Subsidies lock users and producers into technologies that cannot be economically viable. In the medium and long term the best thing that can be done for the nation is to drop all wind and solar subsidies and mandatory buying percentages imposed on utilities.
@PeteS in CA True,but the "connected people" are making too much money out of it to allow that to happen. In the last year some solar power company actually bought up a golf course to turn it into a wind farm,and you can bet your bippy that purchase and the construction were subsidized.
Best of all,from their viewpoint,even when/if the solar farm is shut down due to being unproductive,they will still own all that prime property and can sell it,or even turn it back into a golf course again.
