Germany’s wind and solar experiment has failed: the so-called ‘Energiewende’ (energy transition) has turned into an insanely costly debacle. German power prices have rocketed; blackouts and load shedding are the norm; and once bucolic farmland has been turned into industrial wastelands (see above). Hundreds of billions of euros have been squandered on subsidies to wind and solar, … Continue reading Power Poverty: Subsidised Wind & Solar Means 5 Million Germans Struggle To Pay Rocketing Power Bills & 340,000 Families Cut From Grid

Pointless Power: Why Wind Power Can Never Replace Coal, Gas, Nuclear or Hydro
Give a sentient being a few moments of uninterrupted consideration and they’ll soon work out why wind power can never work. Start with the weather. No one plans a weekend kite flying expedition a month in advance. And circumnavigating sailors know not to announce their arrival date at the time of departure, for much the … Continue reading Pointless Power: Why Wind Power Can Never Replace Coal, Gas, Nuclear or Hydro
Flat Broke & Busted: German Wind Turbine Maker Senvion’s Spectacular Financial Collapse
Cut the subsidies and the wind industry would disappear in a heartbeat. The business model (read 'colossal government mandated scam') has all the hallmarks of an enormous Ponzi scheme - the wind industry's demise is a matter of when, not if. The withdrawal of subsidies across Europe has taken its toll, as the number of … Continue reading Flat Broke & Busted: German Wind Turbine Maker Senvion’s Spectacular Financial Collapse
Insidious Infrasound: Governments Blind to Residents Suffering From Wind Industry Torture
If there’s one thing worse than the wind industry lying about the effects of incessant wind turbine noise and infrasound, it’s governments helping them do so. Over the last decade, the wind industry has ridden roughshod over the rights of law-abiding citizens to live peacefully in their very own homes. The battle that’s followed proves … Continue reading Insidious Infrasound: Governments Blind to Residents Suffering From Wind Industry Torture
Real Suffering: No One Should Suffer The Noise That Wind Farm Neighbours Put Up With
Unless you’re living with it, you’ll have no idea what it’s like to suffer incessant wind turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound. A trail of abandoned homes wherever these things operate is testament to the fact that the noise is insufferable. The usual retort from RE zealots is that only jealous neighbours complain. Tell that … Continue reading Real Suffering: No One Should Suffer The Noise That Wind Farm Neighbours Put Up With
All Black Future: Intermittent Renewables Chaos Means Longer Blackouts, Much More Often
Pinning your power hopes on the weather requires more than just a leap of faith, it requires candles, torches and a sturdy backup generator. The hapless denizens of South Australia (Australia’s wind and solar capital) are now world-renowned for their (enforced) self-reliance and stoicism. In wind and solar obsessed Australia, couple a spike in demand … Continue reading All Black Future: Intermittent Renewables Chaos Means Longer Blackouts, Much More Often
Government Surrenders: PM Hoists White Flag on Australia’s Self-inflicted Renewable Energy Crisis
With Labor threatening a 50% RET and a giant carbon tax, Australian industry is ready to pack up stumps and leave. But, instead of fighting for those industries, businesses and the jobs they create, the Liberal/National Coalition has thrown in the towel. STT had high hopes for the Energy Minister, Angus Taylor when he … Continue reading Government Surrenders: PM Hoists White Flag on Australia’s Self-inflicted Renewable Energy Crisis
Captain Chaos: Intermittent Wind & Solar Destroying Australia’s Eastern Power Grid
‘System’ and ‘reliability’ were once synonymous with Australia’s power grid. Not so, anymore, thanks to chaotically intermittent wind and solar. In another “don’t say we told you so” moment, the lunatics that have taken charge of the Australian Energy Market Commission have been forced to concede that the so-called ‘transition’ to an all wind … Continue reading Captain Chaos: Intermittent Wind & Solar Destroying Australia’s Eastern Power Grid
Australia’s Great Shame: Renewable Energy Obsession Leaves Thousands of Australians Powerless
Australia’s maniacal obsession with attempting to power itself on sunshine and breezes has led to ‘The Great Shame’: a 140% increase in the number of homes disconnected from the grid, no longer able to afford power prices rocketing, year-on year, at 16 to 20%, leaving 25% of households unable to cool their homes in … Continue reading Australia’s Great Shame: Renewable Energy Obsession Leaves Thousands of Australians Powerless
Hypocrites Playground: Australian Renewable Energy Policy Driven By Virtue Signalling Halfwits
Reading this in Australia? Then you’re doing so, thanks to coal. You might be doing so thanks to nuclear power, if only the dimwits that profess to run this country hadn’t banned it. On any given day, between 70 and 80% of what flows through Australia’s Eastern Grid comes from coal-fired power plants. Of course, … Continue reading Hypocrites Playground: Australian Renewable Energy Policy Driven By Virtue Signalling Halfwits
