Funny how Efficiency Maine pushes extreme rebates for heat pumps when heat pump costs are about to exceed oil heating prices
Whoa! the latest from the Governors Energy Office shows the cost of oil heat is nearly the same as air source heat pumps. Heat pump efficiency drops with dropping temperatures, oil burners, do not…

The impact of the RGGI "Carbon Tax" is upending the electric market
"The estimated RGGI costs for generators of all fuel types increased slightly over the period. RGGI allowance prices increased by 0.7% in 2023 (from $13.48/short ton in 2022 to $13.57/short ton in 2023). For a typical natural gas-fired generator the average estimated CO2 cost was $6.19/MWh in 2023, a modest increase of just $0.04/MWh from 2022." (quote from ISO-NE 2023 annual market report).…

Second Trump Administration Will Benefit Environment
November 14, 2024
By Diana Furchtgott-Roth
At the 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29) in Azerbaijan, attendees are full of dire predictions that the world’s climate will worsen under President-elect Trump. But when Trump fulfills his campaign promises to increase U.S. oil and gas production and removes President Biden’s pause on new liquid natural gas exports, global emissions will likely decline rather than rise.
This is because exports of U.S.…

Tux Turkel: Maine’s electric vehicle goals won’t take us where we want to go (The Maine Monitor)
Stepping back, while this article is about how many electric vehicles government can force upon Mainers, there are countervailing forces that would challenge the fact that Maine even has a climate action plan and a Maine climate council in the first place. Clearly a "climate industrial complex" has long had a tailwind. But that may be changing as many of the underlying assumptions are being challenged. Whether the new administration will change the tailwind to…

Trump says Interior pick Burgum will chair new National Energy Council
As far as I know, the ink isn't yet dry on this new organization. I guess time will tell how the National Energy Council (NEC) would relate to the Department of Energy (DOE). Is the intent to speed up all energy, not just oil and gas? How might this affect nuclear, an energy source which may be reviving due to AI electricity needs? Will this remove barriers for transmission and if so, what does that mean for wind? Burgum has apparently pushed for an "all of the above" energy strategy in…

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/

We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
