STUFF

Duke Energy announced turbine suppliers for 402MW TX wind farm. Siemens, Mitsubishi will both provide about half. Online late '12. Siemens also got 69MW order for First Wind's Oahu farm. What's wrong with GE? No buy American, GI.

US solar majors to petition for duties on imports (Chinese).

Wind power now up to 15% of TX el supply. But now Perry would let production tax credit provision for wind power that he previously supported expire if he were president. Gotta love politicians, huh?

US, Brit, Italian comps to spend $100B on Iraq oil fields. How'd Italy get in there?

Red tide blooms off TX coast.

Powers Energy no longer plans to build $300M trash-to-energy plant in Schneider, Indiana.

POET, Abengoa, BP cellulosic ethanol plants all coming online in '13.

Belgian small fuel suppliers sue to end mandates for E4 ethanol and B4 biodiesel blends.

And the websites are clamping down on free information. As states are going for sales tax on internet sales. So it seems. Change always a constant. But the pace of it always variable.

Head 'm up, pards. Move 'm out. Yip, I've been catching the old Rawhide shows on Me TV. Insomnia. Or just waking up from passing out. Happy trails.
