You know why? Government subsidies.
Just about everyone of the wind companies are from the Netherlands..they are all overseas companies...and yes you're right..they are receiving ridiculous subsides.
It just doesnt make sense.....the numbers dont add up
It's the service companies that are making bank

My Danish family is bigly into onshore windmills. One large windmill will generate 2M euros per year. Maintenance per year averages 1.5M euros per year. After all other expenses, the profit margins are pretty thin.
Each new generation is a bit more reliable, but the progress is slow. Until reliability improves, the service companies will continue to make the most money. My family just wants to be in position when maintenance drops to a reasonable level.
