From The ISO-NE Newswire January 8, 2018 :

"Over the past decade, the New England states have sought to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and meet climate goals through various mechanisms outside of the ISOadministered competitive wholesale markets. These mechanisms include mandates that state-regulated utilities enter into long-term contracts with renewable resource developers.4 These out-of-market actions could have adverse consequences for FCM. Specifically, resources that…

07.01.2009 | BOSTON -- Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick signs an ethics bill at the Statehouse, in Boston as then-Attorney General Martha Coakley, and then-state Sen. Brian Joyce, D-Milton look on. The bill was designed to prevent a repeat of scandals involving lawmakers by banning lobbyists from giving gifts to state lawmakers, banning lawmakers from…

The bids are broken up into two sections, 83D and 83C, the latter covering offshore wind. In many cases, the information on the bids themselves is so heavily redacted, that in terms of supplying information to the public, it is a worthless charade. In other words, in some cases, gargantuan projects which a company has been working on for perhaps five years, are still cloaked in deep secrecy. This is so by the time a project is actually announced and an application in Maine is filed, the…

David Emerson is a professional scientist at the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences who studies bacteria that live literally between a rock and a hard place. 

But I am a little perplexed by his "scientific" credentials.

Here is what I commented:

Hey Mr. Emerson;

You are a scientist? You study oceans? Have you happened to be on any of the recent voyages in the last decade to study the North and…

A while back, our local paper The Record Searchlight, was bought out by USA Today. A few days before this Dec 28 story hit, the author called me and we talked about this newly planned wind energy project. The call lasted for about 20 minutes. I also sent him 3 emails with attachments and proof at specific links, of this industry's research rigging. There were no follow-up questions from Arthur Damon, emails or that this story would even be posted. I found out about the story…

Seriously Senator? Seriously Governor?

Your letters lauding UMPI's wind turbine would seem to indicate you simply don't know what you are talking about and should not be allowed to influence energy decisions. Got any new statements on the university's wind turbine debacle as it is soon to begin its 10th year of operation?…

RRB Energy Ltd.PS-600 wind turbine has been upgraded to a Vestas 47??? If so, what was the cost? What was the funding source? How much has been spent to date on this turbine since it was conceived? Does "upgraded to a Vestas 47" mean the nacelle has been replaced? If the turbine (presumably at least the nacelle???) has been replaced, what happened to the old one? How much did UMPI get for this? Has ANY news about The UM's possible purchase of a new wind turbine or component been reported in…
