[QUOTE="Trip McNeely, post: 431110, member: 728"] I don’t understand why we can’t utilize current infrastructure for these solar projects…… ever been to the top floor of the capital? There’s a lot of commercial roofs and parking structures in Bismarck. Why not use space already being used 🤷🏼 Im not a big fan of wind farms or solar farms. The scale and impact to environment is worse than oil and gas IMO. I’ve seen all sorts of critters on the berms of a well pad. From what I can tell after developing them they don’t bother wildlife that much. I grew up near a wind farm. They do change waterfowl flight paths and feeding routes 100%. Instead of incentives for large scale green energy projects couldn’t we shift it to smaller scale and per consumer incentives. Wind/solar on buildings etc….. incentivize supplemental power usage which would reduce grid consumption and make individual buildings more energy independent. [/QUOTE]
