Faking It: Why ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Claims Never Stack Up

Like any ideological cult, wind and solar acolytes bury troublesome facts and replace them with oodles of helpful fiction. Start with the supposed cost of the electricity occasionally generated by wind turbines and solar panels. The usual trick is to invent some model said to capture the unique benefits of running on sunshine and breezes. … Continue reading Faking It: Why ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Claims Never Stack Up

Propaganda Flip: Renewables Cult Claim They Never Said Wind & Solar Would Be Cheap

The wind and solar industries are struggling to win the hearts and minds of householders and businesses being belted by skyrocketing power prices. Built on lies and run on subsidies, it comes as no surprise that the truth about heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar would eventually work its way to the surface. … Continue reading Propaganda Flip: Renewables Cult Claim They Never Said Wind & Solar Would Be Cheap

Shredded: Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Economy-Crushing Power Prices

Subsidised wind and solar are driving power prices into orbit and whole industries into bankruptcy around the globe. Australia, is no exception. When wind and solar acolytes start talking about ‘cheap renewables’ powering a manufacturing renaissance you know you really are dealing with a deranged cult. Heading up the cult in Australia is the PM, … Continue reading Shredded: Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Economy-Crushing Power Prices

Uncontrollable Surge: Daytime Solar Output Swamps Grid & Wrecks Power Market

The chaos that’s wrecking our power supplies is what happens when engineers are replaced by ideologues. Long on cultish mantras about the ‘inevitable transition’ and the wonders of ‘free wind and solar energy’, but short on maths, physics and economics, the clowns in charge of our power supplies would have been charged with treason, not … Continue reading Uncontrollable Surge: Daytime Solar Output Swamps Grid & Wrecks Power Market

Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices

As night follows day, adding more wind and solar capacity inevitably results in rocketing power prices. The hard numbers say it all. China enjoys the world’s lowest power prices, thanks to cheap, abundant and reliable coal-fired power. Adding to their advantage, China is building dozens of new coal-fired and nuclear powered plants. It’s almost as … Continue reading Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices

Offshore Wind Industry Targets Australian Coastline For Wholesale Whale Slaughter

The ultra-high-decibel sonar emitted by wind industry survey vessels during wind farm construction deafens marine mammals, so does piledriving: the repetitive, percussive pounding of the columns that support the turbines (see above); the piles are 8m in diameter and over 100m long – 30-60m of which gets punched into the seabed. The offshore wind industry … Continue reading Offshore Wind Industry Targets Australian Coastline For Wholesale Whale Slaughter

Zombie Apocalypse: Wind Industry Faces Total Collapse With More Projects Scrapped

The wind industry is looking a lot like a zombie apocalypse; evidently dead on its feet, but refusing to accept its mortality and die with dignity. The offshore wind industry in the US looks like a bloodbath, with dozens of major projects scrapped outright. Investors have pulled the plug, never to return. In Australia dozens … Continue reading Zombie Apocalypse: Wind Industry Faces Total Collapse With More Projects Scrapped

Loser Always Pays Staggering Hidden Cost of Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

Crony capitalists wallowing in wind and solar subsidies and their ideologue enablers make sure the buck always stops with you. The cost of those subsidies is not only endless, it is simply staggering. In Australia the combined figure for subsidies to wind and solar is now in excess of $15 billion annually, and with the … Continue reading Loser Always Pays Staggering Hidden Cost of Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

Farmers Uninsurable Risk: Solar Factory Neighbours Face Total Financial Ruin

Farmers have no hope of insuring their properties to cover damage caused to neighbouring solar factories. Public liability cover in property insurance contracts ordinarily caps out at around $20 million in Australia. As with any type of insurance, the greater the cover, the greater the premium. Although, there are certain risks that no insurer will … Continue reading Farmers Uninsurable Risk: Solar Factory Neighbours Face Total Financial Ruin

Unaffordable & Unreliable Electricity Inevitable Result of Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

Access to reliable and affordable power is just another thing Westerners have taken for granted, for far too long. A band of weather-obsessed ideologues have set about methodically destroying our once perfectly affordable and thoroughly reliable power supplies, by propounding the delusional notion that wind and solar can replace that well-designed system which has powered … Continue reading Unaffordable & Unreliable Electricity Inevitable Result of Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
