"But the energy corridor's fate still hinges on a Maine Supreme Court ruling on the validity of a 2021 referendum that was designed to kill the $1 billion construction project."
Will the court allow just 18% of eligible voters determine the fate of this price reducing project?
Or will they remand it back to the legislators to do the right…

Why am I not surprised that this article doesn't touch upon any of the negatives associated with batteries on the grid. Maybe start with what all these new batteries, including all of those in EV's, will do in terms of damaging the environment. Maybe tell me how much it costs and compare that to all the alternatives. Puff pieces are an important part of brainwashing. Me? I do NOT accept the inevitability of an all electric future and am very sick and tired of how one sided are the…

I recently received solicitation from Smart Energy Inc. for a six month trial using so-called renewable energy for my electricity supply. In exchange for my gullibility, ignorance and naivete, I would receive a $200 dollar visa gift card. Still being able to do sixth grade math from the great education I received at B.

In one oil-producing nation, gas sells for the equivalent of $2.35 per gallon. In another, gas sells for almost twice that — $4.532 per gallon.
The first is Saudi Arabia. The second is the United States.

As we saw last week, when we’re thinking about and discussing the environmental impact of energy, we can’t assume the impact is only negative. We have to look at whether it plays a role in improving our environment. And it does.
Many of the positive impacts we have on our environment that enable human beings to flourish depend on using a lot of energy.
How energy improves our environment
For example, take the issue…

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/
