Looks like the geniuses that run our energy system in NE and Maine are preparing for rolling blackouts this winter. Is that what you get for a 50% increase in your utility costs? Clown world.

Governor Mills has her staff working on a solution, yet "Government isn't the solution to our problems, Government is the problem"

We will have to fend for ourselves and our neighbors

1 In 4 Americans Expected to Experience Power Blackouts This Winter
The Northeastern United States is having to ration heating oil, a fossil fuel byproduct integral in heating homes during winter months. Heating oil inventories are down 20% below the five-year average.

New England Democrats are now asking the Biden administration for an emergency release from the Northeast Home Heating Oil Reserve (NEHHOR), a reserve of heating oil similar to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

On top of this, the New England states also face a natural gas shortfall due to inadequate pipeline infrastructure.

James Danly, commissioner on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, warned:

“There is a very real possibility that New England could be facing a dire set of consequences this winter.”

To many, this was an issue expected to only be seen in Europe. European countries, like Germany, have been radically reducing their carbon footprint by phasing out fossil fuels from their energy mix.

Subsequently, their energy grid is weaker when they increasingly rely on wind and solar power, far inferior forms of energy. Europe is now bracing for a cold winter, but at least they’re “green”.

It appears we are set to face similar issues across the U.S., a far cry from the American energy dominance had just a few years ago.

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.
