The company is wasting enough energy to fill a contract with Massachusetts.

With this line, the company would be able to sell as much carbon-free power into New England as could be produced by two nuclear power plants.

If Paris streets burned over a proposed 25 cents per gallon climate change tax, imagine the global conflagration over a $49 per gallon tax.

That’s what a United Nations special climate report calls for in 12 years, with a carbon tax of $5,500 per ton—equal to $49 per gallon of gasoline…

Hydro-Quebec says it's bringing 13 more hydroelectric plants online and has untapped potential for others, but opponents of the 145-mile transmission line through Maine say that's no guarantee more clean energy will be generated.....................“We have excess (hydropower) energy in Quebec that we can’t get out,” Serge Abergel, director of public affairs for Hydro-Quebec, told the editorial board of the Portland Press Herald. “We’re ‘spilling’ water. We’re unable to get it to our export…

Maine Power Express proposes bringing electricity to Massachusetts from new wind farms in Aroostook County via underground transmission lines from the southern Aroostook area to Searsport and then through underwater transmission cables from Searsport to Boston. The transmission lines would total approximately 300 miles and would cost $1 billion or more.....................

   To all those people, like the Natural Resources Council of Maine and the Democratic Wing of the Maine Legislature, who want all of New England's electricity to be derived from renewables, aka, wind and solar replacing fossil fuels, how could you not confront the ISO-NE people who have decided to retain natural gas resources seeking retirement, specifically, Mystic Units 8 and 9, natural gas plants fueled by LNG . A special cost-of- service agreement will be implemented to keep these…

The guest, political activist Nokimi Konst, doesn't like Tucker Carlson's question as to why climate change sermonizers scold the common man's carbon footprint yet themselves live in giant mansions, drive huge vehicles and spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a month on their own private jet travel.

After Tucker pushes on this, asking…

Weaver Wind, Hancock County

Application for Site Location of Development and Natural Resource Protection Act Permit for Grid-Scale Wind Energy Development

Weaver Wind, LLC proposes a 22-turbine, 72.6 MW wind energy facility in the Towns of Eastbrook and Osborn. The applications were accepted as complete on November 13,…

People in the hydroelectric power industry have long known that this clean, reliable, renewable generating technology has an important role to play in meeting vital goals related to the environment and climate change.

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change agrees, as evidenced by an article published on its website last week.

Below are excerpts from the text of this…

The Vermont Comprehensive Energy Plan, CEP, projects to install about 35,000 cold-climate heat pumps, ccHPs, by 2025 to begin the transformation of about 63% of building heating to renewable electricity by 2050. About 34% would be by biomass (wood burning) and bio liquids, and only about 3% would be by fossil fuels. See page 8 of URL…

Longroads statement on Weaver Wind Bid to RI RFP

"Eligibility for the Federal tax credits is assumed in the pricing and viability of the Project. It is likely the Project will elect the Investment Tax Credit (“ITC”). The Project has qualified for the 30% ITC available for wind by starting offsite construction by the end of 2016. "

Rhode Island RFP of Clean Energy 2018

Longroads is questioned about disputes :

The Maine Public Utilities Commission ruled this week that Central Maine Power cannot arbitrarily limit the amount of electricity smaller commercial power plants can put on its transmission system.

The finding came at the request of Dirigo Solar, an electricity generation company that has a contract to provide enough solar power for 10,000 homes in Maine from scattered locations.

Nicholas Mazuroski, a partner in Dirigo Solar, says CMP limited the amount of electricity it would…

Radically altering people's behavior is a social experiment, not an economic policy. The French people are balking because the government doesn't appear to care how much disruption there will be in the lives of ordinary people. Whether French voters believe in man-made climate change is not the issue. This is an issue that hits at the wallets of the French lower and middle classes and, along with the rising cost of living, is squeezing the average Frenchman, lowering their standard of…

To any self-respecting Republicans left to represent us in Augusta, would you consider a bill to repeal the Wind Energy Act,

The protests began last month surrounding the tax on fuel and hikes on electricity and natural gas prices, which were also put on hold, but expanded to cover other concerns. The discord has sparked complaints that French President Emmanuel Macron, who was elected last year on a platform of government reform, and his administration are out of…

The state has begun reviewing an application to develop a wind farm in northern Hancock County and is weighing whether to schedule a public hearing on the proposal, which three years ago generated concerns about its potential to kill birds and bats.

The Maine Department of Environmental Protection determined in mid-November that the application from Longroad Energy to develop a 22-turbine wind farm in Eastbrook and Osborn is complete, Mark Bergeron, director of the DEP’s bureau of…

But the main reason he deserves to lose this one — and lose horribly — is that the protests in France are an entirely self-inflicted disaster, the product of Macron’s suicidal decision to embrace the globalist cause of green lunacy just as it has begun to fall out…
