Renewable energy remains a polarizing issue. Political and customer pressure has power companies moving renewables to the “front burner.”
Wind plays a big part in this mix as efficiency has increased and federal tax incentives help defer the cost of building infrastructure.
Farmers now grow wind turbines and wheat in the same field. However, the harvest has ranged from “good times” to “buyer’s remorse.”
It should be noted that Mid-American Energy helps fund Iowa Public Television, where Market to Market is produced.
