Over the last few months, the output from Australia’s wind power fleet has not only been erratic, it’s been utterly pathetic. Any other enterprise that delivered its goods on such a haphazard, sporadic and chaotic basis would be laughed out of town. But not the wind industry. No, instead, its inherent unreliability is being rewarded … Continue reading Hopeless Joke: Australia’s Wind Industry Keeps On Failing to Deliver the Goods

Power Brawl: Labor Backbenchers Revolt Over Ludicrous Wind & Solar Energy Targets
Having lost the un-loseable election in May last year, an angry rump of Labor backbenchers is keen to ditch the party’s suicidal renewable energy policies, with a view to recovering the ground they lost trying to win the sandalista vote in the inner city goat’s cheese circle. Australia’s economic future depends, in no small part, … Continue reading Power Brawl: Labor Backbenchers Revolt Over Ludicrous Wind & Solar Energy Targets
Helplessly Hopeless: Australia’s Wind Industry Promises Big, But Never Delivers
It takes audacity to call yourself an ‘industry’ when you can’t say when you’ll deliver your product and its only ever delivered 30% of the time, at best. But that’s the business model upon which our wonderful wind powered future is predicated. Australia’s wind ‘industry’ is literally suffering a case of the doldrums, with its … Continue reading Helplessly Hopeless: Australia’s Wind Industry Promises Big, But Never Delivers
Dead Calm: Australia’s Wind ‘Industry’ Suffering From Prolonged Wind ‘Drought’
Australia’s wind industry has been suffering from the Big Calm - with dozens of occasions over the last month or so when the entire wind fleet’s battled to deliver more than a tiny fraction of its combined capacity. Depicted above – courtesy of Aneroid Energy – is the output delivered by Australian wind power outfits to … Continue reading Dead Calm: Australia’s Wind ‘Industry’ Suffering From Prolonged Wind ‘Drought’
RE Reckoning: Solar Powered Households Forced to Pay For The Grid Chaos They Cause
Australia’s obscenely generous subsidies and Feed-in-Tariffs for domestic solar resulted in millions of households blanketed in panels. The consequences for the power grid have been diabolical; its management is now a daily nightmare. Western Australia’s fixation with heavily subsidised solar power is threatening to destroy its once wholly reliable electricity grid, thanks to its sporadic and … Continue reading RE Reckoning: Solar Powered Households Forced to Pay For The Grid Chaos They Cause
Cancel Culture: Michael Shellenberger Censored For Exposing Climate Industrial Complex
The media’s obsession with cataclysmic climate change is matched only by their fixation on unreliable wind and solar power as the only solution. That narrative has been tortured for more than 20 years, now. But even among their own ilk, the “only more subsidies for wind turbines and solar panels will save us” narrative has … Continue reading Cancel Culture: Michael Shellenberger Censored For Exposing Climate Industrial Complex
Making Money From Power: How Virtue Signalling Corporations Profit From Unreliable Wind & Solar
Ignore the voluble pomposity and faux moral piety, the sole motivation driving the all wind & solar crowd is money. Lots and lots of other people’s money. And forget about saving the planet, this is about making a group of cynical, conniving and audacious rent-seekers fabulously, indeed filthy, rich. In what is the greatest, state-sanctioned … Continue reading Making Money From Power: How Virtue Signalling Corporations Profit From Unreliable Wind & Solar
Wrecking Ball: Crippling Cost of Australia’s Obsession With Subsidised & Unreliable Wind & Solar
Australians are experiencing their first recession in nearly 30 years; its ruinous renewable energy policies are only adding insult to injury. Australia’s energy market is a shambles - thanks to the $60 billion squandered on intermittent wind and solar, it was already in the midst of a power pricing and supply calamity, with disastrous consequences … Continue reading Wrecking Ball: Crippling Cost of Australia’s Obsession With Subsidised & Unreliable Wind & Solar
Michael Shellenberger: Sorry, But I Cried Wolf on Climate Change
If climate change is a problem, then wind turbines and solar panels aren’t a solution: heavily subsidised and unreliable wind and solar are an economic and environmental disaster. When climate alarmists managed to hijack energy (and with it economic) policy it was a case of lunatics taking over the asylum. In every breath they exhort … Continue reading Michael Shellenberger: Sorry, But I Cried Wolf on Climate Change
New Soviet Era: Australian Businesses Paid to Shut Down When Wind & Solar Output Drops
To call Australia’s energy debacle a ‘crisis’ is mastery in understatement: its obsession with wind and solar means its economy now operates around the vagaries of mother nature. The availability of sunshine and suitably beneficial breezes dictates when and where electricity gets delivered to power consumers. The cause of Australia's power pricing and supply calamity … Continue reading New Soviet Era: Australian Businesses Paid to Shut Down When Wind & Solar Output Drops
