Apparently wide distribution planned for Bingham Wind!!!

Sun Edison lost $283 million last year and just sold back a company it bought only in July - So that company can file for bankruptcy on its own!  Will it do the same First Wind Who had $648 million in cumulative losses when Son Edison bought them?   This is all just another Enronesque house of cards - and no surprise!

And as for that $2.75 announcement and PR stunt pulled a couple of weeks ago - Dan McKay you are correct - Promises promises - a real wimpy move!…

Ready for a blood boil?  The corruption and influence of special interests in 2013 (very recent) control the things that get done in Maine.  This is proof that our legislators are looking out for themselves and their pocketbooks, not ours.  They are ruining Maine, the economy, jobs, the environment, energy and businesses for their own enrichment.  This has got to stop, I don't know how, but it has to stop.…

Please see the question from Kathy Sherman below.

This financial free-faller somehow recently found $2.75 million to try and buy off Mainers yet they are almost universally despised in Maine, the state where I believe most of their U.S. current and planned wind business is…

SunEdison, Shares Fizzling, Promises a New Strategy

Alternative-energy firm to stop selling solar and wind farms to its own affiliates, to lay off 1,000

The company, based in Maryland Heights, Mo., will layoff 1,000 employees, or 15% of its workforce, and stop selling solar and wind farms to…

Sen. James Lankford introduced a bill Wednesday, titled the PTC Elimination Act, that would remove the Production Tax Credit from the tax code entirely. 

This would be a big step toward making it impossible for wind companies to erect and operate turbines in the future.  Let's see if it can get passed.  Lankford is from Oklahoma where there is already Wind installed.…

STEVE THURSTON: INDUSTRIAL WIND AND SOLAR IS A DEATH SENTENCE TO VERMONT’S LANDSCAPE

And the plot gets thicker for wind developers in Vermont : the people are raising their voices in opposition to projects , GMP ( Green Mountain Power ) say : we have enough wind for the moment , a law was passed at the  last Legislature session increasing the need for renewables , and the Public Service Board  goes on permitting projects for the sake of the  "Public Good" ( which they never define except with some pictures of the 2006 BP oil spill ) ........this conundrum  is the symbol of a…

Wind Turbine Noise: What you can't hear can harm you.

What do you think of when you think of an industrial wind project? Wind developers want you to think of free, green electricity. People who live near industrial wind turbines think of noise. Let's see why.

An Industrial Wind project in Swanton proposes to install seven 499-foot tall wind turbines along 6,000 feet of Rocky Ridge (elevation 323 feet). We recently learned that the developer of this proposed project plans…

UPC First Wind (bought by SunEdison) business history is a great indicator of their future performance. 

First Wind was formerly UPC founded by Brian Caffyn. 

Brian Caffyn

Mr. Caffyn has a strong personal interest in developing environmentally friendly renewable energy, which has resulted in a dedication…

Kurt Adams, a former head of the Maine Public Utilities Commission, is leaving his job as chief development officer at wind developer SunEdison to become chief executive of Summit Utilities, Summit has announced.

.......Adams who chaired the PUC from 2005 to 2008, was previously chief development officer at First Wind, which was acquired last year by a SunEdison subsidiary. First Wind/SunEdison are the largest wind developers in…

It has been a long way up and quick ride down for SunEdison but bad news keeps piling up for the hedge fund hotel even as it dead-cat-bounces again. As the stock bounces, just as it bounced in September after Steve Cohen's Point72 exposed their stake and JPM jumped to the rescue, uncertainty remains extreme. Amid a surge in debt and increasingly negative…

For the RECORD an example of the scumbags at work.  My comments to this important story are being deleted.  Anyone else care to post information?                                                           …

Very briefly, environmentalists, primarily bird conservation groups have expanded the 1918 migratory bird law which makes it illegal to "pursue, hunt, take, capture [or] kill" any of more than 1,000 covered bird species, but courts have disagreed over whether such actions need to be intentional.

They have argued that oil spills, fracking and numerous other harmful impacts on bird populations must be punished, regardless of the original intent to halt…

Layoffs at SunEdison as Investors Question the Renewable Energy Developer’s Strategy

Why is a company that has to lay off so many of its workers giving so much money away to so called environmental groups in Maine?

It started off as a normal gathering. People mingled at multiple bars. A house band played on a small stage upstairs. Waiters handed out meat on sticks.

Suddenly, all the…

Our thoughts and prayers are with the workers.

What sort of safety problems might be lurking in Sun Edison's (First Wind's) wind turbines throughout Maine?

Vermont is on the move ...to common sense . I listened to Blittersdorf at the Addison county Democrats meeting a month ago,. He does not believe in adverse health effects of noise and gets angry when confronted with the power of MRI imaging to demonstrate brain responses when humans are exposed to very low frequencies (8 Herz). He calls people anti wind zealots when proper questions regarding emissions saving and definition of Public Good are sent to him. He wants 3000 MW of wind for…

The White House has a plan for Maine's future!  You be the judge - Better offshore than destroying our mountain tops and environment?

SunEdison's Plan to Reduce Costs May Not Be Enough, Analyst Says

SunEdison Inc. Chief Executive Officer Ahmad Chatila has some explaining to do, after announcing a plan to fire 15 percent of his workforce. It’s his latest move to reverse anindustry-worst 70 percent plunge in…

Blatant Unrepentant Liars

I recently sold a property 2.2 miles from a wind project at 1/2 its accessed evaluation( and I was lucky to sell it at all)

Anyone who believes First Wind/SunEdison / Terraform Power is "nummah than a hake" or a past patient of a frontal lobotomy. Remember this too , infra sound (low frequency noise emitted by these massive feckless turbines) is heard and annoying up to 2.5 miles by many people. Those within 4000 feet (the golden distance for litigation…
