The problem is that green energy subsidies are paid usually per kWh regardless of the need. They are often way more than the energy price. So even if your energy price is negative 2cents/kWh, and your subsidy is 10c/kWh then it makes sense to still run despite it causing near carnage on the grid. And all these contracts are very long terms (20-25 years), so no easy way to change terms.
