A coalition of citizens advocating responsible, science based, economically and environmentally sound approaches to Maine’s energy policy.
I'm new - what should I do? -- Take a deep breath. There is lots of help available. A good place to start is the "Websites" tab on this page. It will take you to a listing of a number of local Maine wind groups. A good strategy is to review these sites and contact a group in your area of the state. There is often a good chance that members of that group will be in a good position to give you advice that is most relevant to the area in which you live. And by all means, please sign up as a member here. It's 100% free and you will be able to start communicating with CTFWP members right here - right away.

NRCM's CO2 - From A Different Point of View (PDF) The PDF document at the following link attempts to put NRCM's own published CO2 information into proper perspective. We think it does just that. Isn't it time to change course and stop so many Mainers' anguish?

I live in Tipton County Indiana and wind comany juwi & e-on are trying to put 500 industrial wind turbines in our county. I have been reading your information and it has been of great value to me.Thanks Continue

The UMPI turbine kept working for just about the whole month of February, which included two blizzards and 12 days with essentially no wind at all. The total power generated was 66,117 kWh, a Capacity Factor of .163. If this turbine ever worked…Continue

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT (excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 http://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" http://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” http://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?
We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”
