Last Man Standing: China Defies Biden’s Climate Crusade Against Coal-Fired Power

The CCP won’t let America’s climate industrial complex interfere with its economic ambitions, key to which is its burgeoning supply of reliable and affordable coal-fired power. Whereas Australia’s suicidal renewable energy obsession has destroyed this country’s competitive advantage, the only interest China has in wind turbines and solar panels is making them and flogging them … Continue reading Last Man Standing: China Defies Biden’s Climate Crusade Against Coal-Fired Power

Punishing Price of ‘Virtue’ Signalling: Canberra Power Price Surge Follows 100% RE Push

  When George Orwell described ‘doublethink’ and ‘doublespeak’ he surely had the renewable energy zealot in mind. In the Nation’s capital, Canberra the swamp is lined with renewable energy rent seekers - always on the prowl for more and more extensive subsidies, soft loans and favourable treatment from the Federal government - and populated by … Continue reading Punishing Price of ‘Virtue’ Signalling: Canberra Power Price Surge Follows 100% RE Push

Beyond Help: Power Rationing New Normal in Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ South Australia

South Australians know an awful lot about sweating in the dark and, thanks to their fixation on wind and solar power, its hapless proletariat will get to learn a whole lot more. Renowned by the renewable cult as Australia’s ‘wind and solar capital’, SA suffers Australia’s highest power prices and, quite naturally, Australia’s highest rate … Continue reading Beyond Help: Power Rationing New Normal in Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ South Australia

Busting The Renewable Energy ‘Storage’ Myth: It’s All About The Numbers (And The Weather)

Promoters reckon the hopeless intermittency of wind and solar can cured by “storing” it - using insanely expensive lithium batteries or pumped hydro or something vaguely resembling a perpetual motion machine. None of the charlatans pushing the grid-scale storage of electricity generated by subsidised wind and solar have apparently cottoned on to the laws of … Continue reading Busting The Renewable Energy ‘Storage’ Myth: It’s All About The Numbers (And The Weather)

It’s Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power That’s Powering Australia & Will Be For Years to Come

Another burst of calm weather has proved the point: anyone who believes wind power is a meaningful power source, is delusional. The wind and solar cult keep telling us that we’re a heartbeat away from an all wind and sun powered future. The same crowd also claims that coal-fired power is dead as the dodo. … Continue reading It’s Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power That’s Powering Australia & Will Be For Years to Come

Renewable Energy Targets: Unaffordable & Unreliable Power Threatens Every Mineral Processing Job

The apparent object of renewable energy targets is to make power so expensive and unreliable that eventually no one will bother to use it. At least that’s what occurred in Australia, thanks to its Federal government’s Renewable Energy Target, which will redirect more than $60 billion to chaotically intermittent wind and solar over the life … Continue reading Renewable Energy Targets: Unaffordable & Unreliable Power Threatens Every Mineral Processing Job

Suicide Pact: Subsidised Wind & Solar Designed to Wreck First World Economies

One of China’s principal strengths is its ability to harness cheap and reliable nuclear and coal-fired power. Contrast that with Australia’s energy policies deliberately hostile to coal and nuclear power, and it’s hard not to conclude that our political betters are in cahoots with the CCP. The Roman Empire didn’t collapse because the barbarians to … Continue reading Suicide Pact: Subsidised Wind & Solar Designed to Wreck First World Economies

Scam Alert: Hydrogen Hoax – The Next Great ‘Renewable’ Energy Fraud

Wind and solar power’s hopeless intermittency has forced rent seekers to engineer yet another fraud: hydrogen gas - which is to be purportedly produced using wind and solar’s occasional and chaotic output. Where wind and solar have never made any sense, the hydrogen proposition is completely bonkers. Defying the laws of physics and thermodynamics - … Continue reading Scam Alert: Hydrogen Hoax – The Next Great ‘Renewable’ Energy Fraud

‘Inevitable Transition’: Get Ready For the Insane Cost of Attempting to Rely on Wind & Solar

Want rocketing power prices and an unreliable supply? Then, subsidised wind and solar is just made for you. The very point of subsidies to wind and solar is to knock reliable, dispatchable generation sources, out of the game. In wind and solar obsessed South Australia, that’s already occurred, with a vengeance: it blew up its … Continue reading ‘Inevitable Transition’: Get Ready For the Insane Cost of Attempting to Rely on Wind & Solar

Let’s Get Serious: Net-Zero CO2 Emissions Means 100% Nuclear Power

Left to weather obsessed lunatics, we’d all be left sitting freezing or boiling in the dark. And were not talking about the pasty-faced ghouls who glue themselves to roads. No, the people who can do the most damage are those with real skin in the game. The latest wheeze is the push for eliminating carbon … Continue reading Let’s Get Serious: Net-Zero CO2 Emissions Means 100% Nuclear Power
