Massachusetts Electric Rates Lying By Omission

Folks, Massachusetts taxpayers have been sold a wind turbine renewable energy dream over the past eight years.

Hopefully your upcoming 30% increased electric bills will wake you up ! This is just the first step!

Commercial wind turbines have established a history of catastrophic failures.

The Massachusetts renewable energy program is a catastrophic failure.

The first is the admittance by the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center and state officials of the poor placement of commercial wind turbines.They are taking the health and property rights of thousands of abutters to the turbines with NO compensation.

The second is the catastrophic gear box and maintenance problems happening within the first five years of operation. Many of the turbines installed after 2008 have already failed. Portsmouth, Rhode Island High School is in the process of taking down their multi-million dollar turbine that broke after only two years.

The third is the legal fees and court ordered shutdowns of the turbines over nuisance, human annoyance, infra sound, low frequency and regulatory noise causing lack of sleep and other health problems. Falmouth and Fairhaven, Massachusetts continue to spend taxpayer funds on the legal defense of the poorly placed wind turbines.

Now comes what rally matters. A thirty percent rate hike in your electric bill is just a taste of what is coming down the renewable energy wind turbine highway. This is just the start of raising your electric rates to triple what they are right now.

If you own a business in Massachusetts it's time to get out of town now before you become a wind turbine victim yourself.

Governor Patrick told you of thousands of renewable energy jobs building the New Bedford ocean wind turbine port. How many people did they really hire ? Not more than fifty and 90 percent of them were from New York and New Jersey.

Governor Patrick never told you how many people will lose their jobs as a result of tripling your electric bills. I call this lying by omission.

If you own a business in Massachusetts after you get your thirty percent electric rate increase next year ask how muck longer can you hold on when that rate gets tripled ?

This is the formula for commercial wind turbines:

Under the current Massachusetts Grid operators rules, the traditional power companies gas, coal, oil have to bid on power the day before they get paid; for example, 6 cents per kilowatt hour.

Under the current rules, the commercial wind turbine companies automatically get paid the day they produce the power for example, 18 cents per kWh because they can only produce power when the wind blows.

The Grid operator has to take the renewable energy wind product first that day.

The traditional power company is glad to stand down when the commercial wind turbine company is producing power.

What the public needs to understand is that in Massachusetts, when the commercial wind company is getting paid the 18 cents, the traditional company that bid the previous day stands down and gets paid anyway.

Thus the cost to Massachusetts electric rate payers is the 18 cents plus the 6 cents the traditional company bid the previous day.

The cost per kilowatt hour could cost up to four times normal bid costs.

Massachusetts needs to review the electric bid process and how it affects residential and business customers.

Massachusetts is one of the few states to use the current formula.

If you own a business in Massachusetts don't wait to become a wind turbine victim
