The wind industry is what it is thanks to naïve, gullible and pliant politicians. But not every MP drank the Kool-Aid. One who didn’t is SA Best Member of the Legislative Council, Connie Bonaros. South Australia is the place that set and met its very own ludicrous 50% Renewable Energy Target. For that it … Continue reading MP Demands Wind Farm Moratorium: Rigged & Pointless Noise Rules ‘Rotten to the Core’

Volt Wars: Why Your Neighbour’s Solar Panels Are Cooking Your Computer & Blowing Your Lightglobes, Etc
Electricity generation started off as an extension of science. These days, it’s all about vanity and virtue signalling.

Shorten’s Stranglehold: Labor’s 50% RET & ‘Carbon’ Tax Threatens Economic Annihilation
The prospect of a Shorten lead Labor government brings with it a 50% RET and a 45% emissions reduction target (an enormous ‘carbon’ tax by any other name). The consequence will be spiralling power prices and Soviet-era power rationing, whenever the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. As every South Australian knows, attempting to … Continue reading Shorten’s Stranglehold: Labor’s 50% RET & ‘Carbon’ Tax Threatens Economic Annihilation
Labor’s Renewables Insanity Hits New High With Bill Shorten’s Million Battery Brain Fart
Despite the hype from RE zealots, the chaotic and occasional delivery of wind and solar won’t be cured with batteries, large or small. Sure, at a technical level, it is possible to store large volumes of electricity for a period, such that it might be released when power consumers need it. However, were such … Continue reading Labor’s Renewables Insanity Hits New High With Bill Shorten’s Million Battery Brain Fart
Wind Turbines the Perfect Bushfire Starters: Fire & Fury Coming Soon to Your Backyard
As Australians brace for a searing summer, spare a thought for communities riddled with wind turbines: the perfect incendiary device.

RET Regrets: Nothing to Show for Wind & Solar Surge Except Rocketing Prices & Supply Chaos
Thanks to an obsession with wind and solar Australians now pay retail power prices among the highest in the world. The wind and solar capital, South Australia suffers the highest, bar none. The reasons it got that way are hardly a mystery. Dr Michael Crawford’s graphic should help the uninitiated.

Dark Ages Deliverance: Australia’s Energy Minister Contracts Coal-Fired Power to Avoid More Mass Blackouts
Intermittent wind and solar guarantee power supply chaos and are a recipe for mass load shedding and blackouts: ask South Australians. While the Federal Energy Minister, Angus Taylor’s public focus has been on reducing power prices, in reality his ‘mission-critical’ is ensuring that there is enough reliable electricity generating capacity in the system to prevent … Continue reading Dark Ages Deliverance: Australia’s Energy Minister Contracts Coal-Fired Power to Avoid More Mass Blackouts
Australia’s Power Crisis Crossroads: Energy Minister Battles to Keep the Lights On
Dubbed the “Minister for reducing electricity prices”, Angus Taylor’s biggest battle will be keeping the lights on this summer, and beyond. When Taylor took up the role of Federal Energy Minister in September, he inherited a toxic cocktail of renewable energy policies - the product of both Federal and State governments. The Mother of them … Continue reading Australia’s Power Crisis Crossroads: Energy Minister Battles to Keep the Lights On

Renewables Rejected: 80% of Australian Households Want Reliable & Affordable Power
For Australian households and businesses being crushed by out-of-control power prices the Paris Climate Agreement is a maniac’s suicide note. With nothing else to justify the $60 billion being thrown in subsidies at chaotically intermittent wind and solar, renewable energy rent seekers are clinging to the notion that the deal done in the City of Light will … Continue reading Renewables Rejected: 80% of Australian Households Want Reliable & Affordable Power
