We are a group of citizens concerned about the rapid spread of industrial wind power generation installations across Australia.

Rolls-Royce Treatment: Britain Backs Small Modular Nuclear Power Plants

Always on, ever reliable nuclear power represents THE existential threat to chaotically intermittent wind and solar. And those profiting from the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time, know it and fear it. Hence the uptick in hysterical propaganda being fed to and through the MSM about the cost, dangers, risks and blah, blah, … Continue reading Rolls-Royce Treatment: Britain Backs Small Modular Nuclear Power Plants

Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Myth Busted: When Delusion & Reality Collide

Harnessing energy was the secret of success for every first world economy. Destroying the systems that delivered it will be the reason for their demise and ultimate failure. The notion that wind and solar can deliver the kind of power upon which those economies were built is nothing more than a grand delusion, driven by … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Myth Busted: When Delusion & Reality Collide

Wind Industry Moaning About Lack of Wind: Dark & Malevolent Forces Blamed

The wind industry led with its chin making wild claims about powering X million homes around-the-clock. As subsidised wind and solar undercut reliable generators (thanks to the subsidies and preferential scheduling) and ultimately knock them out of the market, the sporadic, chaotic and only occasional delivery of wind and solar becomes glaringly obvious. Wind power … Continue reading Wind Industry Moaning About Lack of Wind: Dark & Malevolent Forces Blamed

Propaganda Overdrive: Wind & Solar Industries Desperate to Prevent Nuclear Powered Future

Crony capitalists, overfed on massive wind and solar subsidies, are pulling out all stops to cruel the chances of a nuclear-powered future. Nothing sharpens an entrepreneur’s mind like real competition. And, usually, the first move is to knock out the competition before it reaches the field. Which is where Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research … Continue reading Propaganda Overdrive: Wind & Solar Industries Desperate to Prevent Nuclear Powered Future

Mister Floppy: Strong Winds Wiping Out (More) Ageing Wind Turbines

As they get older, wind turbines have a hard time keeping it together. Hit ‘em with strong wind and the fun begins. Blades disintegrate, and chunks thereof relocate over vast distances - an exhilarating experience for anyone living, working or driving in the throw zone. Sometimes the entire hundred-tonne nacelle gets in on the action; … Continue reading Mister Floppy: Strong Winds Wiping Out (More) Ageing Wind Turbines

Grand Energy ‘Transition’ Unravels: Power-Starved Dutch Ditch Renewables & Go For Gas

Europe’s wind and solar ‘transition’ continues to unravel, with the Dutch the latest to ditch the pitch to so-called ‘renewables’. Small (geographically) and industrious, the Dutch have always managed to punch well above their weight, dominating seafaring trade through history and, these days, producing a staggeringly large proportion of the foodstuffs that are consumed around … Continue reading Grand Energy ‘Transition’ Unravels: Power-Starved Dutch Ditch Renewables & Go For Gas

Price Drop: Finland’s Grand Nuclear Move Delivers Cheap Power Bonanza

Thanks to their new nuclear power plants, Finns went from suffering among Europe’s highest power prices to enjoying its lowest. They now pay a mere fraction of what their wind and solar obsessed German neighbours are forced to pay for an ideological and delusional obsession. When Finland fired up its 1,600MW Olkiluoto 3 nuclear plant … Continue reading Price Drop: Finland’s Grand Nuclear Move Delivers Cheap Power Bonanza

Electrical Sewage: Power Grid Slugs Householders For Costs of Managing Daily Solar Surge

The inability to control wind and solar output is the very definition of chaos. Domestic solar panels reach their maximum output around noon. At midnight, not so much. Call it all or nothing. Dealing with the noonday surge has become the bane of grid managers and the grand disruptor of once orderly power markets. The … Continue reading Electrical Sewage: Power Grid Slugs Householders For Costs of Managing Daily Solar Surge

Wind Industry’s Tree Wipeout Hits New Low With Plans to Destroy Veterans’ Memorial

The land area destroyed to house a couple of wind turbines (often in pristine forests) compares unfavourably with the area needed to house a single nuclear power plant. See above - the area gouged out of one of Queensland’s (previously untouched) tropical rainforests to allow space for just two of these things - huge strips … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Tree Wipeout Hits New Low With Plans to Destroy Veterans’ Memorial

Tornado Terror: Giant Industrial Wind Turbines No Match For America’s Twisters

Wind power is described as the pinnacle of ‘distributed’ generation systems - watching 250m turbines being distributed far and wide by Cyclones, Typhoons and Hurricanes certainly gives that impression. Although, we’re not sure that wind acolytes really had disintegrating and self-immolating turbines in mind when they began mouthing off these things being spread from horizon … Continue reading Tornado Terror: Giant Industrial Wind Turbines No Match For America’s Twisters
