I like Denmark, but I don't think Americans have ever used Denmark as a model
for anything as important as a national energy policy. U.S. wind electricity
is approx. 5 cents per kWh. When PV costs US$0.05/kWh, I will vote to end PV
subsidies. Until then, I will keep voting for PV subsidies until they are par
with polluting, non-renewable energy subsidies, credits, etc.
