An excellent four minute video.

As one poster wrote:

"Whenever energy has become cheaper and more plentiful, even the poorest of humans live like the kings of the previous generation, and difficult problems become easy to solve. Environmentalists want to reverse that progress. They see only the potential future problems with current energy technologies, but refuse to see the potential future solutions that come from greater energy availability. We should be doing…

In this PPH article, the questions and what is left out of the candidates' answers are arguably as important as the answers.

"With the gubernatorial election coming up on Nov. 6, we wanted to know more about the environmental stances of the four candidates."…

A group of New Hampshire legislators and renewable energy advocates issued their response Thursday to the governor’s 10-year energy strategy.

The volunteer coalition wrote plans for how the state can rapidly shrink its carbon footprint—and people’s bills—by investing in energy efficiency, renewable energy and new technologies.

They call it a roadmap to their goal of using renewable power for all of New Hampshire’s electricity by 2040.

State Rep. Lee Oxenham,…

I just listened quickly, so I'm sure I'm not capturing every key point I heard, but with that caveat, here are some highlights:

- The commission is doing its work and contrary…

Wind turbine noise can be bad for hearing  …

My master’s thesis was on the mortality of birds due to powerlines and wind turbines in the special protected area of Alentejo grasslands in Portugal. The region is populated with turbines, and the great Bustards face considerable mortality from them.

Wind turbines have a special liking for raptors and can be blamed without doubt for their rapid decline in regions that host wind factories.

A 2018 specialized study on the impact of wind turbines on raptors concluded that…

D.E. Shaw, which got its start via a $28 million stake from former Maine Today Media owner S. Donald Sussman strikes again.

Orsted, the Danish company that is the world’s largest offshore wind developer, has agreed to pay $510 million to buy Rhode Island-based Deepwater Wind, the company that two years ago built the first offshore wind farm in the United States, a five-turbine array near Block Island.…

The Maine Public Utilities Commission will hold the last of three hearings to let the public comment on Central Maine Power Co.’s proposed hydropower project.

The meeting will be held Wednesday, Oct. 17, at the PUC’s office in Hallowell at 5 p.m.

It follows two other public witness hearings on Sept. 14, one in…

Wind Gives Way to Solar Power and Natural Gas After Federal Subsidies End

The Canada Free Press published an article reiterating all the facts we already know. 

1. Federal subsidies are due to run out in 2020 as long as our screwed up government does not extend them again.

2. From 2000 to 2017 the…

Why is this of interest to Maine?  CMP plans to pull power they are selling to Toronto and Ontario to sell at a jacked up price to Massachusetts. Ontario will need that power if all the renewables die from lack of government subsidies! …

Since the Sierra Club is a propagandist for wind, perhaps this appointment augurs well for the fight against destroying Maine with useless wind.

DOE’s McNamee Nominated As FERC Commissioner

Tariffs on $250 billion of Chinese imports, as well as on metals from Europe and elsewhere, could raise the cost of wind power in the U.S. by as much as 10 percent, Tom Kiernan, chief executive officer of the American Wind Energy Association, said at a conference in New York. Executives from three of the world’s top turbine manufacturers agreed.................................

Ramping up wind power in America would also dial up the nation’s temperatures, a new study out of Harvard found.

While wind energy is widely celebrated as environmentally friendly, the researchers concluded that a dramatic, all-out expansion in the number of turbines could warm the country even more than climate change from burning coal and other fossil fuels, because of the way the spinning blades disturb the layers of warm and cold air in the atmosphere.…

A state office also identifies the 15 members of the commission, which is examining the permitting system and the impact of turbines on tourism.

The 15-member commission includes three members of his administration and several noted critics of wind power, as well as a representative of the tourism industry and the state Public Utilities Commission. One individual has a background in renewable energy but there are no representatives of the wind power industry in…
