This week’s roundup leads with South Australia’s return to dirty diesel generators. SA is touted as Australia’s wind and solar capital, and its quiet effort to increase diesel generation capacity stands as one almighty embarrassing admission of failure.
In other news, Peter Dutton (Australia’s Federal opposition leader) is channelling Donald J Trump with an announcement that he will scrap a raft of ludicrous offshore wind power projects if he wins office at the next election – likely to be held in March.
We’ve got stories on the increasing chaos created by uncontrollable, subsidised rooftop solar; how another lengthy wind drought has left Germany’s grid on the brink of collapse, yet again; how the wind and sun cult use bogus figures to backup their delusional claims; and on the brewing toxic timebomb being created by millions of spent turbine blades on their way to landfills near you.
