Uncontrolled Frequency: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Are Wrecking Stable Power Grids

Designed by engineers, our electricity grids are remarkable, but finely balanced affairs, being wrecked by the chaotic delivery of wind and solar power. There are 3 electricity essentials – that the power source and its delivery to homes and businesses be: 1) reliable; 2) secure; and 3) affordable. Wind and solar score NIL on all … Continue reading Uncontrolled Frequency: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Are Wrecking Stable Power Grids

Radar Alert: Offshore Wind Turbines Destroying Air & Sea Defence Systems

Offshore wind turbines are so good at wrecking radar defence systems, they look like active enemy espionage. Wind turbines standing on columns 100-150m or more above sea level, with the tips of their 50-80m blades clocking 350 kph play havoc with radar systems, giving false images and distorting real ones. The result is unnecessary danger … Continue reading Radar Alert: Offshore Wind Turbines Destroying Air & Sea Defence Systems

Frozen Supply: Unreliable Wind & Solar Means US Faces More Winter Blackouts

Northern hemisphere winters are particularly brutal on wind turbines and solar panels, the former frozen solid and the latter blanketed in snow and ice. The result being no power from either. Peak winter conditions are perfect for revealing the peak stupidity of attempting to power first world economies with generation systems that deliver nothing but … Continue reading Frozen Supply: Unreliable Wind & Solar Means US Faces More Winter Blackouts

Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Rage Against Communities Saving the Environment

The wind industry’s social licence looks increasingly like a licence to destroy everything in its path, including prosperous rural communities and precious ecosystems. Wiping out huge tracts of pristine forests - habitat to rare and endangered critters of all kinds - and slicing and dicing avian predators, like hawks, falcons and eagles and bats is … Continue reading Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Rage Against Communities Saving the Environment

Economic Euthanasia: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Energy Poverty Everywhere

Once upon a time, the object was delivering power to everyone, everywhere, all the time. Not anymore. Chaotically delivered and heavily subsidised wind and solar have another object, and it is not one that their proponents dare speak of. If delivering reliable and affordable power were the object, then no one would be talking about … Continue reading Economic Euthanasia: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Energy Poverty Everywhere

Why Adding More Wind & Solar Always Means Higher Power Prices For Everyone

Finding the numbers that establish the true and insane cost of subsidised wind and solar is like a game of hide and seek. Buried in a sea of complexity and industry mumbo-jumbo, the way power prices are set is part myth and part mystery. Myth and mystery that allows wind and solar rent-seekers to only … Continue reading Why Adding More Wind & Solar Always Means Higher Power Prices For Everyone

Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Always Deliver Punishing Power Prices

Every country that’s ‘transitioning’ to wind and solar is suffering rocketing retail power prices. No ifs. No buts. No exceptions. Australia is a sufficient example, given the delusional obsession with weather and sunshine-dependent occasional power in the land Downunder. Since July this year, Australian families and businesses have been reeling from 20-30% increases in their … Continue reading Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Always Deliver Punishing Power Prices

Transition to Insolvency: Europe’s Largest Wind Farm Facing Bankruptcy

The world’s greatest Ponzi scheme is imploding. The wind and solar scam was never going to last. Built on lies and running on subsidies the so-called wind and solar ‘industries’ are being belted from all sides. Rising costs, shrinking subsidies and hostile communities have taken the gloss from the greatest economic and environmental fraud of … Continue reading Transition to Insolvency: Europe’s Largest Wind Farm Facing Bankruptcy

Floating Circus: Offshore Wind Industry’s Floating Turbine Plan Scoops Parody Award

The more desperate rent-seekers become, the sillier they sound. The latest plan to float 800 tonne turbines at sea sounds like parody in motion. Notwithstanding that the offshore wind industry can’t make a buck in shallow waters where their turbines are firmly connected to the ocean floor - dozens of grand offshore projects have been … Continue reading Floating Circus: Offshore Wind Industry’s Floating Turbine Plan Scoops Parody Award

US Government Sued For Concealing Wind Industry’s Wholesale Whale Slaughter

Courts have a tendency to get the unvarnished truth out, such as the US government’s cover-up of wind industry’s wholesale whale slaughter. Everyone expects the wind industry to lie - it’s in its interest to do so, indeed its very existence depends upon a series of falsehoods - but governments are usually held to slightly … Continue reading US Government Sued For Concealing Wind Industry’s Wholesale Whale Slaughter
