Governments hooked on chaotically delivered wind and solar soon start restricting and micromanaging household power use around calm weather and sunset. So-called ‘smart meters’ are a very dumb response to intermittent wind and solar - even dumber energy sources. ‘Demand management’ is not about giving power consumers what they need, it simply means shutting off … Continue reading Demand-Limiting ‘Smart’ Meters Inevitable Response to Chaotic Wind & Solar Generation
Slashed By Weather: America’s Wind Power Output Plummets 14% To Record Low
America’s wind industry is moaning about the lack of wind, much like the Ancient Mariner becalmed and befuddled by the weather. Down dropt the breeze, the sails dropt down, ‘Twas sad as sad could be; And we did speak only to break The silence of the sea! All in a hot and copper sky, The … Continue reading Slashed By Weather: America’s Wind Power Output Plummets 14% To Record Low
Business Freeze: Germany’s Last Solar Panel Manufacturers Finally Crushed
Germany’s costly and chaotic wind and solar transition has served up plenty of casualties. Large numbers of energy intensive manufacturers have already bailed out - chasing cheap power prices in places like the US and Singapore. Now, in a rather ironic twist, its solar panel manufacturing industry has all but thrown in the towel. Notwithstanding … Continue reading Business Freeze: Germany’s Last Solar Panel Manufacturers Finally Crushed
Full-blown Financial Meltdown: Offshore Wind Industry’s Collapse Accelerates
America’s offshore wind industry is collapsing, both figuratively and literally. Offshore turbines have grown in capacity and size to the point where they simply collapse into the ocean. As do the financial prospects of those seeking to profit from them. One of the key players offshore - GE’s renewables division - backed up a solid … Continue reading Full-blown Financial Meltdown: Offshore Wind Industry’s Collapse Accelerates
Wind Industry’s Wanton Whale Slaughter Caused by Constant Deafening Construction Noise
Try as they might, the offshore wind industry can’t conceal the fact that their construction operations are killing hundreds of whales, dolphins, seals and much, much more. The underwater cacophony created during offshore construction is laid out in Michael Shellenberger’s documentary Thrown To The Wind (see the video below) and this post: US Govt Lying … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Wanton Whale Slaughter Caused by Constant Deafening Construction Noise
Faking It: Why ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Claims Never Stack Up
Like any ideological cult, wind and solar acolytes bury troublesome facts and replace them with oodles of helpful fiction. Start with the supposed cost of the electricity occasionally generated by wind turbines and solar panels. The usual trick is to invent some model said to capture the unique benefits of running on sunshine and breezes. … Continue reading Faking It: Why ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Claims Never Stack Up
Wind Industry Always Knew That Wind Turbine Noise Exposure Causes Adverse Health Effects
The wind industry has worked very hard to cover up sleep deprivation and other adverse health effects caused by turbine-generated low-frequency noise and infrasound. It started with the woefully inadequate, indeed, utterly irrelevant noise standards written by the wind industry; and the institutional corruption that: a) allowed those standards to become the “benchmarks” in the first … Continue reading Wind Industry Always Knew That Wind Turbine Noise Exposure Causes Adverse Health Effects
Exorbitant ‘Green’ Energy Costs Responsible For German Industry’s Economic Meltdown
The rocketing power prices caused by Germany’s headlong wind and solar rush are crushing its once thriving industries, including outfits like Mercedes-Benz. German households and businesses are already suffering Europe’s highest power prices; following Putin’s assault on Ukraine, German power prices rocketed, further still, hitting a record 40 US cents per kWh. Power rationing is already … Continue reading Exorbitant ‘Green’ Energy Costs Responsible For German Industry’s Economic Meltdown
Wind Industry’s Extraordinary Efforts to Conceal Wholesale Eagle Slaughter
The rampant slaughter of millions of birds and bats – includes rare, endangered and majestic species, like America’s iconic bald and golden eagles, and Tasmania’s extremely rare wedge-tailed Eagle. Faced with outrage from real environmentalists, to date, the default response from the wind industry is to lie like fury and – when the corpses can no longer … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Extraordinary Efforts to Conceal Wholesale Eagle Slaughter
Unreliable Wind & Solar Deliver Increased Risk of Costly & Deadly Blackouts
Increasing reliance on wind and solar - aka the ‘unreliables’ - means, that hundreds of businesses and hundreds of thousands of homes often miss out on power when they need it most. Attempting to run on sunshine and breezes is a lot like musical chairs: a game where someone always misses out. Think wind and … Continue reading Unreliable Wind & Solar Deliver Increased Risk of Costly & Deadly Blackouts
