The total collapse in wind and solar output during the big freezes that first struck Germany and then America provides a wake-up call for any policymaker still promoting that dangerously unreliable pair. Indeed, any politician or policy wonk still pushing wind and solar as meaningful power sources is likely to be welcomed to a facility … Continue reading American & German Renewables Disasters Drive Demand for Ever-Reliable Nuclear Power

Net Loser: Subsidised Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Destroy More Jobs Than They Ever Create
Calling wind and solar ‘industries’ is sloppy; any operation that can’t survive without massive and perpetual subsidies isn’t really an ‘industry’, at all. Industry connotes effort, output and production. Whereas the wind and solar scam involves destruction on all fronts: environmental, social and economic. The myth about so-called ‘green’ energy jobs, is just that. South … Continue reading Net Loser: Subsidised Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Destroy More Jobs Than They Ever Create
Power Battle: Common Sense Abandoned With Push For More Intermittent Wind & Solar
Our good friends’ logic and reason were sacrificed long ago by the High Priests of the wind and solar cult. Attempt to point out the inevitable effect of sunset on solar output and/or calm weather on wind power output and you’ll be branded ‘heretic’, before you know it. You’ll be sent off to an education … Continue reading Power Battle: Common Sense Abandoned With Push For More Intermittent Wind & Solar
It’s Subsidised Wind & Solar or Meaningful Well-Paid Jobs: But You Can’t Have Both
Australian power prices went through the roof as a result of its obsession with chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar (see above). The relationship is so stark, why even a blind man, open to reality, will readily see it. However, no amount of evidence appears to register with those who pretend to govern … Continue reading It’s Subsidised Wind & Solar or Meaningful Well-Paid Jobs: But You Can’t Have Both
Wrecking Ball: Australia’s Fixation With Subsidised Renewables Guarantees Economic Disaster
If the object was wrecking every last manufacturing, mineral processing and mining job, then Australia’s renewable energy policy has delivered on time and under budget. Starting in 2001 with John Howard’s Renewable Energy Target (massively expanded by Kevin Rudd in 2009), the subsidies being squandered on intermittent wind and solar are now in the order … Continue reading Wrecking Ball: Australia’s Fixation With Subsidised Renewables Guarantees Economic Disaster
Technology Tease: On The Cruel Promise of a Renewables/Hydrogen Fuelled Future
The wind and solar industries were built on lies, run on myth and are fuelled by subsidies, so the only way forward is more of the very same. It took politicians and punters around a decade to cotton on to the hopeless unreliability and chaotic intermittency of solar and wind power. Which required an … Continue reading Technology Tease: On The Cruel Promise of a Renewables/Hydrogen Fuelled Future
How to Destroy Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies: Just Add Subsidised Wind & Solar
Australians once enjoyed the cheapest and most reliable power in the world; now they suffer the world’s highest prices and they’re lucky to get power, at all. Throwing billions at weather-dependent wind and sunshine dependent solar has had the inevitable consequence of destroying both the reliability and affordability electricity, in a country blessed with vast … Continue reading How to Destroy Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies: Just Add Subsidised Wind & Solar
Hidden Cost of Solar: Sunset Delivers Power Price Surge As Governments Dictate Household Power Use
Hereafter, the lights will go on during the day and off after sunset. In the ‘even the Soviets couldn't have dreamt this up’ category sits a plan to force households to use power when they simply do not need it. Backed by the Federal government’s Small Scale Renewable Energy Scheme - which delivers taxpayer funded … Continue reading Hidden Cost of Solar: Sunset Delivers Power Price Surge As Governments Dictate Household Power Use
No Contest: Never Reliable Wind & Solar Can’t Compete with Ever Reliable Coal-Fired Power
Renewables acolytes have been massaging the numbers for years, in an attempt to show that wind and solar power are the cheapest of all. The standard bag of tricks includes ignoring the capital cost of having every single (unreliable) megawatt of wind or solar constantly backed up by another (reliable) megawatt of coal, gas, nuclear … Continue reading No Contest: Never Reliable Wind & Solar Can’t Compete with Ever Reliable Coal-Fired Power
China Crisis: Beijing’s Ban On Australian Coal Leaves Millions Freezing In The Dark
Millions of Chinese are learning just how important coal-fired power is to their health, safety and comfort, thanks to Beijing’s ban on Australian coal imports. High-quality Australian coal has helped fuel China’s miraculous industrial growth over the last generation. But the escalation of a trade spat between the PRC and the Morrison led Federal Government … Continue reading China Crisis: Beijing’s Ban On Australian Coal Leaves Millions Freezing In The Dark
