Electrical Power Generation to Fall Short in Near Future

I just heard a commercial by the Serra Club on a meeting in Madison, WI., to help organize efforts of corporations and businesses of all sizes to comply with projected new carbon dioxide levels. They proclaimed that they want all coal fired electrical generation plants must to stopped.

I listened to see what they had in mind to replace these plants but there was only a soft woman voice speaking to a small child about how we must save the planet. I took it that the child represented the general public. Those of us that can't go south in the winter want to say warm in the winter and have power for lights and hot water heaters. How silly -

The church of global warming is a very real threat to our well being, make no mistake about this. The true believers will not listen to debate or common sense. They know they have the upper hand with The New Socialist Progressive Party on their side. Everyone seems to be filing into the church and even sitting in the front pew.

I have posted several times on this subject and I will continue to do so. As you will recall, nuclear power generation is not an option as well to the true believers. The only option is solar, wind, and bio. And with the price of food skyrocketing, ethanol is not the answer by any means.

I believe we all must do what we can to stop the reverend Al from creating a total collapse of our economy and therefore our way of life. We must demand common sense be the guide in electrical generation and not fantasies of times gone by. We can stop them and to do it all we have to is pay attention and get sucked into the wide eyed hysteria.

Here is just one small statistic on electrical generation in the future. By the year 2020, wind, solar and bio will constitute only 18% of the demand for power. Where will the other 82% come from? No nuclear, No coal, No oil. Think about that when you hear those in the pew next to you talk about shutting down all coal fired plants

Stay warm and keep the faith, the battle is joined!


Threat to capacity seen in Carbon Worries

(from the Wisconsin Energy Cooperative News)

A British newspaper is reporting that the adequacy of the us electric generation could be compromised within three years if utilities fears over the carbon dioxide regulations continue delaying construction of new power plants

The financial Times of Landon quoted Sempra Energy CFO Mark Snell last month saying , "Outside of natural gas investment in traditional fossil fuel power generation, especially coal, has almost come to a halt".

The Times said parts of the us are projected to fall below targeted capacity margins in two to three years if more generation isn't built, quoting Rick Sergel, head of the North American Electric Reliably Corporation.
