Maybe because the local politicians are your cronies and enable grant-grabbing from the EU? For 3M€ you can put solar panels on at least at least 100 houses and not just have energy for 3 as the article states. Plus they wont degrade or be covered with plenty of dirt or snow in winter.
As always, just follow the money and you can find out what's going on.
- zmk_ 12y agoYou clearly have never been to the Netherlands. If there happens to be snow (which it rarely does now), bike lanes get cleared first.
- sucramb 12y agoI grew up in Germany not far from the dutch border and am an avid cyclist. My point is that at the time being you can produce far more efficiently solar energy with putting solar cells on roof tops and you are being ripped off tax payers money. Once you run out of roof tops there is not much of development needed to add a 1cm glass plate on top of a solar cell. It is not like developing a fusion reactor. You are legally stolen 2.7M€ because you can supply three house for just 30.000€.

- sucramb 12y agoMy goodness, I really like the Netherlands and even consider relocating to Amsterdam. It is not against the Netherlands it is against stupid politicians. Last not least I would support you with regard to you link about EU spending / receiving.
