    Radicals Pressure CT Gov. Lamont to Block Algonquin Pipe Project

    September 25, 2024September 25, 2024

    The Algonquin Gas Transmission pipeline (owned by Enbridge) transports up to 3.09 Bcf/d of natural gas through 1,131 miles of pipeline. Algonquin connects to Texas Eastern Transmission (TETCO), Millennium Pipeline, and Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline and supplies New England with critically needed natural gas supplies for power generation and consumer use. As we told you in September 2023, Enbridge conducted an open season to gauge interest in expanding Algonquin’s capacity to flow more gas into New England — mainly from the Marcellus/Utica — called Project Maple (see Enbridge Open Season to Expand Algonquin Pipe in New England). Since then, colluding Big Green groups have targeted the governors in various states to bully them into rejecting Project Maple, even though it’s a federal project under the authority of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Connecticut’s Gov. Ned Lamont is the latest to be threatened by Big Green. Read More “Radicals Pressure CT Gov. Lamont to Block Algonquin Pipe Project”

    Leftists Rattled by CNX’s Real Science and Radical Transparency

    September 25, 2024September 25, 2024

    CNX Resources released its first Radical Transparency™ assessment report in August (see Independent Monitoring of CNX Ops Shows No Public Health Threat). The initial results of nine months of continuous air emissions monitoring at natural gas well sites and compressor stations in southwestern Pennsylvania indicate that CNX natural gas development poses no public health risk. Period. The data is collected and disseminated to the public by an independent third-party contractor. This is objective you-can’t-argue-with-it data and shows CNX is not causing any kind of public health hazard. Big Green is appopletic that their lying narratives are now countered by objective (truthful) data and is attempting to smear CNX and its objective data.

    Antis Silent re Methane from Cow Poop Plant Near Seneca Lake, NY

    September 25, 2024September 25, 2024

    A gigantic 91,000-square-foot facility that turns cow poop into CH4 (methane) is set to begin construction, possibly in October, near Seneca Lake in Ontario County, NY. Yes, the beautiful countryside of Upstate New York will soon produce methane, and it will be near the largest of NY’s bucolic Finger Lakes. The facility will use the manure from 12 local dairy farms with a combined 11,000 cows to extract methane through an anaerobic digester process. The methane would then be converted into natural gas and injected into a nearby NYSEG (New York State Electric & Gas) pipeline. Wait…where’s anti-fossil fueler Sandra Steingraber from Ithaca College? Where’s anti-fossil fueler Robert Howarth from Cornell University? They both begin to froth at the mouth whenever the word “methane” is uttered publicly or privately anywhere in Upstate New York! Yet they, and groups like Food & Water Watch, the Sierra Club, and a host of other Big and Little Green groups are completely silent about this plant that will see 91 truckloads of cow poop coming and going each and every day at this plant—12 hours a day. All to produce (gasp!)…METHANE. Read More “Antis Silent re Methane from Cow Poop Plant Near Seneca Lake, NY”

    Omnis Energy Converts Coal/NatGas to Hydrogen in WV; 95% Cheaper

    September 25, 2024October 8, 2024
    Pleasants County, WV

    Omnis Energy is transforming an old, coal-fired power plant in Pleasants County, WV, into the world’s first commercial coal-to-hydrogen net-zero power plant with high-value graphite co-products. In mid-August 2024, Omnis Energy demonstrated the operation of its patented Quantum technology at the Pleasants site, featuring ultra-high-temperature pyrolysis at 3,600 degrees Celsius. The technology can also use other hydrocarbons, including Marcellus/Utica natural gas, as feedstock. Nansen G. Saleri, chairman of the Omnis Technical Advisory Board, is due to speak about the Quantum Pleasants project at the upcoming Hydrogen & Carbon Capture Conference VI on November 7 in Canonsburg, PA.

    European Methane Regs Begin to Bite Hard with US LNG Exporters

    September 25, 2024September 25, 2024

    The European Union’s idiotic methane regulations will soon come into full force, prompting oil, gas, and coal companies to monitor, measure and report their emissions. The same restrictions will also apply to energy imports coming from other countries, including the U.S. (see Europeans Presume to Impose Their Regulations on American Gas). The arrogant Europeans presume to tell us that we must follow *their* regulations! To which we say (multiple expletives deleted). Even though the new regs are not in full force until next May, the regs are already having an effect on U.S. companies, including drillers.

    Enviro Left (Including Kamala Harris) Oblivious to 2 Energy FACTS

    September 25, 2024September 25, 2024

    According to Ronald Stein, an engineer, senior policy advisor on energy literacy for CFACT (Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow, a Washington, D.C. think tank), and co-author of the Pulitzer Prize-nominated book, “Clean Energy Exploitations,” energy policymakers in the U.S. (and elsewhere) do not understand that electricity and transportation cannot exist without products made from fossil fuels. Political bureaucrats and policymakers seem to be oblivious to humanity’s addiction to oil, as they are to these two basic facts… Read More “Enviro Left (Including Kamala Harris) Oblivious to 2 Energy FACTS”
