Except Eu referendum lamabasts Evans-Pritchard for ignoring the "massive subsidies" inherent in the Spanish tariffs. Except that they aren't massiv subsidies. The guaranteed prices (€60-70 per Mwh) are about the same as average European prices.

The benefits to the generator is that his income is fixed for 20 years which helps him to raise finance.
There are plenty of renewables projects that *do* get massive subsidies (German solar electricity generation for example), but this isn't really one of them.
Nothing like a good rant, but EU Referendum should get his facts right first.
