Net Energy Billing, a sawmill business describes it as Net Enterprise Killing

A sawmill, utilizing Maine's natural resource is not pleased with NEB. 

 CommentText "The sawmill industry is actually the perfect case study for how these policies are affecting investment. It is a mature industry, that competes on a global scale, and has traditionally been power and labor intensive. The movement from the Pacific Northwest, BC and basically every where else to the South highlights that money goes where it is wanted. Companies can outsource…

How Ironic, Wind and Solar Developers Protest Paying for Net Energy Billing

The Maine PUC case no. 2022-00160 changes how CMP and Versant will bill electric customers for Net Energy Billing costs the utilities incur. For the first time, customers who acquire power directly from transmission and sub transmission rate classes (having connecting line(s) directly to substations versus power from the distribution lines), will be expected to pay their fair share of NEB. 
      Note: Residential and commercial rate…

A Christmas Wish List from Maine Electricity Customers to the Ruling Elites

Bills that must be presented for hearings during this legislative session:


1.End Maine's participation in RGGI. The supply portion, whether by the Standard Offer or by any of the Competitive Providers, is setting new record high prices that are crushing ratepayers and RGGI is a main driver to these costs. The C02 reduction levels have bottomed out and the reliability of the grid is at severe risk as continued pressure from…

Buy Nice Big 4x4 GMC Trucks Maine, and USE Big Plastic Bags and Containers Too!

Perhaps Mainers  might  some day  be able to  buy things conveniently when shopping, like the rest of the country!

Maine is always thought of  as a quaint backward state, always behind the eight ball of modernity and lacking in scientific common sense. Just look at its left wing dufus of a…

Longtime congressman using ties to Trump administration to push for commission on WTC 9/11 destruction

It could be the most concrete move towards a new 9/11 investigation in the history of the 9/11 Truth Movement.

Former Pennsylvania Congressman Curt Weldon, who previously had a career in firefighting, is coordinating with AE911Truth and other researchers in the 9/11 Truth Movement to present the incoming Trump administration with a proposal for a presidential commission to re-examine the 9/11 evidence. The connection between Weldon and 9/11 researchers was facilitated by firefighting…

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.

Hannah Pingree on the Maine expedited wind law

Hannah Pingree - Director of Maine's Office of Innovation and the Future

"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.
