Opinion piece that was noted by forbes as not being a forbes endorsed article. However, from a research organization on clean energy.
While EIA did not calculate the subsidies per unit of energy produced, the Institute for Energy Research calculated the federal subsidies and support per unit of electricity production from the information provided in EIA’s report. On a per dollar basis, government policies have led to solar generation being subsidized by over 345 times more than coal and oil and natural gas electricity production, and wind is being subsidized over 52 times more than the more conventional fossil fuels on a unit of production basis.
