Subsidiary money on clean energy investments stopped

I don't know what our government is thinking but they do not have a very clear policy on clean energy. In the past years they have helped companies to invest in clean energy technologies by providing subsidiary funds (paid by our tax money !). There were two main objects; more jobs and more clean energy (at least I thought so). Now, 18 August of this year suddenly this was cut. The so called MEP ended abrubtly. The Netherlands seem to have chosen another path to the future ? Let's hope our government will chose to invest in clean energy again. Our future generation and the rest of the world will benefit from it.

The information in English on the official website from our Ministry explains what MEP is. It does, howver, not show a translation of the latest news items about the end of this MEP.

Al Gore commented shortly about this in his speech last week. See speech video at New Energy TV
