Sharing a Privately Owned Powerline With Solar Panel Owners Should Cost Those Who Have To Pay For Such Service

  • Net Energy Billing, where else can one use expensive and privately-owned physical structures and get PAID to do it 
  • Solar panels overproducing energy will send the unneeded electrons into distribution lines and where normally accessing such investor owned offerings mean a payment per kilowatt hour of use is due on a monthly basis, but solar panel owners are actually paid by the…

Connecticut Cutting Out Public Benefits Charge From Electric Bills. What is Maine Doing? Nothing

"Electricity rates in Connecticut will decline by nearly 15% in May, after state regulators on Wednesday approved changes that will all but remove the public benefits charge from customer bills.

The Maine PUC and Efficiency Maine Trust Decision Wording That Should Outrage Electric Customers

This is a April 2026 determination made by the PUC commissioners, Bartlett, Sully and Gilbert that seems to say that EMT is saving the ratepayers $46,311,087 in 2027 and $60,594,815 in 2028. This is garbage! This money is funds that the Biden Administration granted and have dried up under the Trump Administration. 

These Commissioners, along with EMT are willfully…

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/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?

We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
