Whatever policies are directed at recovering from the coronavirus lockdown, without reliable and affordable power Australia’s energy hungry businesses are doomed. With rocketing power prices, and an intermittent supply, mineral processors and manufacturers are terminal, and have been for years. Politicians and academic boffins have been giving lip service to improving Australia’s “resilience” and “self-sufficiency”, … Continue reading Save Our Jobs: Australia’s Economic Recovery Demands Reliable & Affordable Coal-Fired Power

Green-Left Fury: Don’t Mention Mike Moore’s Planet of the Humans – Or Else …
Like a meteor out of the blue, Michael Moore’s Planet of the Humans caught the climate cult napping, smug in the belief that they had a complete grip on the world's energy policy, now and forever. The film – produced by Moore and made by Jeff Gibbs – has been uploaded to YouTube to allow … Continue reading Green-Left Fury: Don’t Mention Mike Moore’s Planet of the Humans – Or Else …
Pure Unbridled Chaos: Why Unreliable and Intermittent Wind & Solar Destabilise Power Grids
The more intermittent wind and solar get added to the grid, the greater the risk that their chaotic delivery of power will wreck it. By which we mean the delivery of an entire ‘system black’ - of the kind that Australia’s wind and solar capital, South Australia became world-renowned for. Depicted above – courtesy of Aneroid … Continue reading Pure Unbridled Chaos: Why Unreliable and Intermittent Wind & Solar Destabilise Power Grids
Power Generation & Distribution For Dummies (or Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Will Never Work)
If you’re looking to wreck a grid and send power prices into orbit, then pin your power hopes to wind and solar power delivered at mother nature’s whims. South Australia did; it suffers the world’s highest retail power prices and became the butt of international jokes for a series of weather-related mass blackouts. Looking for an example? Take a … Continue reading Power Generation & Distribution For Dummies (or Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Will Never Work)
Green-Left Furious at Michael Moore For Exposing Renewable Energy As Complete Fraud
There is a particular delight in watching the hard-green-left tear each other apart, which is precisely the result of Michael Moore’s Planet of the Humans. The film – produced by Moore and made by Jeff Gibbs – has been uploaded to YouTube to allow all and sundry to get the message: renewable energy is the … Continue reading Green-Left Furious at Michael Moore For Exposing Renewable Energy As Complete Fraud
Hydrogen Hoax: Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Demand Subsidies To Convert Their Chaotic Power Into Gas
Producing hydrogen gas using chaotically intermittent wind and solar is only the latest hoax being peddled by renewable energy rent seekers and other crony capitalists. The majority of hydrogen available on the market (around 95%) is produced from fossil fuels by steam reforming or partial oxidation of methane and coal gasification with only a tiny … Continue reading Hydrogen Hoax: Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Demand Subsidies To Convert Their Chaotic Power Into Gas
Sunset ‘Industry’: If Solar Power is SO Cheap, Why Not Scrap The Subsidies Right Now?
Australian government subsidies to domestic rooftop solar are insanely generous, and are costing taxpayers more than $1.7 billion annually. The real beneficiaries of these massive and endless subsidies are, of course, the Chinese who manufacture the panels and export them to places like Australia, where a strange mix of greed and avarice, combines with a … Continue reading Sunset ‘Industry’: If Solar Power is SO Cheap, Why Not Scrap The Subsidies Right Now?
Suicide Watch: Morrison Government’s Latest Energy Policy A Guaranteed Economy Wrecker

At a time when every industry and business is looking for some sign of sense and reason from policymakers, instead of delivering a raft of policies that just might … Continue reading Suicide Watch: Morrison Government’s Latest Energy Policy A Guaranteed Economy Wrecker
Parasitic Power: Intermittent Wind & Solar Take More From Power Grid Than They Ever Add
Applying scarce resources so that the benefits always outweigh the costs is rational, but subsidised wind and solar will never fit that bill. Putting aside the minerals and the energy required to convert those minerals that is embodied in solar panels and wind turbines, it’s the fact that - no matter how much wind and … Continue reading Parasitic Power: Intermittent Wind & Solar Take More From Power Grid Than They Ever Add
Heaven Help Us: Push For More Subsidised & Intermittent Wind & Solar Adds to COVID-19 Chaos
The coronavirus has delivered a global recession, now RE rent seekers want to deliver a truly Great Depression, with desperate calls for even more subsidies for chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Since Britain launched into its wind power obsession in 2002, retail power prices have more than doubled. Which tends to run against the mantra … Continue reading Heaven Help Us: Push For More Subsidised & Intermittent Wind & Solar Adds to COVID-19 Chaos
