慕尼黑——法国总统伊曼纽尔·马克龙认为德国经济模式改革早就应当进行了。单就能源领域而言，他或许是对的。
尽管法国70%的电力来源于核电站，并且正在尝试使用以核能为能源的电动汽车（EV），但德国却仍然依赖风电场和其他形式的绿色能源，并计划到2022年逐步淘汰核能，并到2038年淘汰煤炭。但以风能推动德国工业的尝试正面临越来越强的政治阻力，因为这个国家已经四处遍布着太多的风力涡轮装置——有些甚至近250米（820英尺）高——以至于就连德国最美的风景也开始向工业景观靠拢。
当然，农场主和森林所有者对将其土地转化为工业用地的机遇持欢迎态度。通常情况下，只有位于大城市郊区的土地所有者才有资格享受这样的意外财富，但随着立法促进在农村地区建设风力涡轮设备，德国农民和森林所有者也已经挖出了金矿。
We hope you're enjoying Project Syndicate.
