Енергія вітру була джерелом близько 9,2% загального виробництва електроенергії в США та близько 46% виробництва електроенергії з відновлюваних джерел у 2021 році. Вітрові турбіни перетворюють енергію вітру в електроенергію. План інфраструктури президента Байдена на 2021 рік вартістю 2,3 трильйона доларів передбачав 10-річне продовження податкових кредитів на вітрову та сонячну енергію. Вітряні електростанції, які відповідають вимогам, отримають податкові пільги залежно від виробленої продукції протягом 10 років. Кредити, якими можна поділитися з інвестиційними партнерами, зменшують федераль…

No, but there should also be an end to tax incentives and subsidies across the energy sector, including oil and gas, coal, nuclear, and hydro. Research and development grants should be available and encouraged, but stop subsidies to existing technology.

Provide tax credits and subsidies for several alternative energy sources, not just wind power.

Yes, Wind energy, as all renewable / non-traditional energy sources should be subsidized to encourage research and development. Traditional fossil fuel sources are finite and additional energy sources will need to come on-stream to continue economic and (anticipated) population growth.

Wind and Nuclear power I believe are the most efficient forms of energy. Coal and oil power are inefficient and will die as industries within a short while, but efforts should be taken to prepare for that eventuality, like investing in other forms of energy like wind and nuclear power.

If it is made ot be more efficient, such as micro wind farms that can be placed on the tops of buildings, coupled with solar panels, and be less hazardous to wildlife, then yes. However wind power in its current form is ineffective as a replacement for oil, gas, and coal. New technologies need to be explored and supported.

The ability to create power should be available to the consumer, who could use the tax credit as capital investment on the project. Alternative energy should not be under the heavy hand of industry. Enough is enough!

Yes, but change the incentive structure to force competition among alt energy providers to increase the cost efficiency of their technology
