The twisted logic of the wind and solar ‘transition’ means the only way of preventing blackouts is to force users to stop using electricity. Australia’s Federal government is paying energy-hungry businesses (using taxpayer’s money, obviously) to stop producing whatever it is that they produce so they do not use electricity. Because that’s the only way … Continue reading Power Demand Management Result of Power Supply Mismanagement

So-called 'green' energy is struggling with a monumental image problem: the toxic waste being dumped in landfills around the world. Millions of solar panels have already reached their use-by dates; they can’t be recycled, which means they’re destined for the local dump - in mind-boggling quantities. Then there's the threat to health that concentrated dumping … Continue reading 200 Million Tonnes of Toxic Solar Panels Destined For Landfills Near You
Fraction Too Much Fiction: Scorching The “Wind & Solar Are Cheap” Myth
‘Wind and solar power are cheap and reliable’, ‘war is peace’, ‘freedom is slavery’ or so the Ministry of Truth would have you believe. Perverting the meaning of language is all in a day’s work for the rent-seeking crowd that sit behind wind and solar outfits - ably assisted by a crowd of deranged zealots … Continue reading Fraction Too Much Fiction: Scorching The “Wind & Solar Are Cheap” Myth
‘Progressive’ Power Policy: Ever-Increasing Prices & Ever-Decreasing Reliability
If your idea of progress means never having power when you need it most, and never being able to afford it when you do get it, then the grand wind and solar transition is for you. Guaranteed to deliver a power pricing and supply calamity, every time, heavily subsidised wind and solar are said to … Continue reading ‘Progressive’ Power Policy: Ever-Increasing Prices & Ever-Decreasing Reliability
It’s The Weather, Stupid: When The Wind Won’t Blow, The Power Don’t Flow
The wind industry and its acolytes are none too happy with the weather, because when the wind don’t blow, the power just don’t flow. At a loss to brush away the inherent chaos involved with wind power delivery, these characters are left to curse what they call ‘wind droughts’, as if the weather was something … Continue reading It’s The Weather, Stupid: When The Wind Won’t Blow, The Power Don’t Flow
Radar Off-line: How Offshore Wind Turbines Have Wrecked America’s Defence Capability
Giant industrial wind turbines 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 for pilots dependent upon accurate weather reports, and air-traffic guidance, both essential for safe takeoffs and landings. In a number of States, the US military … Continue reading Radar Off-line: How Offshore Wind Turbines Have Wrecked America’s Defence Capability
No Substitute: Poverty Reduction Depends On Access To Energy Rich Coal, Oil & Gas
The first step out of grinding poverty starts with access to energy-rich hydrocarbons: ie coal, oil and gas. Third World governments are continually berated by opportunistic globalists who claim to be saving the planet by forcing them to take up insanely expensive and thoroughly unreliable wind and solar. Some are duped, sure enough. But it … Continue reading No Substitute: Poverty Reduction Depends On Access To Energy Rich Coal, Oil & Gas
Solar Power Outfit Hit With $135m in Fines & Damages For Polluting Neighbour’s Land
The wind and solar ‘industries’ always struggle with their neighbours, principally because they treat them as ‘roadkill’. But that model doesn’t work when those neighbours are determined to fight back, using every legal means available. Such is the case with Shaun and Amie Harris, who took a solar power outfit to court seeking damages for … Continue reading Solar Power Outfit Hit With $135m in Fines & Damages For Polluting Neighbour’s Land
Pyrotechnic Pandemonium: Wind Turbines Can’t Help Exploding In Toxic Fireballs
Wind turbines love exploding into toxic fireballs that firefighters don’t even bother putting out. It’s a case of burn, baby burn when these things self-immolate. The staggering rise in the number of turbine fires and total turbine collapses has caused insurers to ramp up the premiums they require to insure them. Understandably, neighbours are getting … Continue reading Pyrotechnic Pandemonium: Wind Turbines Can’t Help Exploding In Toxic Fireballs
Crash Test Dummies: Wind Turbine Maker Siemens Suffers Massive Share Price Slump
The world’s wind turbine makers are bleeding cash; none of them are capable of turning a profit and all of them are facing financial ruin. General Electric’s renewables business blew a cool $2.2bn of shareholder value in 2022. Siemens Gamesa has axed hundreds of jobs in Europe and America. Vestas, Nordex and Enercon are also … Continue reading Crash Test Dummies: Wind Turbine Maker Siemens Suffers Massive Share Price Slump
