They can provide me with all the lifetime free elctric they would like to... I will take it !!!
That said. my average monthly electric bill is only around $90.00/month That is AVERAGE.
Highs in winter of around $150 and lows in spring and fall of maybe $50.00.
The high is based on very colder than normal winter temps here. IN the 20's or less for an extended period of time.
Then my heat pump runs on the large electric resistance coil. But not for long.
My home is extremely well insulated and has no air leaks anywhere. I have the best rated by standardized testing wind resistant windows you can get. Air does not penetrate through or around my windows or my entrance door systems either.
I spent money in the right places. And with 18 inches of insulation in attic and walls are filled as well as underneath the flooring, this place stays withing 4 degrees if I turn everything off at night and check temperature in the morning, even in winter. Pretty amazing...
Anyway, I am all in for FREE electric !!!!! Sign me up!!!
Don't waste it on LIBTARDS..... I will enjoy using it...
... and they don't even want to do what is necessary to promote wind-generated electricity! They cry and whine, "Not. In. My. Back. Yard."
Of course, Democrats are people with the rationality and emotional stability of a two-year-old, so they simply believe it is their right to use all of the energy production they want, pay nothing for it, not be inconvenienced in any way, shape, or form by its production, and to retain the privilege to disingenuously demonize the people who produce the energy they use. They are stone-cold idiots.
Blue state rejects free electricity to avoid seeing a wind farm
Put out the NIMBY alert for Maryland. This very blue state is, of course, largely onboard with the entire "keep it in the ground" movement to abandon fossil fuels and embrace renewable energy. Unless, of course, you want to generate any of that electricity within sight of the state's tony coastal communities. In Ocean City, Maryland, an energy company called U.S. Wind has plans in place to develop the second largest wind farm in the country offshore there, taking advantage of the almost constant breezes which blow in off the Atlantic. The amount of renewable electricity it would generate would be impressive indeed.
There's just one problem. The locals don't want any wind turbines within thirty miles of the coast for fear that it might obstruct the view and cut into tourism. U.S. Wind tried to tempt them by offering to invest hundreds of thousands of dollars into other community development projects as an incentive. The locals said no. The company offered to build in a guarantee that they would cover any unanticipated cost overruns so Ocean City wouldn't be stuck with the tab. The natives still wouldn't relent. The final offer was truly incredible. The developers offered to provide Ocean City with free electricity for the life of the wind farm.
Their response? Sorry. Still not interested. ...
This is a classic case of NIMBYism taken to its extremes. Maryland's liberal elites are all in favor of punishing fossil fuel companies and lecturing everyone on the need for cleaner, more "responsible" energy policies. But when the time comes to actually start generating all of the clean electricity, they don't want those nasty turbines cluttering the few from the coast. ...
