**** Australia's Large-Scale RET is facing inevitable doom - and with it the wind industry - due to the fact that Australia's commercial retailers decided to kill it off over 3 years ago; refusing, since then, to enter Power Purchase Agreements with wind power outfits. The result has been that commercial lenders have ceased lending … Continue reading Offshore Wind Power Just as Unreliable & Twice the Insane Cost of Onshore Wind Power

How South Australia’s Wind Farm Gamble Led to a Power Crisis
**** South Australians dwell in Australia’s economically dismal ‘wind power capital’. Their attempt to rely on these things as a ‘meaningful’ power source sees them not only paying the highest power prices in the Nation by a mile (if not the world, on a purchasing power parity basis) – but sees them glaring at each … Continue reading How South Australia’s Wind Farm Gamble Led to a Power Crisis
Scots Demand an End to Government’s ‘Un-Democratic Fixation’ with Unreliable, Insecure & Unaffordable Wind Power
**** It took a little under a decade, but the message is finally getting out: THESE THINGS DON’T WORK - on any level. There are 3 electricity essentials - that the power source and its delivery to homes and businesses be: 1) reliable; 2) secure; and 3) affordable. Try to skimp on any one or … Continue reading Scots Demand an End to Government’s ‘Un-Democratic Fixation’ with Unreliable, Insecure & Unaffordable Wind Power
Environment Minister, Greg Hunt Backs Slaughter of ‘Protected’ Eagles With Taxpayer Underwritten ‘Loans’ for Wind Farms
**** The number of Liberal (Australia’s once small-government, conservative, business and family friendly) Party MPs that hold a bizarre affection for these things can be tallied up on one hand. The Liberal’s King of the Wind Worship Cult is the hapless Environment Minister, young Gregory Hunt. Hunt’s office is headed up by wind industry plant, … Continue reading Environment Minister, Greg Hunt Backs Slaughter of ‘Protected’ Eagles With Taxpayer Underwritten ‘Loans’ for Wind Farms

Today Tonight Reports on South Australia’s Wind Power Policy Disaster
**** South Australia is where the Australian wind industry meets its 'Waterloo' - which is fitting in its way: one of SA's worst public health disasters began at Waterloo in 2010 - when 37 Vesta's V90s (3MW monsters) spun into gear. From then on, the incessant turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound these things cast … Continue reading Today Tonight Reports on South Australia’s Wind Power Policy Disaster
The Cost of Wind Power: Killing Jobs and Crushing Families – SA’s Biggest Smelter Under Threat with 750 Jobs at Risk
**** To call what South Australia’s Labor government has ‘gifted’ their constituents an energy ‘policy’, is to flatter it as involving some kind of genuine ‘design’. It’s an economic debacle, pure and simple. The current mess started under former Premier, Mike Rann – a former spin-doctor, whose relatives lined up at the wind power subsidy … Continue reading The Cost of Wind Power: Killing Jobs and Crushing Families – SA’s Biggest Smelter Under Threat with 750 Jobs at Risk
AFL’s CEO – Gillon McLachlan Hammers the ‘Desecration of his Country’ & the ‘Extreme Community Division’ Caused by Wind Farms
**** To Australian Aboriginals, the term ‘Country’ is not merely a reference simpliciter to ‘land’. It’s a far broader concept that embodies eternal time, space, spirit and ancestry - an amalgam of all these things - that describes the links between Australia’s first peoples and this beautiful Country. Those links may have been shaken by … Continue reading AFL’s CEO – Gillon McLachlan Hammers the ‘Desecration of his Country’ & the ‘Extreme Community Division’ Caused by Wind Farms
Bjørn Lomborg: Wind Power ‘Tree’ Symbolises Futility of Paris Climate Jamboree
**** As a baggage train of some 40,000 climate-cultists get set to jet their way home from Paris - burning up a gazillion gallons of (what they normally rail about as being atmosphere incinerating) kerosene - the fair question has to be asked: ‘and all for what?’ The belief that China and India were going … Continue reading Bjørn Lomborg: Wind Power ‘Tree’ Symbolises Futility of Paris Climate Jamboree
What Kills the Australian Wind Industry: A $45 Billion Federal Power Tax
**** The wind industry in Australia is doomed. Australia’s commercial lending institutions know it (calling in their loans and refusing to lend for any new wind farms). The wind industry knows it – hence the big players’ frantic efforts to ditch their wind farms, cut and run – although these fire sales are as much … Continue reading What Kills the Australian Wind Industry: A $45 Billion Federal Power Tax
