Want Solar????

Think solar is just a nice little friendly low impact power source?  Apparently our town officials thinks so asking the NYPSC and BP for a solar alternative from instead of wind.  Maybe they better get a clue!

 The picture below is  heavy graders lined up ready to start scaping the land flat for an industrial scale solar voltaic power plant in Nevada south of Las Vegas at the same solar installation as I pictured in a post below.

Now look at this and honestly tell me that this is what the intent of our new comp plan and zoning are providing for?  Seriously?  Where in the hell are our town officers coming up with this nonsense???

They have become this irrational to appease Art X, Cuomo and the PSC! 




What was that about the environmental concerns for our community
and the birds and animals that roam our fields and woods!!!

Gee I wonder what this would do to near by property values?????

And our town board has the arrogance to suggest to the NYPSC that
commercial industrial solar is a good thing for other NY communities!

This solar power plant when finished will produce 150MW of electricity
with an absurd  24% capacity factor, or 36 MW when averaged annually
for all this land and habitat destruction.  And keep in mind this is in
Nevada ,one of the consistently sunniest places in the U.S. You ain't going
to get anywhere near that performance in Cape Vincent. 





Yeah baby...let's just scrape it flat and put up them solar panels!!!!

Oh yeah... this is a brilliant idea from our town "experts"!
