Too much money!
I’ve looked at the National Weather Service wind forecast maps.
Wind is just too unreliable.
And to top it off, it’s been another quite cloudy and cold day here in my part of Florida. It’s been dreary and cold for about a month here. At least late today is not so cold that I would want to crawl under the covers of my bed in the early evening.
If Joe Biden thinks fossil fuels will be going the way of the dinosaurs he is wrong again.
In other news, representatives from the Gambino and Colombo families called to apologize for not preparing the Governor for this sort of thing. "Dese guys," said one, "Dey make us look like da Little Sisters Of Da Poor."
They filled multiple fields near me with solar panels.
There was an experimental wind turbine that they tore down, it was a smaller aerial footprint then a standard one and killed less birds.
But the ecoyuppies want to force everyone to use electric vehicles which the grid can’t handle.
And they don’t want useful and workable new generation capacity either.
Case in point, how they went ape stuffing crazy over the gas compressor generator in Orange County NY.
And nothing of value was lost that day.
That’s okay. Deep State has a backup plan, doesn’t it...
“”Coupled with the disaster that is #Bidenomics and vanishing government subsidies have wreaked havoc with developers and projects.””
And this from a few months ago:
“”Danish wind developer Orsted is halting the development of two massive New Jersey offshore wind projects due to cascading economic pressures, including skyrocketing interest rates and a supply chain crunch””
Some of the articles published about Orsted mentioned billions in incentives & subsidies (taxpayer $$$), but Orsted stated that even with all the taxpayer $$$ up front, it is still not economically viable.
Not mentioned in any current articles is what happens when the wind is not blowing, especially when it is very cold. Some of the wind mechanisms HAVE TO be kept warm. Hydrocarbons (fossil fuels for those of you in Rio Linda) like natural gas are used to keep these mechanisms warm.
Speaking of hydrocarbons, what about the construction and transportation of all of the giant towers, blades, etc? I doubt that the factories and trucks used to produce and transport are solar powered. Just sayin’.
Can we still demand they abandon evil fossil fuels?
NYC relies on 24 in-city power plants that run on natural gas and/or fuel oil. Most of these plants were built decades ago and 70% are over 50 years old. In addition to releasing GHGs that contribute to climate change, these plants release air pollutants that cause air quality and health issues in NYC communities.
Equinor is a Norwegian oil/energy company, 67% owned by the Norwegian Government. Because of that, it has all the expected stupidity and politics one would expect.
In 2020, it sold its share in a Canadian oil producer, with 1.2 billion barrels of reserves, for a mere $18 million, because Canadian heavy oil was somehow immoral
Their share would be worth about $450 million, if they simply waited another 2 years.
they instead used their profits from a monopoly position on Norwegian hydrocarbons, to invest in fashionable, political “green energy” projects.
Its a POS company that should be avoided by every investor
LOLOL! “Tips up”
Okay, this sounds suspiciously like many of the projects that Andrew Cuomo put together during his terms as Governor. Billions of dollars spent on green, and technology projects that never got off the ground, or the companies backed out of the deals. In three of those projects under Cuomo, two of his top aides and some contractors were charged with corruption and fraud, found guilty, and are serving time in Federal pens. One of them was in charge of the corrupt bidding process he put in place on at least two of the projects. Those projects were used to fill the pockets of Cuomo’s big donors. People made money on these failed projects, and it sounds like it might have happened again.
Best News of the week
LOL,
“Tips Up”....
Still with the rising ocean debacle.
Why are they living on an island if they're so terrified of drowning?
In NJ this cost $BILLIONS to the taxpayers, countless dead Wales and destruction of powerplants.NJ voters are mentally retarded.
