Residents in Ireland are appalled at the scale of Industrial Infrastructure that is occurring/proposed from a flawed energy policy. I am sure this is the same in every country where big wind has been allowed to get too close to government. The Midlands groups decided to act. We began by hosting a Wind Energy Protest … Continue reading Ireland: National Wind Energy Protest March

Angus Taylor: ACT Wind Power Plan Corporate Welfare on steroids
**** True to form, Angus “the Enforcer” Taylor has gone on the front foot over the Power Purchase Agreement signed between Infigen and the ACT. Since then, it appears Thai wind scammers, RATCH have piled in on the deal too. When the deal was announced a few weeks back Angus came out swinging and hasn’t … Continue reading Angus Taylor: ACT Wind Power Plan Corporate Welfare on steroids
Long-suffering victims might just get some relief with Gromit’s help
A fair percentage of people stuck next to giant fans end up suffering severe health impacts and annoyance - especially sleep deprivation and all the negatives that come with that over the long haul.

It's a problem documented … Continue reading Long-suffering victims might just get some relief with Gromit’s help
Developers furious as opponent’s right to appeal restored in NSW
When it was in power the New South Wales State Labor government stripped opponents of their right to appeal against wind farm developments – why let people have a say, hey? The Liberal (Coalition) government has finally moved to restore them – with developers reacting with their characteristic childish impertinence. Development applications have been handled … Continue reading Developers furious as opponent’s right to appeal restored in NSW
Kill the subsidies and the wind industry dies
In recent weeks the greentard blogs have been overcome with grief as they moan about the almost inevitable consequences of the Coalition’s RET review, the future of the CEFC and now the ARENA fund - yet another taxpayer backed renewable slush fund that faces the chop.

Henry Ergas: the CEFC Labor/Green folly in the extreme
The Clean Energy Finance Corporation is the brainchild of the Green-Labor alliance that left the Australian taxpayer as the unwilling underwriters of highly speculative wind power ventures that conventional banks won't touch with a barge pole. The CEFC is an outfit living on borrowed time - the Coalition have sworn that it'll be scrapped … Continue reading Henry Ergas: the CEFC Labor/Green folly in the extreme
Gullen Range: Time for an official inquiry
We predicted last year that the Gullen Range wind farm in NSW was a disaster waiting to happen (see our post here) and it seems that we were on the money. The Gullen Range wind farm has been a planning fiasco from the get go. The locations of 69 of the 73 turbines have been changed from those authorised … Continue reading Gullen Range: Time for an official inquiry
Matthew Sinclair: Wind power is a job killer
Senator Ros Boswell called it - either you can have renewable energy or an industry sector - not both. You can remind yourself of his speech at our Wind Power Fraud Rally here - where he lists the demise of our industry sector, industry by industry, and breaks down the power bills of a Wyndham iceworks … Continue reading Matthew Sinclair: Wind power is a job killer
Annie strikes again
Annie and Gus Gardner are hard working rural folk who have shared their battles with the AGL wind factory us at our Wind Power Fraud Rally last year and in letters covered in our posts here, here, here, here, here and here. The outrage that stemmed from the Gardner's reading of the AMA position paper on wind farms … Continue reading Annie strikes again
