Pitching A FiT Over Renewable Incentives

The solar energy website Cooler Planet, eviscerated feed-in tariffs on its blog this week. In a brilliant piece of descriptive positioning, the folks at CP refef to FiT's as "German Style Tariffs." That alone should be enough to scare anyone off...

Substantively though, the post explains what FiT's are, and why they are bad...

Given that the PUC is actively considering them as part of the RPS, the post is worth a read.
