We have good friends in Coos Bay. In 2003 they were proposing a natural gas import terminal because the prediction was that the US production could not keep up. It was fought against. Now they are talking liquefaction for export. What a difference a few years make.

As for the wind power, this is the best location for wind turbines in the US and perhaps the capacity factor can get above 50% there. Still, would the numbers work given corrosion and maintenance costs?

I don’t see how the numbers will work out unless there’s a huge increase in rates.
