Ken, perhaps you are defending the indefensible based on emotion or politics.
The same for any studies by the offshore companies. Mary Beth Carozza’s tome, another example, contains more speculation than fact. Each side is engaged in propaganda. Me? I don’t want to see the things. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: The studies are not from the same source. From the same university, yes. But the first study was done by the economics department. The one regarding lowering electricity prices was done by the environmental department. The offshore wind studies and reports that I have seen done by university environmental departments or based on telephone surveys , it appears, are biased at their conception . I would add that those done featuring Block Island are also irrelevant based on the uniqueness of that one situation . I'm not sure what studies/reports on electric costs have been already covered but I list these three for consideration: • The Cato Institute -https://www.cato.org/blog/unpacking-high-cost-offshore-wind-policy#:~:text=According%20to%20recent%20LCOE%20estimates,have%20become%20common%20reference%20points. • The John Locke Foundation -https://www.johnlocke.org/electricity-prices-would-skyrocket-under-coopers-offshore-wind-goals/ • USA Today - https://www.northjersey.com/story/opinion/2024/06/19/northeast-offshore-wind-will-impact-taxpayers/74137608007/ |
