Once upon a time, the object was delivering power to everyone, everywhere, all the time. Not anymore. Chaotically delivered and heavily subsidised wind and solar have another object, and it is not one that their proponents dare speak of. If delivering reliable and affordable power were the object, then no one would be talking about … Continue reading Economic Euthanasia: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Energy Poverty Everywhere

Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Always Deliver Punishing Power Prices
Every country that’s ‘transitioning’ to wind and solar is suffering rocketing retail power prices. No ifs. No buts. No exceptions. Australia is a sufficient example, given the delusional obsession with weather and sunshine-dependent occasional power in the land Downunder. Since July this year, Australian families and businesses have been reeling from 20-30% increases in their … Continue reading Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Always Deliver Punishing Power Prices
Adults Only: Intellectual Infants Reject Safe & Reliable Nuclear Power Generation
Safe, reliable and affordable, nuclear power ticks all the boxes, including being the only stand-alone power generation source that can satisfy those fretting about human-generated carbon dioxide gas, by not generating any during the generating process. As the rest of the world crab walk away from their subsidised wind and solar catastrophes, embracing nuclear power … Continue reading Adults Only: Intellectual Infants Reject Safe & Reliable Nuclear Power Generation
Farmers Fightback: Primary Producers Revolt Against Mass Industrial Wind & Solar Rollout
The wind cult’s proponents never face the prospect of being surrounded by hundreds of 250m high whirling wonders, slicing and dicing birds and wrecking the ability of neighbours to sleep in their own homes and wrecking the environment, more generally. No, all that pointless misery and suffering, that’s for the other guy. The virtue signalling … Continue reading Farmers Fightback: Primary Producers Revolt Against Mass Industrial Wind & Solar Rollout
Voters Reject Net-Zero Madness: Wind & Solar Transition Faces Serious Opposition
Given the choice, power consumers would have rejected the wind and solar transition and the net-zero CO2 madness that underpins it, from the outset. At the heart of their new-found and growing hostility is the question of who benefits? And who pays? Having been repeatedly pounded with off-the-charts electricity bills, the great unwashed are starting … Continue reading Voters Reject Net-Zero Madness: Wind & Solar Transition Faces Serious Opposition
Why Wind & Solar Are Wrecking Our Economic Prosperity & National Security
Dilute, diffuse, intermittent and unreliable, wind and solar make no sense. They will never constitute meaningful power generation sources. They were only designed as subsidy generation sources. As governments pull the plug on subsidies, wind power outfits and turbine makers are pulling the plug on their projects and production. Siemens Energy is losing cash like … Continue reading Why Wind & Solar Are Wrecking Our Economic Prosperity & National Security
Rent-Seekers Retreat: Grand Wind & Solar Transition Faces Total Collapse
The smart money is banking on the wind and solar industries’ total collapse; the smartest money was never invested in the greatest Ponzi scheme of all time. With subsidised wind and solar looking more like a house of cards, dozens of grand standing projects are being unceremoniously dumped. The potential investors targeted by their proponents … Continue reading Rent-Seekers Retreat: Grand Wind & Solar Transition Faces Total Collapse
Scorched Earth: Subsidised Wind & Solar Wreaking Economic Havoc Everywhere
Keep cranking up power prices and watch your economy slowly disappear. Subsidised wind and solar guarantee the former and the latter simply follows. Every country that has tapped into the so-called wind and solar transition is suffering from power prices that are simply out of this world. Australia is a case in point. Having just … Continue reading Scorched Earth: Subsidised Wind & Solar Wreaking Economic Havoc Everywhere
Highway Robbery: How Wind & Solar Subsidies Drive Power Prices Out of This World
Every country that’s tapped into subsidised wind and solar is suffering rocketing power prices. No ifs, no buts, no exceptions. The cost of the subsidies, both explicit and implicit, constitute a substantial part of the staggering and increasing power bills that households and businesses are being smashed with. Australia is a prime example. Just over … Continue reading Highway Robbery: How Wind & Solar Subsidies Drive Power Prices Out of This World
Mega-Pumped Hydro Project Becomes Total Economic & Environmental Disaster
Touted as the saviour for subsidised wind and solar, pumped hydro turns out to be a whole lot harder in practice. The Snowy 2.0 plan (see above) never stacked up economically – see our posts here and here – and never will. One of the tunnel boring machines (TBMs) critical to the project, Florence had barely struck … Continue reading Mega-Pumped Hydro Project Becomes Total Economic & Environmental Disaster
