Where do they plan on locating the 100-megawatts of utility-scale batteries?

Numerous developers including D. E. Shaw Renewable Investments (DESRI) in our valley are vying to plug into the large Eversource electrical transmission line that runs from North Bloomfield to Agawam. Its desire is to install massive batteries that are primarily made from lithium and other toxic metals. The problem is that the public isn’t being told about some of their locations.

Granby’s finances

More than half of the leadership positions of the board of selectmen, board of education and board of finance (BOF) are on this year’s ballot. Whether it is the quality of education that our children receive, the quality of town services, and most importantly, the changes in property taxes, all are impacted by decisions those elected will make.

Environmental policy deserves facts, not spin
|
Last month, an opinion piece criticized my record on environmental issues. I agree with the writer on one important point, protecting our environment is essential—future generations depend on it. But her piece misrepresented my voting record. Legislators should be scrutinized, but that scrutiny should be based on facts, not selective scoring or political spin.
