¢/kWh average. NB these are the external costs only. If these costs were in fact included, the EU price of electricity from coal would double and that from gas would increase 30%. These are without attempting to include the external costs of global warming."
