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 Loose talk about mega-offshore projects has been replaced by massive and mounting losses … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Share Prices Plummet As More Offshore Wind Projects Get Scrapped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

Oil & Gas Producers Making Massive Profits From Intermittent Wind & Solar

Oil and gas producers are making a killing thanks to chaotically intermittent wind and solar, providing fuel to run gas and diesel generators as so-called ‘backup’. Mike Holly apparently doesn’t like monopolies and has a set against hydrocarbons. However, he makes a fair point targeting oil and gas producers making a killing every time wind … Continue reading Oil & Gas Producers Making Massive Profits From Intermittent Wind & Solar

Disintegrating Offshore Turbine Blades Littering Coast With Shredded Toxic Fibreglass

These things have a nasty habit of self-destructing without notice - whether it’s shredding and/or throwing their blades for miles, or spontaneously combusting in toxic fireballs, the environmental damage done is immediate and often permanent. In a recent post - Fibreglass From Shredded Wind Turbine Blades Renders Farming Land Useless - we covered the story … Continue reading Disintegrating Offshore Turbine Blades Littering Coast With Shredded Toxic Fibreglass

Weather Rules: Calm Nights Keep Killing Wild Wind & Solar Transition Claims

Talk a big game and you’d better be prepared to back it up. The wind and sun cult have been telling us that we’re well on our way to wind and solar powered future, for years now. But the prevalence of calm nights says otherwise. Over the last 6 months, the sun has been setting … Continue reading Weather Rules: Calm Nights Keep Killing Wild Wind & Solar Transition Claims

Enraged Eco-Fascists Plan to Crush All Opposition to Wind & Solar Rollout

Already condescending and dictatorial, the bureaucracy pushing wind and large-scale and scale solar has gone full fascist. The class that lead the charge for crony capitalists treat rural communities as roadkill, which is why those communities are fighting back, for all they’re worth. Rural and regional Australia is very eager to support Peter Dutton’s policy … Continue reading Enraged Eco-Fascists Plan to Crush All Opposition to Wind & Solar Rollout
