S Illinois | Not sure why such the focus on decommissioning in the article as the farm still has value and is producing. They were a wind company who couldn’t fulfill their contract and had to buy on the open market to fulfill that contract. No different than a farmer who over sells and has to buy out of a grain contract. So sell $4 corn, have a drought and have to buy $7 corn. Their problem was their market did the equivalent of corn going from $4 to $400. No farmer would be able to handle that. But that’s more of a risk management issue rather than some sign of an industry issue.
Edit: Perhaps someone can refresh us on HRSW a few years ago. That process took a real jump to $20+ and IIRC there were issues with regards to the financial positions of some of the players involved.
