  1. The only thing missing from the list is the total amount of how many multi-BILLIONS were stolen from the middle class taxpayer.That should be there,if you really want to wake the sheeple/LIVs up! Well,maybe one or two of them,but it would be a start.
    Oh.And a list of the number of indictments that are starting for fraud,etc.

  2. I expect the list of failed companies in any field, new technology or otherwise, is pretty long. By which I don’t mean to suggest this green nonsense isn’t greater folly than most business ideas, but rather to emphasize how obvious the folly was. There was no reason except ignorance and wishful thinking to expect it was going to be as easy to transform the economy as the ignorant wishful thinkers amongst the greens expected it to be.

  3. But solar energy is our future!
    These lists should be in every place in the public sphere along with how recycling works and what is beneficial and cost-efficient to recycle. Let everyone be aware what “green” policies really cost them.

  4. I DO hope most of the green/leftists invested heavily in these companies.
    But what else could they do,invest in oil,coal, mining, and manufacturing?
    Somewhere there MUST be a green mutual fund.

  5. “Somewhere there MUST be a green mutual fund.”
    You bet there is,don.Look to the Fruit Fly’s “charity”,anythinhg Al Gore is into,anything Soros is into,anything ANY green company is into.It’s not hard. Follow the money.

  6. That list reads like a bonfire of public subsidy and ven cap dollars.
    Another not-ready-for-prime-time-markets technology that was pimped by green lobbyists. This will frighten ven cap money away from new energy technologies for some time. Too bad it’s always the quick buck hustlers who abuse market confidence with start up tech con jobs, I’m sure there are probably quite a few viable technologies which will now be lumped in with the do-not-invest green tech bone pile.

  7. Yeah well, I won’t lump wind and solar in with other failed technologies….like the Wankel motor and the Chrysler turbo….
    Turbines make excellent power plants for generating plants, marine propulsion and even power the M1 Abrams…..although the latter has fuel economy/range issues….

  8. Each and every one of them held back enough money (tax dollars) for a golden parachute for everybody involved.. Lather, rinse, repeat..
    Its nice to track the failed companies.. How about tracking the people to see if the same people keep getting back in line to eat up more of that start up money..
    Where failure is the name of the game..

  9. None of those “losers” are in Ontario, right?
    Just goes to prove the superior intellect of Dildo McDinky and his voters!

  10. “How about tracking the people to see if the same people keep getting back in line to eat up more of that start up money..”
    THAT is the million dollar question!
    I wonder if any enterprising Reporter has done his research,and is about to write a Pulitzer prize winning series of columns.

  11. Wonder how many REAL ng or coal/nuclear power plants could have been built to insure cheap and plentiful energy for industry and people living in the real world. The trillions wasted world wide on this inefficient feel good crap is enough to make one think that the great minds behind this immense failure are not all that bright. Very green and thoroughly brainwashed, but not very bright. Now, if only taxpayers stopped subsidizing bird shredders we could actually look forward to having a future as well as save billions more that we don’t have.

    Gaia really wouldn’t give a damn.

  12. all i know is the regulators, power producers, transmission line owners and municipalities are raking in the fixed fees.
    our actual energy power consumption is nothing compared to the fixed fees.
