Living near wind turbines can be hazardous to your health.…

It would be awesome if you could take 3 minutes and fill in the survey for Shell Wind Energy regarding their proposed Bear River Ridge project.  http://www.shell.us/home/content/usa/innovation/wind/projects/bear_river/survey/

I suppose we should all shed a tear for the executive leadership of all the environmental groups who had seen this bilking of the public as a path to padding their personal pockets.

After a couple of attempts, the FERC website downloaded power production figures for October, November, and December of 2011 for Lincoln Lakes (Rollins), which FERC calls "Evergreen Wind Power III, LLC."  I dont know why it didn't work the first time,  I will post this information in a day or so.

The FERC website seems to have been changed. I see no "Download" place, and  I  can't get the big list of producers to come up. Help!?

Jackson Parker on Maine Watch Friday, 1/27/12.

Watch the full video at: http://video.mpbn.net/video/2190503142/ And by the way, note that MPBN made ZERO disclosure of Parker's connection to the wind industry and in the misleading statement of the year simply called him a businessman.

The “Clean Energy” bill will not be on the November ballot in Maine in 2012 because the required number of signatures could not be mustered. I believe this happened because most Mainer’s have come to realize that this would not have been a “clean energy” bill at all. Maybe it should have been called the “Wind Industry Initiative “bill or the “Clean Energy Hoax” bill. However that may be, it is clear that the “clean energy bill” is a complete and misleading misnomer.

Today, David Farmer said, “We can’t predict the future but we do know that investment in efficiency is most cost effective and that’s for homeowners and business,” Farmer said. “That’s an idea that’s not going away.”

That is right on, David. Good you noticed. Since Industrial turbines have no efficiency whatsoever,…

Spain Halts Renewable Subsidies to Curb $31 Billion of Debts

January 27, 2012, 12:50 PM EST

By Ben Sills

Jan. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Spain halted subsidies for renewable energy projects to help curb its budget deficit and rein in power-system borrowings backed by the state that reached 24 billion euros ($31 billion) at the end of 2011.…

After a month of dealing with the Dell from Hell that refused to enable JavaScript, I can at last say what I have been chomping at the bit to say. WIND TURBINES DO NOT SEQUESTER CO2! Not one molecule! Tell a big lie, tell it soon, repeat it often, louder and louder and some people who have too much to do to just survive will tend to accept the lie. Carbon credits are pure corruption. Using the fossil fuels to mine the special materials, refine them, manufacture them into a turbine, transport…

Wind power is just a scam that lines the pockets of Baldacci cronies like his former Chief of Staff Kurt Adams who took over $ 1million in stock options from his then future employer First Wind while Chairman of the PUC. While there, Adams helped grease the skids for the $1.5 billion CMP transmission upgrade. It was needed solely for Baldacci's wind friends who without…

I have learned a bit more about the FERC website. 

If you go to: http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing-/eqr/data/spreadsheet.asp  you get a webpage that has quarterly/monthly (?) data on power sales by all of the large power plants in the USA, for the past ten years or so.  All large power producers are required to report this information to FERC, and it is public. 

    After selecting a producer (see below),…
