The myth that wind and solar are meaningful power sources was busted long ago. Quite apparently incapable of operating on their own, what purports to be the future of electricity generation turns out to be a pair of complete duds. [Note to Ed: is this the part where we point out tricky facts such as … Continue reading Coal Wins Power Price ‘War’: Adding Storage Renders Cost of Wind & Solar Astronomical

Pointless Part-Time Power: Germany’s Readily Available Wind Power Capacity Less Than 1% of Total Installed Capacity
When it comes to actually delivering wind power, the real and the ideal are a gulf apart. In Australia, the average capacity factor (the ratio between actual output and nominal capacity) is just on 28% across the Eastern Grid, where 1,800 turbines with a total capacity of 5,100 MW have been speared across four … Continue reading Pointless Part-Time Power: Germany’s Readily Available Wind Power Capacity Less Than 1% of Total Installed Capacity
Time to ‘Trump’ Paris Climate Deal: Suicidal Energy Policy Based on Hysterical IPCC Report
One of Donald Trump’s first moves as President was to cut the US loose from the suicidal Paris Climate agreement. With cheap energy and an America first approach to economic policy, the USA is attracting international investment in the same way young Royals attract paparazzi. The US economy is booming: the Australian dollar is copping … Continue reading Time to ‘Trump’ Paris Climate Deal: Suicidal Energy Policy Based on Hysterical IPCC Report
Enemy Within: Virtue Signalling Renewable Energy Zealots Determined to Destroy Australia’s Economic Prosperity
Wind and solar is a purely political phenomenon: they have nothing to do with economics, instead, they’re all about virtue signalling. In the absence of massive and endless subsidies, this wouldn’t even be a topic. The idea that an economy can run on sunshine and breezes is, of course, patent nonsense. Debacles like South … Continue reading Enemy Within: Virtue Signalling Renewable Energy Zealots Determined to Destroy Australia’s Economic Prosperity
Renewables Reality Bites: Wind & Solar Power Chaos Threatens Complete Grid Collapse
The Australian summer is a few weeks away and with it comes the threat of mass blackouts, caused by the chaotic delivery of wind and solar. As temperatures soar, so does the demand for electricity, as businesses and households crank up their air conditioners to make life more tolerable indoors. When demand spikes in Australia … Continue reading Renewables Reality Bites: Wind & Solar Power Chaos Threatens Complete Grid Collapse
Game Over: Australia’s Energy Minister Slams Chaos Delivered by Subsidised Wind & Solar
The reason Australia’s renewable energy rent seekers are suicidal has a name: Angus Taylor. The Federal Energy Minister hates subsidised wind and solar with a passion. Taylor was elevated to the position in late July, and since then he’s been giving those involved in the greatest fraud of all time hell. Last week, Taylor appeared … Continue reading Game Over: Australia’s Energy Minister Slams Chaos Delivered by Subsidised Wind & Solar
Renewables Rejected: More Countries Get Serious About Serious Power Generation
Countries serious about their economic prosperity are getting serious about serious power generation. Ontario, China and Japan have slashed subsidies and mandated targets for wind and solar; between them China and Japan are building hundreds of high-efficiency, low emissions coal-fired plant at home and even more across South-East Asia. Germany’s transition to an all wind … Continue reading Renewables Rejected: More Countries Get Serious About Serious Power Generation
Wind Industry Panics as Class Actions Loom: WHO Finds Wind Turbine Noise Harmful to Health
It’s no mystery to those forced to live next to wind turbines that the incessant low-frequency noise they generate is seriously harmful to health. When humans set out to torture each other, sleep deprivation is usually top of the list. The wind industry has been doing just that, with impunity, for the best part of … Continue reading Wind Industry Panics as Class Actions Loom: WHO Finds Wind Turbine Noise Harmful to Health
Deutschland’s Delusion: Renewable Energy ‘Transition’ in Tatters – CO2 Targets Missed as Power Prices Spiral Out of Control
Germany has a history of clinging to lost causes: its ‘inevitable’ transition to wind and solar is just the latest example. As Berlin was overrun by the Red Army in April 1945, Hitler and his loyal aides and commanders kidded themselves that the Reich might soon ride again. The Fuhrer and his newly wedded … Continue reading Deutschland’s Delusion: Renewable Energy ‘Transition’ in Tatters – CO2 Targets Missed as Power Prices Spiral Out of Control
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels: American Wind Industry Caught Faking Community ‘Support’ for Wind Power
The wind industry was founded on myth, is built on lies and runs on a mix of subsidies and propaganda. And, it should never be forgotten that, the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time, was only made possible by our political betters. Armed with the belief (not unjustified) that you can fool most … Continue reading Dirty Rotten Scoundrels: American Wind Industry Caught Faking Community ‘Support’ for Wind Power
