Centre County Solar Farm Project Implodes Without Taxpayer Subsidies

Big Solar, as in big solar farms (which are ugly and eat up farmland), can't exist in a fair and open energy market. It's too expensive. Big Solar fails unless there are massive taxpayer subsidies---you supporting it with your tax dollars. Nowhere is that more evident than what just happened in Centre County, Pennsylvania. The Centre County government agencies that had worked together for years on plans to buy solar energy are ending the initiative after the company they were working with sought to end the current contract amid a "changing financial landscape." Taxpayer subsidies disappeared, and so, too, has this project.
