Let's try again:

Anyway, I found you a link in English:

http://dialogue.usaee.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=85:renewable-subsidies-do-they-create-or-destroy-jobs&catid=35:v17-no3&Itemid=78

'Professor Alvarez claims that Spain has spent over $36 billion (€25bn) so far to subsidize renewables'. That's from a guy who's actually critical of renewable energy and argues it destroys jobs. I can't tell whether that's true or not I have to admit.

Yeah.  Keep getting errors trying to translate it.

Also there is this

200 million a year in subsidies.

until 2008 at 1 billion.

With no actual mention of how much this solar power costs outside of JUST subsidies.

 

For example how much the average consumer pays vs oil/coal/even wind.  Or how much they pay over those if you removed the price jacking on other energy to make solar attractive.
