In the absence of endless subsidies and guaranteed, fixed-price contracts (set at ludicrously high prices), the purported economic case for wind power never, ever stacks up. And the metrics are far worse out at sea. Notwithstanding the $billions in subsidies - gouged from taxpayers and/or lumped on power consumers’ crushing power bills - proposed projects … Continue reading Cash Inferno: Offshore Wind Power Fastest Way to Squander Countless $Billions

Cry Babies: Wind Industry Demands Even More Massive Taxpayer Backed Subsidies
The wind ‘industry’ chews through $billions of other people’s money every day, but it’s never enough. Part of the problem is the metric of their mantra. Telling everyone that wind power ‘is cheap’ and getting cheaper all the time doesn’t gel with ‘forever’ subsidies, renewable targets, mandates and guaranteed prices for power which is delivered … Continue reading Cry Babies: Wind Industry Demands Even More Massive Taxpayer Backed Subsidies
Fraction Too Much Fiction: Scorching The “Wind & Solar Are Cheap” Myth
‘Wind and solar power are cheap and reliable’, ‘war is peace’, ‘freedom is slavery’ or so the Ministry of Truth would have you believe. Perverting the meaning of language is all in a day’s work for the rent-seeking crowd that sit behind wind and solar outfits - ably assisted by a crowd of deranged zealots … Continue reading Fraction Too Much Fiction: Scorching The “Wind & Solar Are Cheap” Myth
Power Supplier Sued For Gaming Market Around Wind & Solar Output Collapses
Intermittent wind and solar deliver guaranteed grid chaos and rocketing power prices. Every single country that’s chased the wind and solar pipe dream has watched their power prices go through the roof, with no exception. STT has been banging on about this since December 2012. So, don’t say we didn’t warn you. The graphic above … Continue reading Power Supplier Sued For Gaming Market Around Wind & Solar Output Collapses
Masses Fightback: Germans Mobilize Against €Trillion Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Disaster
You can fool some of the people, some of the time. But Germany’s wind and sun cult are struggling to fool all of the people, for all time. Slowly but surely, the average German is working out that they have been played for fools. As Charles MacKay observed: “Men, it has been well said, think … Continue reading Masses Fightback: Germans Mobilize Against €Trillion Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Disaster
Irony Alert: Why Offshore Wind Power Increases Carbon Dioxide Gas Emissions
Wind power is delivered chaotically, it’s costly and critically depends on the weather. So, the only purported justification is said to be a reduction of carbon dioxide gas emissions in the electricity generation sector. Putting aside whether there’s any need to do so, STT is happy to attack the myth that wind power does any … Continue reading Irony Alert: Why Offshore Wind Power Increases Carbon Dioxide Gas Emissions
Canada’s Wind Industry Wiping Out Endangered Bat Species At Alarming Rate
Bats are just another creature being tormented or slaughtered by the wind industry as sets about ‘saving’ the planet. Courtesy of 40-70m long blades with their outer tips travelling at over 350 km/h, rare and endangered bat species are being wiped off the face of the earth at an astonishing rate. It’s not just direct … Continue reading Canada’s Wind Industry Wiping Out Endangered Bat Species At Alarming Rate
Why Chaotically Delivered Wind and Solar Act Like Cancer On The Power Grid
There are 3 electricity essentials: that the power source and its delivery to homes and businesses be: 1) reliable; 2) secure; and 3) affordable. Wind power - a wholly weather-dependent power source, that can’t be stored and costs 3-4 times the cost of conventional power - scores NIL on all three counts. Over the last … Continue reading Why Chaotically Delivered Wind and Solar Act Like Cancer On The Power Grid
Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)
Claims about an inevitable wind and solar transition show wishful thinking is no match for the laws of physics. Sunset (a daily occurrence, for the uninitiated) and calm weather (also a common and natural phenomenon) are where the physical reality begins; and the much-heralded shift to an all-wind and solar-powered future begins to unravel. Then … Continue reading Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)
Wind Industry’s Callous Treatment of Rural Communities Driving Farmers’ Revolt
The great wind power fraud depends on unwitting land owners signing up to host turbines, on the promise of hassle-free 'easy' money, which in turn requires them to sell their souls to charming wind power outfits like Thailand’s RATCH (see our posts here and here and here). No turbine hosts; no wind industry. It's that simple. Farmers who do … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Callous Treatment of Rural Communities Driving Farmers’ Revolt
