Wind farm neighbours are forced to endure all manner of wholly unnecessary suffering. Incessant turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound drives them nuts at nighttime or, in plenty of cases, out of their homes, altogether. In Ontario, around the shores of the Great Lakes, the latest outrage involves wind power outfits destroying local underground … Continue reading Ontario: Water, Water Everywhere – But Thanks to Wind Turbines – Not A Drop to Drink

Neighbourhood Nuisance: UK Wind Farm Operator Fined £51,000 For Noisy Turbine
Driving neighbours nuts with incessant wind turbine generated low-frequency noise and infra-sound is what the wind industry does best. Wind power outfits literally create headaches wherever they ply their subsidy-soaked trade. But, increasingly, people and communities with the temerity to stand up for their rights are doing just that. And winning. Fined £51,000 ... for … Continue reading Neighbourhood Nuisance: UK Wind Farm Operator Fined £51,000 For Noisy Turbine
Move Over Cuba: Australia’s Renewables Debacle Leads to Mandated Power Rationing
One mark of a developed economy, is its ability to deliver affordable power, without fail. Resource rich Australia once enjoyed the cheapest power prices in the world, blackouts were almost exclusively the result of catastrophic storms, and there was no such thing as mass load shedding. Now, Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy debacle has left it … Continue reading Move Over Cuba: Australia’s Renewables Debacle Leads to Mandated Power Rationing
Victims Vindicated: Wind Turbine Noise Exposure Proven ‘Pathway to Disease’
Last December, Australia’s Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) held that “noise annoyance” caused by wind turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound “is a plausible pathway to disease”, based on the “established association between noise annoyance and some diseases, including hypertension and cardiovascular disease, possibly mediated in part by disturbed sleep and/or psychological stress/distress.” The AAT also slammed … Continue reading Victims Vindicated: Wind Turbine Noise Exposure Proven ‘Pathway to Disease’
System Reboot Required: Undoing Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Disaster
For some strange reason, wind ‘powered’ Victoria and South Australia suffer wholesale prices around double what’s paid in coal-fired Queensland and NSW? Could it be that massively subsidised, intermittent and unreliable wind power has wrecked power markets in Daniel Andrew’s Victoria and Jay Weatherill’s SA? The graphic above appeared in The Australian, a few … Continue reading System Reboot Required: Undoing Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Disaster
SA Premier Promises to Double Power Prices & Destroy Grid: 75% RET = 100% Lunacy
Looking for an example of how to destroy an economy? Look no further than wind ‘powered’ South Australia. Where Australia’s other capital cities are growing so fast that they look like bursting, Adelaide’s population is shrinking; the best and brightest exit as fast their Commodores can carry them, leaving an ageing population and a … Continue reading SA Premier Promises to Double Power Prices & Destroy Grid: 75% RET = 100% Lunacy
Business Becalmed: Australia’s Wind ‘Powered’ States Paying Businesses Tens of $Millions to Shut Down When the Wind Stops Blowing
The self-inflicted renewable energy chaos playing out in South Australia and neighbouring Victoria is as costly as it is insane. Both states are headed up by neo-Marxists; and both states have energy policies designed by lunatics. Rocketing retail power prices (SA’s are already the highest in the world, with worse to come), routine load shedding … Continue reading Business Becalmed: Australia’s Wind ‘Powered’ States Paying Businesses Tens of $Millions to Shut Down When the Wind Stops Blowing
‘Saving’ the Planet from CO2 Gas Means Cheap & Reliable Nuclear Power or Nothing
Anyone still banging on about CO2 emissions in the electricity generation sector, ought to be banging on about nothing other than nuclear power. Nuclear power is the only, stand-alone generation source that can deliver reliable, affordable power without generating CO2 gas, in the process. The fact that politicians in this Country talk about anything but … Continue reading ‘Saving’ the Planet from CO2 Gas Means Cheap & Reliable Nuclear Power or Nothing
Fool’s Paradise: Germany’s Renewable Policy an Economic & Environmental Disaster
Germany has long been held up as the poster child for wind and solar power, but the picture is now more tragedy, than triumph. In Germany, around €130 billion has already been burnt on renewable subsidies; currently the green energy levy costs power consumers €56 million every day. And, the level of subsidy for … Continue reading Fool’s Paradise: Germany’s Renewable Policy an Economic & Environmental Disaster
Deadly Cool: Wind Turbine Throws Ice Chunks Into US College
Throwing 10 tonne blades hundreds of metres, and chunks thereof, for kilometres isn’t the limit of the wholly unnecessary risk created by giant wind turbines. No, in cooler climes, neighbours are trained in the art of dodging lethal flying chunks of ice, too. To the uninitiated, ‘ice throw’ (another wind industry euphemism) might sound … Continue reading Deadly Cool: Wind Turbine Throws Ice Chunks Into US College
