Even environmentalists have begun to grumble about the solar boom, which sucks up half of Germany’s funding for renewables but provides just 20 percent of green power.


This is an interesting point. I wonder if this is simply because of the high capital cost of solar equipment? If it were really as much false economy as this simple statement sounds one would have to wonder why the government would fund it to that level.
