Few issues demonstrate how childish the level of political discourse is in Australia than nuclear power. Its mere mention drives the loony-left into apoplexy and moderates into hiding. Australia holds the world’s largest uranium reserves and, despite its limited three mines policy, is the world’s third-largest uranium exporter. So, it generally surprises other members … Continue reading Australia’s Self-Inflicted Energy Crisis Screaming Out for Nuclear Powered Solution

Psycho Simon: Renewable Energy Zealots Incite Terrorism Against Wind & Solar Critics
As a rule, RE zealots are not only stupid and selfish, they’re invariably nasty and prone to fits of outrage and violence. Leading the gang in Australia is silver-spooner, Simon Holmes a Court. Simon has a Masters in Smug, the result of the enormous pile accumulated by his (late) billionaire corporate-raider daddy, Robert. And claims … Continue reading Psycho Simon: Renewable Energy Zealots Incite Terrorism Against Wind & Solar Critics
French Farmers Re-Volt: Cattle Killed by Stray Current Latest Victims of Wind Power Onslaught
Stray current from French wind turbines is killing cattle and their owners are furious. Electricity in the wrong place at the wrong time is a natural born killer. For the best part of a century electricity was generated in an orderly, systematic manner. Over the last decade or so obsession with wind and solar has … Continue reading French Farmers Re-Volt: Cattle Killed by Stray Current Latest Victims of Wind Power Onslaught
Reality Bites: Cheap Coal-Fired Power Killing Dreams of Australian Wind & Solar ‘Nirvana’
Wind and solar don’t compete with coal-fired power; never have, never will. You see, ‘competition’ involves starting from the same position, running the same race, over the same distance, without respite, laydown or let up. Calm weather and sunset don’t trouble coal-fired power plants (or gas or nuclear, for that matter). But the same can’t … Continue reading Reality Bites: Cheap Coal-Fired Power Killing Dreams of Australian Wind & Solar ‘Nirvana’
Brits Belted: Renewables Deliver Wholesale Energy Poverty – Poorest Families Left Power-less
RE zealots reckon that an uptick in the number of frozen grannies is a small price to pay for our ‘inevitable’ wind and solar powered future. As Brits brace for another frigid winter, spare a thought for the hundreds of thousands who - thanks to rocketing power prices driven by Britain’s renewables obsession - will … Continue reading Brits Belted: Renewables Deliver Wholesale Energy Poverty – Poorest Families Left Power-less
Solar Stupidity: Subsidy Bonanza Delivers Mass Rooftop Solar Rollout & Grid Chaos
Heavily subsidised rooftop solar is an enormous middle-class welfare scheme, the consequence of a political class wedded to vacuous virtue signalling. At the theoretical level – when the sun is up and the sky is cloud free – solar panels are generating electricity around 6.5 hours a day (on average). During their most virtuous cycle, … Continue reading Solar Stupidity: Subsidy Bonanza Delivers Mass Rooftop Solar Rollout & Grid Chaos
Power Shock: Chicago University Proves Unreliable Wind & Solar Send Power Prices Soaring
Adding chaotically intermittent wind and solar to your grid is a guarantee of rocketing power prices. The battle between the Big Three wind and solar ‘superpowers’ - South Australia, Germany and Denmark - is all about whether its South Australians, Germans or Danes who get to suffer the world’s highest power prices. The current ‘winner’ … Continue reading Power Shock: Chicago University Proves Unreliable Wind & Solar Send Power Prices Soaring
Nuclear Power: Australia’s Happy to Sell it to the World – But Allergic to Using It
If you’re reading this in Australia, you’re doing so thanks to coal. You might be doing so thanks to nuclear power, but for the fact that the idiots that govern us banned it, years ago. Talk about wind and solar replacing conventional generation is just that. Talk. The dividend from Australia’s obsession with wind and … Continue reading Nuclear Power: Australia’s Happy to Sell it to the World – But Allergic to Using It
Battery Bollocks: Why Giant Batteries Won’t Solve Wind & Solar’s Chaotic Intermittency
Almost as soon as Joe Public worked out that wind and solar can never work, RE rent seekers started babbling about giant batteries saving the day. STT will keep smashing the line about giant batteries overcoming the chaotic delivery of wind and solar, while RE zealots keep pushing it. The pitch from RE zealots is … Continue reading Battery Bollocks: Why Giant Batteries Won’t Solve Wind & Solar’s Chaotic Intermittency
Lost in Transmission: Colossal Cost of Connecting Remote Wind & Solar
RE rent seekers aren’t satisfied with $trillions in wind and solar subsidies, now they want $trillions for power grids to the middle of nowhere. The Australian wind industry has a habit of spearing its turbines way beyond the back of beyond. Increasingly remote wind farm locations require serious upgrades to transmission infrastructure, adding hundreds of $millions … Continue reading Lost in Transmission: Colossal Cost of Connecting Remote Wind & Solar
