Wind developers face liability in the millions for the nuisance caused by unrelenting, turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound. Litigation is where the rubber hits the road: myths get replaced with facts; evidence overtakes spin and propaganda. Court rooms (and where they determine the facts, juries) strike fear into the (ordinarily icy) hearts of those … Continue reading Litigation Breakout: More US Wind Farm Noise Victims Sue Developers for Nuisance

Staggering Cost of Ontario’s Disastrous Wind Power Experiment
Like South Australia, Ontario is another place where ideologues destroyed a perfectly reliable and thoroughly affordable electricity supply. In both cases the economic consequences have been a disaster. Its Liberal Government under Kathleen Wynne took the insanity to new levels, and Ontario will be paying the price, for generations to come. Wynne and her band … Continue reading Staggering Cost of Ontario’s Disastrous Wind Power Experiment
Wind Power Chaos: There When You Don’t Need It – Never There When You Do
It’s no news to sailors, that the wind is never there when you need it and often there when you don’t.

Bucking the trend set by the Industrial Revolution, Australia’s wind power capital, South Australia … Continue reading Wind Power Chaos: There When You Don’t Need It – Never There When You Do
Poles Apart: Polish Government Bans New Wind Farms & All Existing Turbines Gone by 2035
Faced with thousand of furious rural voters sick of being overrun by industrial wind turbines, Poland has effectively banned all new onshore wind farms.

Want Rocketing Power Prices? Just Add Intermittent Wind & Solar – South Australia Did
There’s something uncanny about the relationship between rocketing power prices and renewable energy: ask a German, Dane or South Australian. Despite some recent propaganda efforts suggesting that South Australians are currently enjoying 1970s power prices, Australia’s renewable energy capital still pays the world’s highest power prices – thanks to its ludicrous 50% Renewable Energy Target. The subsidies … Continue reading Want Rocketing Power Prices? Just Add Intermittent Wind & Solar – South Australia Did
Suckers Sign Here: Wind Turbine Hosts Taken For Fools By Developers in One-Sided Land Contracts
The great wind power fraud depends on a few gullible land owners signing up to host turbines, just to pocket a few pieces of silver -selling their souls to charming wind power outfits like Thailand’s RATCH (see our posts here and here and here). No turbine hosts; no wind industry. Lured by annual licence fees of around $10-15,000 per turbine, … Continue reading Suckers Sign Here: Wind Turbine Hosts Taken For Fools By Developers in One-Sided Land Contracts
Germany’s Renewable Energy Fail: German CO2 Emissions 10 Times Higher than Nuclear-Powered France
The meme has it that wind and solar are all about slashing CO2 emissions, whereas that pathetic pair are just a colossal moneymaking scam. Apart from South Australia, no country other than Germany threw more at chaotically intermittent wind and solar. The results have been an utter debacle: Germans suffer the second highest power prices … Continue reading Germany’s Renewable Energy Fail: German CO2 Emissions 10 Times Higher than Nuclear-Powered France
Delusional NSW Energy Minister Claims Wind & Solar More Reliable Than Coal & Gas
Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity is down to greedy renewable energy rent seekers aided and abetted by pliant and gullible politicians. And, on the latter score, there’s none more so than the NSW Energy Minister, Don Harwin. Harwin, a sanctimonious windbag, is part of a small and insidious clique of Liberal politicians and lobbyists … Continue reading Delusional NSW Energy Minister Claims Wind & Solar More Reliable Than Coal & Gas
