Battle Lines: American Farmers Winning War Against Lying, Greedy Wind & Solar Outfits

Remember all those glowing stories about wind and solar power outfits being welcomed into rural communities with open arms? You know, tales about how farmers are dying to have turbines lined up all over their properties? How locals can’t wait to pick up some of the thousands of permanent, high paying jobs on offer? How developers … Continue reading Battle Lines: American Farmers Winning War Against Lying, Greedy Wind & Solar Outfits

Gas Demand Driven By Need to ‘Back Up’ Wind & Solar Using Fast-Start Gas Turbines

Before the obsession with intermittent wind and solar took hold, gas was rarely used to generate electricity if coal, nuclear or hydro sources were available. Gas-fired electricity, in the main, was simply too expensive, by comparison with coal-fired power. Coal-fired generators are designed to run around-the-clock. Wind turbines and solar panels only run according to … Continue reading Gas Demand Driven By Need to ‘Back Up’ Wind & Solar Using Fast-Start Gas Turbines

‘Green’ Fraud: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Devouring The Planet’s Scarce Resources

Rent-seekers and the MSM keep telling us the transition to an all-wind and sun-powered future is not only inevitable, it's a cinch. The power pricing and supply calamity playing out in renewables-obsessed Germany and Britain stands as a pretty fair counterpoint, to that nonsense. Then, we’re told, it can all be done, provided it's “done … Continue reading ‘Green’ Fraud: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Devouring The Planet’s Scarce Resources

Dig This: Miners Can’t Keep Up With Wind Industry’s Insatiable Mineral Demands

The wind industry’s insatiable demand for the Planet’s (purportedly) dwindling resources has no apparent limit. Inside every giant industrial wind turbine, there’s a bevy of rare minerals which are fast becoming rarer. Then there are more mundane minerals like iron ore (used to make steel) and copper, critical to their generators, internal cabling and wiring, … Continue reading Dig This: Miners Can’t Keep Up With Wind Industry’s Insatiable Mineral Demands

No New Green Deal: Nothing Environmentally Friendly About Wind & Solar

Cultists couldn’t care less about the environmental destruction that both wind and solar leave in their wake, merrily ignoring the thousands of wind turbine blades and millions solar panels already being dumped in landfills. Apparently, their mountainous toxic waste legacy will be something for future generations to deal with. The same characters vilify fossil fuels … Continue reading No New Green Deal: Nothing Environmentally Friendly About Wind & Solar

State Sanctioned Slaughter: Wind Farm Operator Gets Licence to Kill Rare & Endangered Bats

The wind power cult have no difficulty in justifying the destruction of pristine landscapes; the dismemberment of once cohesive, rural communities; the creation of toxic waste lands in China (where the rare earths essential to wind turbines are processed); crushing power prices that punish the poorest and most vulnerable in society; and barely shrug at the slaughter … Continue reading State Sanctioned Slaughter: Wind Farm Operator Gets Licence to Kill Rare & Endangered Bats

Don’t Believe The Hype: Exposing Staggering Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

There’s only one problem with the claim that wind and solar are cheap; that would be the evidence. The power pricing and supply calamity that has struck Britain and Germany, and places like California and South Australia before that, renders the “renewables are cheap” meme little more than delusional nonsense. But the unhinged and unsupported … Continue reading Don’t Believe The Hype: Exposing Staggering Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

Electric Dreams: Why We Can Never Run Exclusively On Wind & Solar Power

The next ‘big thing’ is an all-electric world, where power caressed from sunshine and breezes will provide all the energy, we ever need, for everything we ever do. Given the tag ‘electrification’, it sounds like another simple wheeze that only requires an open mind and a little goodwill. Well, like the grand wind and solar … Continue reading Electric Dreams: Why We Can Never Run Exclusively On Wind & Solar Power

Chairman Mao Returns: ‘Green’ Energy Cult Delivers Another ‘Great Leap Forward’

The ‘transition’ to wind and solar is delivering punishing power prices to those who can least afford it, and the inevitable power rationing surrounding collapses in wind and solar output is crushing businesses of all shapes and sizes. The zealots behind it couldn’t care less about the vulnerable and impoverished that drift along at the … Continue reading Chairman Mao Returns: ‘Green’ Energy Cult Delivers Another ‘Great Leap Forward’

Grand ‘Renewables’ Delusion: Hard Reality Keeps Smashing Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Myth

Zealots tout Germany as the benchmark for the ‘inevitable transition’ to wind and solar, but its energy system is a complete debacle; power rationing is the new normal and prices are through the roof. Indeed, any country that got serious about subsidising wind and solar is finding itself in serious trouble. Disastrous examples such as … Continue reading Grand ‘Renewables’ Delusion: Hard Reality Keeps Smashing Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Myth
