Green Energy Fail: New England Facing Rolling Blackouts this Winter

Essay by Eric Worrall

h/t Dr. Willie Soon; SURPRISE – Cold place which repeatedly rejects new gas pipeline proposals is running short of gas.

New England faces rolling BLACKOUTS this winter with bills set to soar amid fight for natural gas imports with Europe – despite US being one of world’s biggest producers

Severe cold spells in the Northeast could reduce the amount of gas available, as more of it is burned to heat homes

America is now competing with European countries for shipments of liquefied gas because of Russia’s decision to halt pipeline gas to the continent

New England does not import American LNG, because of the Jones Act, with the majority of the gas delivered coming from Trinidad and Tobago

ISO New England Inc have warned that an extreme cold snap could result in the need for rolling blackouts to keep supply and demand in balance

There's plenty of frac'ed gas in north/central Pennsylvania.

But you can't get enough of it to New England because New York State is "in the way", and NY won't allow any new pipelines to be constructed.

If Mr. Trump resumes office in 2025, there must be some way that he can FORCE NY state to accept pipeline construction. Through eminent domain, emergency orders, or by whatever means necessary.

Perhaps it's time for our own version of the "Nordstream pipeline" -- running under the Atlantic from around Cape May area northeast to Connecticut, bypassing New Jersey and Long Island. Or through NJ if that state will cooperate, but again, bypassing NY.

Or perhaps go northward from the Erie area, under lake Erie, up into Canada, under lake Ontario if necessary, and then down through Vermont (which might resist) or New Hampshire.

New thinking is in order here.

Precisely.
