excellant .... fro the devloping not only wind but also in solar enrgy.

Not surprising that Sun Edison's founder would bad mouth FITs. SE's model is to capture the majority of each states' sREC market even before the RPS laws are in place. A U.S. FIT would greatly reduce SE's competitive edge--the slaughter "pigs" comment is simply more scare tactics.
Using MD and DC as examples??? Nonsense! If you didn't have a deal done with a utility you will have to market your sRECs to aggregators. RPS's based on using RECs for compliance is simply a way to keep the strong "fat and happy". SE sizes its projects to absorbs RPSs solar carve outs as the % within the RPS grows.
Why doesn't anyone ever mention the installation problems that soooo many of SE's projects have experienced--at $3.90/Watt installed (his quote) do the math...best case scenario of component prices leaves very little money for design and install--corner cutting gets you big problems down the road (especially with the roof warranty issues that have been/will be "uncovered")
SE will be selling off its projects just to keep operations going--they will continue to do REC transactions and capture portfolios, but the music will eventually stop.

Sun Edison is located in Maryland...MD is by far the highest cost installation state--NREL data: where are the cost savings?
