Grid-Scale Power Storage Myth Busted: Giant Batteries Can’t Save Unreliable Wind & Solar

It only takes a moment’s reckoning to appreciate that the grid-scale storage electricity generated by wind or solar is a perfect nonsense. Those profiting from hopelessly intermittent wind and solar still claim that mega-batteries are the solution to their obvious lack of reliability. Others point to pumped hydro and even ridiculously claim that “excess” wind … Continue reading Grid-Scale Power Storage Myth Busted: Giant Batteries Can’t Save Unreliable Wind & Solar

Unable to Pay Their Rocketing Power Bills, Germans Told to ‘Huddle Up’ Next Winter

Germany’s obsession with unreliable wind and solar has households and businesses paying the Europe’s highest power prices, when electricity isn’t being rationed, that is. That more than 300,000 German households can no longer afford electricity, comes as no surprise. That hundreds of thousands of people in Europe’s richest economy are forced to heat their homes … Continue reading Unable to Pay Their Rocketing Power Bills, Germans Told to ‘Huddle Up’ Next Winter

Utterly Pointless: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Can’t Cut Carbon Dioxide Gas Emissions

For renewable energy rent-seekers, the claim that wind and solar reduce carbon oxide gas emissions is a necessary and endlessly repeated lie. The necessity comes from the fact that without that (utterly false) premise the wind and solar industries would have been dead and buried, years ago. Incapable of ever supplying power as and when … Continue reading Utterly Pointless: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Can’t Cut Carbon Dioxide Gas Emissions

Dead Calm Weather Exposes The Great ‘Green’ Energy Lie Almost Every Single Day

If you believe that the ‘cheque’s in the mail’, ‘the wind is always blowing somewhere’ and ‘the sun never sets’, you’ll believe anything. STT is dedicated to exposing the lie that we are well on our way to an inevitable transition to an all-wind and sun-powered future. What’s depicted above – courtesy of Aneroid Energy – … Continue reading Dead Calm Weather Exposes The Great ‘Green’ Energy Lie Almost Every Single Day

Planet Sized Problem: Millions More Wind Turbine Blades Destined for Landfills Near You

Mike Moore’s Planet of the Humans exposed the mountains of toxic filth generated by so-called ‘green’ energy, much to the horror of renewable energy rent-seekers and climate cult zealots, alike. Solar panels are a veritable toxic cocktail of gallium arsenide, tellurium, silver, crystalline silicon, lead, cadmium, and heavy earth material. Then there’s the landfill legacy being created … Continue reading Planet Sized Problem: Millions More Wind Turbine Blades Destined for Landfills Near You

Renewables Road to Nowhere: Subsidised Wind & Solar Just Don’t Work & Never Will

In the absence of mandates directing grid managers to take chaotic wind or solar power ahead of conventional power and/or massive subsidies directed to retailers encouraging them to take it and/or heavy fines imposed on them if they refuse to, there is simply no commercial market for power which can only be generated occasionally, in … Continue reading Renewables Road to Nowhere: Subsidised Wind & Solar Just Don’t Work & Never Will

Power Shock: Renewables Meltdown Leaves Australians With Power Shortages & Crippling Power Bills

The erratic and occasional delivery of wind and solar has sent wholesale power prices into orbit and major energy users are simply being chopped from the grid when wind and/or solar output hits the floor. Consumers have just been hit with retail power bills which are between 20 and 30% higher than the same time last … Continue reading Power Shock: Renewables Meltdown Leaves Australians With Power Shortages & Crippling Power Bills

All Pain/No Gain: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Can Never Really Power Us

Calm weather and sunset mean that wind and solar will never amount to meaningful power sources. And mythical grid-scale electricity storage won’t save them, either. Never to be defeated by facts, reason and logic, wind and solar acolytes are quick to point to a rare occasion when their combined output is equal to, or greater … Continue reading All Pain/No Gain: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Can Never Really Power Us

Skyrocketing Power Prices & Power Rationing: Germany First To Hit The Wind & Solar Wall

Germans are in the midst of a power pricing and supply disaster thanks to the world’s most idiotic energy policy, centred on an unhinged obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Already suffering Europe’s highest power prices, consumers are bracing for even worse to come. Vladimir Putin’s Ukrainian adventure has merely brought things to a … Continue reading Skyrocketing Power Prices & Power Rationing: Germany First To Hit The Wind & Solar Wall

Why Big Batteries Can’t Cure Wind & Solar’s Hopeless Intermittency

Politicos and the MSM are wedded to the myth that mega-batteries are all we need to overcome the chaotic delivery of wind and solar. The addition of which, we are told, is both imminent and cost-free. No country on earth has been able to crack the cost-effective grid-scale storage electricity. The laws of physics are … Continue reading Why Big Batteries Can’t Cure Wind & Solar’s Hopeless Intermittency
