Funny how 120 years ago Great Britain figured out how to run natural gas pipelines all through out the British country side but in the “capitalist” utopia of America we can’t seem to manage to do that.
The problem is that a lot of NH is till rural.
So, the closest natural gas line to my house is about 3 miles away. They brought it out to the middle school and high school. It stopped there. There is also a lot of ledge around here. They don’t call it the granite state for nothing.
A couple years ago they proposed bringing another 3’
NG pipeline from PA through, NY, MA, NH and back into MA. However, the whole NIMBY effect came into play. Even though most of it would have gone through an existing ROW owned by the electric company. In my town they would have replaced the existing 1’ diameter line with a 3’ diameter line. All the stupid liberals were against it.
It is just like when all the people in northern NH were against bringing power lines south from Quebec Hydro. The people up north didn’t want it to ruin their view. NIMBY. Stupid is as stupid does.
