It takes a special kind of malice to deny the suffering of people like Melissa Ware, totally unnecessary suffering caused by wind turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound. Melissa is just one of Pacific Hydro’s numerous tragic victims at Cape Bridgewater, Victoria – where the Labor/Union backed outfit – run by former union heavy … Continue reading Melissa Ware – Wind Industry Victim on the Malice & Cruelty of Pacific Hydro & Others

True & Staggering Cost of Intermittent & Unreliable Wind Power – Unplugged
The total cost of attempting to incorporate intermittent, unreliable and chaotic wind power into a grid designed around stable, controllable, dispatchable power generation is utterly staggering. In those places attempting to run on sunshine and breezes, grid managers are forced to regularly intervene, compelling the owners of conventional fossil-fuelled generation plant (coal and gas) to … Continue reading True & Staggering Cost of Intermittent & Unreliable Wind Power – Unplugged
Risible Renewables: 30 Years and $Trillions in Subsidies – Wind & Solar’s Total Output Less than 1% of World Energy Demand
A decade from now, as grids collapse and businesses and households are driven into penury, because they can no longer afford their rocketing power bills, the current generation will have plenty of time to lament (albeit, sitting freezing or boiling in the dark). South Australians, with a deluded and dangerous Labor Premier, utterly obsessed with … Continue reading Risible Renewables: 30 Years and $Trillions in Subsidies – Wind & Solar’s Total Output Less than 1% of World Energy Demand
Ian Plimer: How Australia’s Renewables Obsession Destroyed its Reliable & Cheap Power Supply
Australia’s suicidal renewable energy policies have all but destroyed what was once an energy superpower. Rocketing power prices and a grid on the brink of collapse are the consequence of an obsessive desire to run an entire country on sunshine and breezes. Lunacy doesn’t cover it. How we got there and what it means to … Continue reading Ian Plimer: How Australia’s Renewables Obsession Destroyed its Reliable & Cheap Power Supply
Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity Proves Promise of Cheap Renewable Power a Cruel Hoax
Chasing the dream of cheap and reliable ‘clean/green’ wind and solar power has turned out more like an LSD-fuelled Unicorn hunt. Any idiot can make a promise, but delivering is altogether another matter. The wind industry and its few remaining champions keep telling us that, one day soon, magical forces will align and power prices … Continue reading Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity Proves Promise of Cheap Renewable Power a Cruel Hoax
Wind Industry Salvage Mission: Turnbull Government Set to Squander $10 billion on Snowy 2.0 Pumped Hydro Boondoggle
The patrician and aloof Malcolm Turnbull continues as a parody of a PM. At a point when most political leaders would be reacting to the wholesale destruction of businesses and whole industries (along with tens of thousands of meaningful jobs) caused by spiralling power costs, Turnbull literally headed for the hills to pump his … Continue reading Wind Industry Salvage Mission: Turnbull Government Set to Squander $10 billion on Snowy 2.0 Pumped Hydro Boondoggle
Stable, Reliable Coal-Fired Power Still the Cheapest By a Country Mile
You’ve got to hand it to the wind cult. Australia’s dwindling band of wind industry spruikers keep telling us that the answer to cheaper power prices is out there blowin’ in the wind. The more deranged among their number have been telling us that wind power is actually cheaper than coal-fired power, for years. There’s … Continue reading Stable, Reliable Coal-Fired Power Still the Cheapest By a Country Mile
Desperate Measures: Renewables Rush Leaves Australians Scrambling for Reliable Power
Act in haste, repent at your leisure: Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy fiasco has sent power prices through the roof and all but destroyed its once reliable power supplies. Over our Southern Summer, grid managers have been tearing their hair out, as they attempt to keep the lights on in South Australia, Victoria and New South … Continue reading Desperate Measures: Renewables Rush Leaves Australians Scrambling for Reliable Power
Wind Power Chaos Sets Up Rampant Price Gouging by Conventional Generators
There aren’t many guarantees in life (death and taxes usually top the list). However, after the debacle that’s played out in South Australia (the pinup girl for renewable energy zealots), there is nothing more certain than the relationship between subsidised renewables and rocketing power prices. Among energy market illiterates the argument goes that, because the … Continue reading Wind Power Chaos Sets Up Rampant Price Gouging by Conventional Generators
South Australia’s Electric ‘La-La Land’: Renewables Debacle Adds 124% to Wholesale Prices
One of the wind cult’s more pathetic efforts in late 2017 was to run a line that notionally wind powered South Australia’s wholesale power prices were finally heading south. All thanks, of course, to the wonder of sunshine and breezes. Meanwhile, back on earth, the reality is that South Australia’s wholesale power prices have increased … Continue reading South Australia’s Electric ‘La-La Land’: Renewables Debacle Adds 124% to Wholesale Prices
