"Agree density is important but also need to factor in economics with density. I am not a huge wind fan but it is not metered or needs to be drilled for. The cost for completing a 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 gal water frack for a well is big…"

"6%. Nil reserve. Upped demand. The storm hit 12 States. All other states have some wind in their generation inventory, but everyone is mainly talking about TX. Why? Because the TX grid is poor, nearly all systems…"
"If < 50% of 15.7% percent collapses a grid (0.4*15.7% = 6.2%), then it's the system whether you like or dislike wind. TX does not (i) winterize anything, (ii) power share, or (iii) maintain adequate reserve. The coal plants…"
"Wind only accounts for 15.7% of power generation in TX. So nearly half = less than 8%. Texas has stayed off the interstate power sharing grid which is just dumb. Their grid has also failed numerous times. One reason…"
"One drill site clear cuts 10-20 acres, scrapes off the top soil, and replaces surface with construction stone. Then, truck in thumpers, rigs, 5,000,000 to 20,000,000 gallons of water (calculate the trips for millions), chemical additives to…"

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(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 https://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?" https://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.” https://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.
