Ten years ago when NG prices spiked, you couldn’t give away NG powered turbines. Since Fort Knox has its own NG wells, this will not be a problem.

““We’re going to give back the gold (to the public) because of this project,” Edwards said.”

The Commander should use them for the POST now. HARDEN CTY can now use the ex-post power for them selves.

Our whole universe of military assets are in the line of fire under this administration. I seriously doubt the bases will be energy independent for any benefit of ours. Things are upside down.

Obama is too quiet and getting by with staying that way.

It is eerie how many generals are now speaking out. I can’t tell if it’s for real entirely, or a political maneuver by our side. But with the veil off the Ben Laden trove, the generals privy to the facts and the docs are plenty chatty.

At campaign time, however, is anything ever really what it seems?

This is total BS. You're not "off the grid" when you use the grid to "buffer" your supply with your demand. This is the exact problem with wind and solar energy. If you can't store the energy when the sun is shining or when the wind is blowing to use it when they're not shining or blowing, you're not off the grid.

It's even worse, when laws require the power companies to buy excess power for the same price as they sell it. This means that they have to keep the coal fired plants humming even when no one is buying it, just in case a cloud blows over the solar panels, or a lull in the wind comes along.

When they cut the wires, and take down the power poles, then they're "off the grid".

How is having your own gas wells being “off the grid”? I thought fossil fuels were the devil.
