Version 1 (Male voice) Delmarva Power claims offshore wind energy would raise our electric rates 30 to 40 percent. But the Public Service Commission says it would be no more than 5 percent—and that’s only if fossil fuel prices go down instead of up. Instead coal and natural gas are climbing sky-high. Call your state senator to say we want them to decide on offshore wind power based on the facts—not Delmarva Power’s scare tactics. Paid for by individual citizens through Delaware Audubon.
Version 2 (Female voice) Delmarva Power claims offshore wind energy would raise electric rates 30 to 40 percent. But the Public Service Commission and independent experts say rates would rise no more than 5 percent—and that’s based on Delmarva’s assumption that fossil fuel prices will drop. Assume that fossil fuel prices will drop? Fuel prices are going through the roof! Call your state senator to say we want them to choose offshore wind power based on the facts—and not buckle under to Delmarva Power’s scare tactics.
Goood stuff.
These were paid for by individual citizens through Delaware Audubon and should have started running on WDEL this morning.
