Never short on audacity, Britain’s wind industry is now peddling the myth that it’ll soon be lighting up all of Europe. Notwithstanding the fact that it was forced to fire up its coal-fired power plants to overcome the Big Calm in the last months of 2021, when wind power output collapsed across the UK and … Continue reading Fake News: Debunking Claims That Britain’s Set to Light Up Europe With Wind Power

Dumb & Dumber: Germany Wins Prize For World’s Most Idiotic Energy Policy
Germany set the gold standard for idiotic renewable energy policies, although the Brits, Californians, Texans and South Australians are keen contenders for that glittering prize. Thanks to its unhinged obsession with intermittent wind and solar, Germans are in the midst of a power pricing and supply calamity. Suffering Europe’s highest power prices, is just the … Continue reading Dumb & Dumber: Germany Wins Prize For World’s Most Idiotic Energy Policy
Why Heavily Subsidised & Utterly Unreliable Wind & Solar Will Wreck Your Economy
The wind and solar cult will never admit it, but coal-fired power is the backbone of Australia’s electricity grid. Without it, this country would descend into Stone Age chaos in next to no time. With the announcement that another reliable coal-fired power plant will be shuttered in a few years’ time, the response from our … Continue reading Why Heavily Subsidised & Utterly Unreliable Wind & Solar Will Wreck Your Economy
There Is No Plan B: Why Battery Storage Can’t Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Carpetbaggers profiting from hopelessly intermittent wind and solar still claim that mega-batteries are the solution to their obvious lack of reliability. But it only takes a moment’s reckoning to appreciate that the grid-scale storage electricity generated by wind or solar is a perfect nonsense. It hasn’t occurred anywhere in the world; nor will it. David … Continue reading There Is No Plan B: Why Battery Storage Can’t Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Blown Away: Counting The Cost of Europe’s Self-Made Renewable Energy Crisis
Europe’s insatiable appetite for unreliable wind and solar has left Europeans hungry for any kind of power, provided it’s available on demand. The French have rebooted investment in their 56 existing nuclear plants and are planning a further 14 to add to their enviable fleet. The Brits and the Germans are stoking up their ‘ageing’ … Continue reading Blown Away: Counting The Cost of Europe’s Self-Made Renewable Energy Crisis
Why Wind Power Output Collapses Are Causing Europe’s Power Prices to Rocket
Rocketing power prices were inevitable once Europe decided to put all its energy eggs in the wind power basket. Europe has squandered billions on subsidies to construct tens of thousands of turbines both onshore and off - the Germans managed to spear more than 30,000 across their homeland and are paying a hefty price. By … Continue reading Why Wind Power Output Collapses Are Causing Europe’s Power Prices to Rocket
Atomic Attraction: Wind Power’s Abject Failure Forces Europe to Embrace Nuclear Power
To call Europe’s rapid embrace of nuclear power ‘passionate’ is not overstatement. Much to the horror of wind and solar acolytes, a growing number of EU members are ready to declare nuclear power is not only clean and green, but wholly sustainable. Wind and solar-obsessed Germans and Brits are watching power prices go into orbit … Continue reading Atomic Attraction: Wind Power’s Abject Failure Forces Europe to Embrace Nuclear Power
Continued Reliance On Wind & Solar Leaves Texans Vulnerable to More Mass Blackouts
Total collapses in wind and solar output during last year’s big freeze meant that hundreds of Texans froze to death. 12 months on and, apparently, little’s been learnt. During America’s big freeze last February, wind turbines were frozen solid across Texas and breathless frigid conditions that meant the remainder delivered no power, in any event. … Continue reading Continued Reliance On Wind & Solar Leaves Texans Vulnerable to More Mass Blackouts
Jo Biden’s Anti-Fossil Fuel Policies Wrecking American Energy Independence
Not so long ago, the USA went from a net energy importer to exporter. Now, thanks to Joe Biden and his anti-fossil fuel Squad, it’s fast becoming a third-rate energy power. With the erratic and dithering Biden struggling to get a grip on reality in the midst of an energy crisis, Americans are watching their … Continue reading Jo Biden’s Anti-Fossil Fuel Policies Wrecking American Energy Independence
Deep ‘Green’ Punishment: Power Prices Set To Double In Wind Power Obsessed Britain
Thanks to the UK's love affair with intermittent wind power, Brit’s power bills will double this April when a legislated price cap is lifted; UK power prices are already amongst the highest in Europe. And there is much worse to come. Instead of coming to grips with its self-inflicted renewable energy calamity, its energy brains … Continue reading Deep ‘Green’ Punishment: Power Prices Set To Double In Wind Power Obsessed Britain
