German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government may try to tame growing
opposition to onshore wind developments by offering cash sweeteners to local councils and consumers.
A plan drawn up by officials in Berlin suggest municipalities could earn as much as 20,000 euros ($21,600) a year for each newly-erected wind turbine in their districts from 2021, according to a copy of the document seen by Bloomberg News.
