On 28 September 2016, the automatic shutdown of wind turbines in South Australia during a spring storm delivered a statewide ‘system black’. South Australia’s hapless Premier, Jay Weatherill led the wind industry’s propaganda charge, pointing the finger at the collapse of a couple of power pylons in the state’s mid-North as the cause of a … Continue reading Peanuts to Pay For Total Chaos: Wind Power Outfit Fined $1 Million For Causing Statewide Blackout

Nuclear Power: The Long-Term Solution to Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Calamity
Thanks to an obsession with intermittent wind and solar, Australians face another summer of planned power rationing (aka ‘load shedding’) and the unplanned kind (aka ‘mass blackouts’). Cue the first long, hot spell in January, when power demand spikes as ACs get cranked into action to cool homes and businesses and refrigerated systems have to … Continue reading Nuclear Power: The Long-Term Solution to Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Calamity
Familiar Territory: Chief Minister Busted Lying About Staggering Cost of Renewable Energy Roadmap
Shamelessly promoting unreliable renewable energy is one thing, but barefaced lying about its cost, is quite another. Wherever wind and solar make up any significant proportion of a power supply, retail power prices soon rocket. Rising power prices are the guaranteed consequence of duplicating capital costs; additional system costs - including the greater need … Continue reading Familiar Territory: Chief Minister Busted Lying About Staggering Cost of Renewable Energy Roadmap
Massive & Endless Subsidies Destroy Claim That Wind & Solar Cheapest Of All
In the ‘pigs might fly category’ sits the claim that intermittent wind and solar are the cheapest power sources, amongst all contenders. Were there even a shred of truth to that story, then renewable energy rent seekers wouldn’t be hounding policymakers at every turn to ensure that the massive subsidies they currently enjoy be guaranteed … Continue reading Massive & Endless Subsidies Destroy Claim That Wind & Solar Cheapest Of All
Wind & Solar Scam Always and Everywhere About Massive & Endless Subsidies
Wind and solar don’t run on sunshine and breezes, they’re powered by massive and endless subsidies. Remove the subsidies and both so-called ‘industries’ would disappear in a heartbeat. The perpetual claims about wind and solar competing with dispatchable generation sources, such as coal, gas and nuclear, ring hollow when talk turns to reducing the … Continue reading Wind & Solar Scam Always and Everywhere About Massive & Endless Subsidies
Peak Stupid: Bizarre Plan to Carpet Australian Desert With Thousands of Wind Turbines & Solar Panels
In more proof that 2020 was the year that we reached ‘peak stupid’, renewable energy rent seekers have topped them all with a plan to convert chaotically intermittent wind and solar into hydrogen, then to convert that into ammonia for shipping, and then back into hydrogen for use in a market that doesn’t exist. You … Continue reading Peak Stupid: Bizarre Plan to Carpet Australian Desert With Thousands of Wind Turbines & Solar Panels
New World Disorder: Climate Cult Bully Boys Holding Australian Business to Ransom
Apparently, worshipping wind turbines and solar panels isn’t enough for the climate cult, which increasingly asserts its perverse influence in all manner of commercial dealings. Berating banks on where their funds should be directed - heaven forbid any financier considers ever bankrolling mining, especially coal, oil or gas; and naming and shaming any enterprise that … Continue reading New World Disorder: Climate Cult Bully Boys Holding Australian Business to Ransom
Society Wreckers: Renewable Energy Cult Determined to Destroy Industry Wealth & Jobs
Crawling out of a post Covid economic wasteland, requires getting industry and business back on their feet, which in turn requires reliable and affordable electricity, delivered whatever the weather. But that approach would require tapping into our good friends, logic and reason. In the Australian state of New South Wales, logic was tortured to death … Continue reading Society Wreckers: Renewable Energy Cult Determined to Destroy Industry Wealth & Jobs
Labor’s Power Brawl: ALP’s Hard-Green Left Destroying Workers’ Party With Wind & Solar Obsession
Australia’s Labor Party was started in 1891 by QLD sheepshearers on strike, fighting for better wages and conditions; over a Century it became the party of ideas. Nowadays, it is unrecognizable, on either score. A hard-green left intelligentsia hijacked the party, long ago; pushing nonsensical CO2 emissions and renewable energy targets, and an anti-mining … Continue reading Labor’s Power Brawl: ALP’s Hard-Green Left Destroying Workers’ Party With Wind & Solar Obsession
