Factcheck: ‘Windmolens kosten meer energie dan ze opleveren en helpen het klimaat niet’
Om de opwarming van de aarde tegen te gaan, wordt er in Nederland flink geïnvesteerd in het opwekken van duurzame stroom. Maar is energie uit windmolens wel zoveel beter voor het klimaat?

But the analysis also suggests that the 25% of recent solar and wind growth that contributed to incremental state RPS often did increase prices in addition to NEM solar.

4/ As a longtime champion of climate policy and former banker, Carney should know better than to double down on fossil fuels: it’s a risky investment.

Fossil fuels are losing market share. A recent report finds that renewables are filling 100% of the growth in electricity demand.

Solar and wind outpaced demand growth in the first half of 2025, as renewables overtook coal’s share in the global electricity mix.

More and more renewable energy producers switch to government subsidies instead of self-marketing

The market cuts through the political posturing, Republican rhetoric and Trump tirades in the U.S. Clean tech companies are just better investments than fossil fuels today. Why? Could it be - going out on a limb here (not) - because they are the FUTURE?

Subsidy-through-deregulation is no longer as effective as it might have been for the fossil fuel industry. And I think that helps explain a lot of the Trump administration's energy/environmental policy agenda.
