It takes a special brand of delusion to believe that we’ll all soon be powered entirely by sunshine and breezes. These days, those peddling that myth are guaranteed to be in on the greatest government-backed rort in history. Fantastic stories continue to appear about our imminent transition to a world that runs entirely on 100% … Continue reading Fantastic Nonsense: Claims About All Wind & Solar Powered Future Completely Implausible

Australia’s Monumental Wind & Solar Fail: Soaring Power Prices Just the Beginning
Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity is down to an obsession with heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar. With a Shorten led Labor/Green Alliance odds-on to win Federal Government this May, the disaster that is South Australia threatens to break the border and infect every other state in the Commonwealth: Shorten is pushing … Continue reading Australia’s Monumental Wind & Solar Fail: Soaring Power Prices Just the Beginning
Wind Power Chaos: There When You Don’t Need It – Never There When You Do
It’s no news to sailors, that the wind is never there when you need it and often there when you don’t. Coal-fired steamships took the guesswork out of Maritime navigation, ensuring passengers and cargo arrived safely, promptly and on schedule. Bucking the trend set by the Industrial Revolution, Australia’s wind power capital, South Australia … Continue reading Wind Power Chaos: There When You Don’t Need It – Never There When You Do
Want Rocketing Power Prices? Just Add Intermittent Wind & Solar – South Australia Did
There’s something uncanny about the relationship between rocketing power prices and renewable energy: ask a German, Dane or South Australian. Despite some recent propaganda efforts suggesting that South Australians are currently enjoying 1970s power prices, Australia’s renewable energy capital still pays the world’s highest power prices – thanks to its ludicrous 50% Renewable Energy Target. The subsidies … Continue reading Want Rocketing Power Prices? Just Add Intermittent Wind & Solar – South Australia Did
Delusional NSW Energy Minister Claims Wind & Solar More Reliable Than Coal & Gas
Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity is down to greedy renewable energy rent seekers aided and abetted by pliant and gullible politicians. And, on the latter score, there’s none more so than the NSW Energy Minister, Don Harwin. Harwin, a sanctimonious windbag, is part of a small and insidious clique of Liberal politicians and lobbyists … Continue reading Delusional NSW Energy Minister Claims Wind & Solar More Reliable Than Coal & Gas
No Contest: Wind Power Can’t Compete With Coal-Fired Power On Cost, Or At All
The well-chewed ‘chestnut, about wind power being cheaper than coal or gas-fired power is a nonsense. Then there's the fiction that wind power is actually ‘competing’ with conventional generation sources. ‘Competition’, in the wind industry’s eyes, is a pretty fluid concept: for most of life’s endeavours, it means a head-to-head race between all competitors, starting at … Continue reading No Contest: Wind Power Can’t Compete With Coal-Fired Power On Cost, Or At All

Sky’s The Limit: Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ South Australians Hit With (Another) 22% Price Hike
Attempting to rely on intermittent wind and solar is guaranteed to send power prices into orbit. Just ask a South Australian. Despite some desperate wind industry propaganda efforts suggesting that South Australians are currently enjoying 1970s power prices, Australia’s renewable energy capital still pays the world’s highest power prices – thanks to its ludicrous 50% Renewable Energy … Continue reading Sky’s The Limit: Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ South Australians Hit With (Another) 22% Price Hike
Scoundrel’s Paradise: Subsidised Wind & Solar The Greatest Scam on Earth
The only way of explaining the push for subsidised wind and solar is money. And when we say money, we mean hundreds of billions of dollars of other people’s money. In Australia alone, the Federal Government’s Large-Scale Renewable Energy Target will redirect over $60 billion in subsidies to wind and large-scale solar operators (all … Continue reading Scoundrel’s Paradise: Subsidised Wind & Solar The Greatest Scam on Earth
Total Flop: After 30 Years & Massive Subsidies, Wind & Solar Satisfies 1.1% of Global Energy Demand
The idea that one day soon we’ll all be powered by sunshine and breezes is infantile nonsense. No modern economy has ever powered itself entirely with wind and solar power. Still, we’re continually berated with the notion that our ‘transition’ to all wind and sun powered future is ‘inevitable’. Step back for a moment and … Continue reading Total Flop: After 30 Years & Massive Subsidies, Wind & Solar Satisfies 1.1% of Global Energy Demand
