Like a jilted bride, wind and solar have lost all love and favour as Europe scrambles for reliable and affordable energy. Now it seems that the only inevitable thing about the ‘inevitable transition’ is that when people are forced to choose between electricity delivered reliably and affordably and the purportedly clean and green kind, they … Continue reading Russia’s Ukrainian Invasion Equation: Europe Ditches Wind & Solar Transition

If you’re looking for litigious trouble, spear a few giant industrial wind turbines in someone’s backyard and you’ll soon find it. Americans have made suing wind developers for noise nuisance a national pastime. Now the Greeks are getting in on the act. Hélène Colliopoulou details the fury that’s led to locals lawyering up and suing … Continue reading RE-Volt: Greeks Sue Wind Developers for Nightly Wind Turbine Noise Torture
Green Dream Delivers Daily Reality: Power Rationing, Blackouts & Rocketing Power Bills
In the fantasy land occupied by green dreamers, the wind is always blowing and the sun is always shining. Not for them the reality of sunset and calm weather. It’s their truth, and they’re sticking with it. Destabilising grids and power markets, chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar may be beloved of crony … Continue reading Green Dream Delivers Daily Reality: Power Rationing, Blackouts & Rocketing Power Bills
Green Civil War: Grassroots Environmental Groups Turn On Wind & Solar ‘Industries’
The faux environmentalist is easy to spot: they love industrial wind and solar power and couldn’t care less about the unbridalled environmental destruction they cause. Faced with the rampant slaughter of birds and bats, he or she initially denies the evidence and then pushes the moral equivalence button, claiming that more birds are killed by … Continue reading Green Civil War: Grassroots Environmental Groups Turn On Wind & Solar ‘Industries’
No End Date For Coal & Nuclear: Gas Crunch Drives Germany’s Grand Renewables Backflip
A month or so back, Germany’s green-infested government was talking up the end of coal and nuclear power plants; the last phase in its ‘inevitable’ transition to an all wind and sun-powered future, as the wind and sun cult would have it. Well. That was then, this is now. With the squeeze on Russian gas … Continue reading No End Date For Coal & Nuclear: Gas Crunch Drives Germany’s Grand Renewables Backflip

The strategies are … Continue reading How The Wind Industry Propaganda Machine Smears Its Community Based Opponents
Power Price Punishment: Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar Killing Productive Industry & Enterprise
Reliance on intermittent wind and solar guarantees rocketing power prices and chaotic supply. Price spikes and/or power rationing when the sun sets or calm weather sets in are the death knell for a range of energy-hungry businesses and industries. Manufacturing and mineral processing are usually the first to disappear, when the true costs of running … Continue reading Power Price Punishment: Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar Killing Productive Industry & Enterprise
Europe’s Insatiable Demand for Gas Driven by Total Wind Power Output Collapses
Gas producers love wind power because of its hopeless intermittency, which drives demand for gas and raises prices across the board. No better example has been Europe’s months-long wind drought, when wind power output was little more than pitiful and the demand for gas, accordingly, went through the roof. Craig Mackinlay explains the relationship below. … Continue reading Europe’s Insatiable Demand for Gas Driven by Total Wind Power Output Collapses
Reality Check: Europe’s ‘Inevitable’ Wind & Solar Transition Unwinds In Ukraine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZ-4gnNz0vc That the West has become weak and silly, is best exemplified by its concerted efforts to wreck hitherto reliable and affordable energy supplies. While policy wonks will argue forever about the precise casus belli for Putin’s attack on Ukraine, it is unarguable that Europe’s insatiable demand for Russian oil and gas has allowed … Continue reading Reality Check: Europe’s ‘Inevitable’ Wind & Solar Transition Unwinds In Ukraine
Gas Blow Out: Vlad’s Invasion Exposes European Renewable Energy Policy Insanity
You know it’s a cult when innocents are being wiped out by shells and missiles and they’re fretting that we’ll lose our focus on the weather, as a result. As Russian tanks began shelling family homes across Ukraine, missiles struck home and air raid sirens screamed over Kyiv, John Kerry worried that Vlad’s westward expansion … Continue reading Gas Blow Out: Vlad’s Invasion Exposes European Renewable Energy Policy Insanity
