Britain’s power consumers are paying a heavy price for its maniacal obsession with intermittent wind and solar. Trashing its coal-fired power fleet and failing to keep up its nuclear plants now looks positively suicidal. The cost of generating occasional electricity offshore is positively insane, and getting worse. And that’s just to focus on the economics. … Continue reading Net Zero Suicide Watch: Suicidal Energy Policies Deliver Economic Disaster

Terminal Decline: China’s Double-Headed Wind Turbine Signals Industry’s Last Gasp
The wind industry started out as absurd, and only became more so over time. The turbines became bigger, the blades longer and capacities went from piddling 1.5 MW machines to 18MW monsters - albeit so large they can barely stand up against stiff breezes, let alone a full-blown hurricane. As the blades grew, their habit … Continue reading Terminal Decline: China’s Double-Headed Wind Turbine Signals Industry’s Last Gasp
Oh So Green: Wind Industry Burns Diesel to Prevent Turbines From Freezing
In another you ‘couldn’t make it up’ moment, the wind industry has been busted burning tonnes of diesel to keep turbines spinning in an effort to prevent them freezing solid during cold weather. In Scotland, the ‘fossil fuel’ consumption outbreak involves burning diesel in local generators, which send power into the turbines to keep them … Continue reading Oh So Green: Wind Industry Burns Diesel to Prevent Turbines From Freezing
Death by Numbers: Wind Industry Can’t Avoid Mounting Whale Carcass Count
The offshore wind industry is taking a pounding for its pointless slaughter of whales, dolphins and more. And rightly so. While the US Federal government has provided wind power outfits with a license to kill, the general public are not so forgiving. And they’re growing hostility represent a whale-sized political problem for offshore wind. Once … Continue reading Death by Numbers: Wind Industry Can’t Avoid Mounting Whale Carcass Count
Wind Industry’s Share Prices Plummet As More Offshore Wind Projects Get Scrapped
The wind industry’s financial misery is spreading like the toxic junk from disintegrating turbine blades that’s covering vast tracts of the Atlantic coastline. Once bullish forecasts for giant offshore wind turbine projects these days sound like suicide pacts involving other people’s money. Loose talk about mega-offshore projects has been replaced by massive and mounting losses … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Share Prices Plummet As More Offshore Wind Projects Get Scrapped
‘Renewables’ Reversal: Rural Communities Reject Grand Wind & Solar Rollout
Rejecting the overtures of liars and scammers is easy. For years the wind and solar industries have made an art form of both. Now, slowly but surely, communities have learned to spot the lies and community defenders are driving the scammers out of town. STT recently reported on the growing number of landholders who are … Continue reading ‘Renewables’ Reversal: Rural Communities Reject Grand Wind & Solar Rollout
Natural Limits: World’s Mineral Supply Can’t Match Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Demands
The climate cult reckons we’re well on our way to an all-wind and solar-powered future. But with the wind and solar industries’ demand for raw materials - like copper - already outstripping supply, the grand ‘transition’ will soon hit some very natural limits. Inside every giant industrial wind turbine, there’s a bevy of rare minerals which … Continue reading Natural Limits: World’s Mineral Supply Can’t Match Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Demands
Simply Insatiable: Wind & Solar Keep Devouring & Demanding Massive Subsidies
For almost 40 years, wind and solar proponents have been telling us that the subsidies they rely on are only temporary. Which most understood to mean a few years, at most. Back in 1983 the American Wind Industry Association claimed that wind power would be “competitive and self-supporting on a national level by the end … Continue reading Simply Insatiable: Wind & Solar Keep Devouring & Demanding Massive Subsidies
No Go Zones: How The Wind Industry Has Wrecked Rural Communities Everywhere
Abandoning perfectly habitable homes to escape neighbouring industrial wind turbine aggregations is a serious response aimed at avoiding a perpetually miserable future. Being deprived of the opportunity to live, sleep in and otherwise enjoy one’s own home is bad enough. Losing that fundamental proprietary (indeed human) right without compensation is criminal - the perpetrators are … Continue reading No Go Zones: How The Wind Industry Has Wrecked Rural Communities Everywhere
Europe’s Nuclear Reset Means Wind Turbine Makers Face Total Collapse
Europe’s wind and solar industries are on the ropes, thanks to the sudden embrace of ever-reliable nuclear power across the Continent. Producing machines that can never produce power on demand was always going to end in tears. But moves to amp up construction of nuclear power plants - initiated by the French and followed by … Continue reading Europe’s Nuclear Reset Means Wind Turbine Makers Face Total Collapse
