New England Secretly Subsidizes Nuclear, Coal, Oil , Hydro and Biomass

  • How does a reliable electrical generation plant get a boost in value and consequently pass this value in increased prices to the ratepayer?
  •  
    Putting all of the ghastly natural gas prices aside as they are a reflection of the worldwide solar and wind insurgency.
    But, in New England:

  • In Connecticut, it is having the ratepayers paying a premium to their Millstone Nuclear Plant to keep it from closing down.
  • In Massachusetts, it is paying a premium price to the Mystic gas-fired generation plant, which operates on Liquid Natural Gas, a commodity needed due to lack of pipeline capacity.
  • In Vermont, it has contracts with Canadian Hydro and a portion of Seabrook's Nuclear Station.

  • In Maine, it is classifying Biomass as renewable and contracting it to supply the New England grid. How do you like that, Massachusetts? 

  • In New Hampshire, it is keeping one of the few Coal Plants left in New England operating. How do you like that Mass.?

  • In all of New England, it is incentivizing dual resource plants using either natural gas or oil to store hundreds of thousands of gallons of oil on site for rapid deployment.

  • All the news people want you to believe wind and solar is depressing prices, when, in fact, wind and solar increase the costs of standby energy resources.

A vote for Mills is a vote for even higher heating, cooling and electricity prices, and even higher gasoline and diesel prices

It is your pocketbook that is being robbed by the Mills subsidy harvesters

If Millstone Nuclear plant were closed, southern New England would have frequent rolling black-outs, especially during winter, when solar often amounts to nothing, because panels are covered with snow and ice, per ISO-NE analysis

So How Are Energy Prices Working For Mainers and Maine Business??
The Great Lie of "Renewable Unreliables", Relying on Reliable High BTU DENSE  FOSSIL FUELS!
The Narrative of "THE GREEN DREAM".
(Also Known as We The People’s Nightmare)
EXPOSED for ALL to SEE, created by  the" Elites"  to  FEED off of the Energy Uneducated (one monthly bill at a time), UNTIL the AWAKENING exposes the GREAT LIE of the Agenda 21 UN Narrative, World Economic Forum agenda, General  Janet Mills et al.


They know Best, for “We the People “, of course.

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.
