"I have analyzed every existing argument that attempts to link support for renewables to green jobs. In every case I have found the arguments sadly lacking, both in logic and in any measured effects." -- Dr. Robert Michaels
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- IER Senior Fellow Robert Michaels will testify on Tuesday, April 16 at 2:00 p.m. before a joint hearing of the House Science Subcommittees on Energy and Oversight. The hearing will focus on “Assessing the Efficiency and Effectiveness of Wind Energy Incentives.” Michaels, a frequent witness before state and federal panels, will evaluate the Government Accountability Office’s (GAO) recent report exposing duplicative and wasteful federal wind initiatives and assess the many problems that wind subsidies pose to energy markets.
