Enough Already: Time To Declare America’s Pacific North-West Wind Turbine Free
American hostility towards these things is world-renowned, now those from the picturesque Pacific North-West have cried ‘enough already’. Blessed with enviable hydropower resources, Washington State is not the first in the Union to take a set against industrial wind power, and it won’t be the last. Keen to avoid the power pricing and supply calamity … Continue reading Enough Already: Time To Declare America’s Pacific North-West Wind Turbine Free
Wind Industry Claims Scorched: Wind Power Costs Are Increasing Not Decreasing
The true cost of wind power is staggering and, despite wild claims to the contrary, is becoming more even expensive, not less so.

Hydrogen Hyperbole: Debunking Overblown Claims That Hydrogen Can Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Renewable energy rent seekers claim converting useless, unpredictable and unreliable wind and solar power into hydrogen gas is a cinch. Sure, the notion of turning useless electricity into something that can be used as and when consumers need it - rather than something that depends on the whims of mother nature - makes sense - … Continue reading Hydrogen Hyperbole: Debunking Overblown Claims That Hydrogen Can Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Wicked Waste: Snowy 2.0 Pumped Hydro Project Australia’s Biggest Energy White Elephant
With a price tag in excess of $10 billion, Australia’s biggest pumped hydro project, Snowy 2.0, is easily its single biggest white elephant. Sure, the Feds have already squandered magnitudes more on subsidies and soft loans to wind and solar. And the purported benefit of Snowy 2.0 is to use excess wind and solar power … Continue reading Wicked Waste: Snowy 2.0 Pumped Hydro Project Australia’s Biggest Energy White Elephant
Why Wind & Solar Are Pointless: ‘Renewables Will Power Us’ Myth, Smashed Again
