Excerpt from PPH Tux Turkel article today describing Maine PUC Commissioner Bruce Williamson's take on the potential (or lack thereof) of offshore wind in Maine:

“Maine has to compete with states that are just as…

From the article:

"We must reduce carbon production generated by transportation — it is five times more than the carbon produced by electric production. Some predict that in 25 years we’ll all be driving electric cars."

He also goes on to write:

New investigative research has revealed that since 1992, approximately 80% of Scotland’s golden eagles have disappeared from the regions with wind turbine developments. However recently released and rigged golden eagle research is showing the opposite, big increases.  According to this Dec 2016 article, substantial golden eagle population increases have taken place in Scotland. But this article has been based upon fraudulent research. The truth is that this population was in big trouble…

In 2014, DOE ponied up a $150 million loan guarantee for Cape Wind, a wind turbine project to be located in Nantucket Sound. However, local pushback over the potential doubling of consumers’ electricity bills stalled the project.

The solar energy company Solyndra, whose failure became a national scandal, received its $535 million loan from DOE in 2009.

In short, Perry needs to rein in, downsize and refocus DOE. Here’s what he should do.…

If you Google wind power a new site appears! Brought to you by the University of Maine, and touting off shore wind as Maine's most untapped natural resource - clean, responsible, renewable! The site goes on to extol the virtues of U Maine's Aqua Ventus I project - jobs, minimal view shed issues, reduced energy cost, etc. ( I wish they had consulted their neighbors of the project - the citizens of Monhegan Island!)  And the site states that the University had already been selected to receive…

Our Senator Angus King, who started the wind ball rolling while he was Governor, got very rich on his investment as a founder of Independence  Wind, the first installer of wind turbines in Maine at Record Hill which came under…

I was never an opponent of wind power. I am a science teacher of 11 years and teach about sound and alternative energies. It is in the state curriculum. I even went to an all day wind power teacher’s workshop to get a better understanding of wind energy eight years ago. The wind industry has been setting us up for a fall a long time ago.

By the way, standing directly underneath a turbine is the quietest place to listen to them. Stand back 500, 1000, 1500 feet and downwind from them,…
