Wiping out entire forest habitats is all part of our ‘inevitable’ transition to a wind powered future. Across Germany, millions of acres of forest have been clear-felled and great swathes cut through others, to allow some 30,000 of these things to be speared across Deutschland. The same wanton destruction has been integral to Scotland’s … Continue reading Scotland’s Wind Industry Clear-Fells 17,283 Acres & Wipes Out 14,000,000 Trees To ‘Save’ Planet

German Resistance: Furious Rural Residents Bring Wind Farm Construction to Dead Halt
Much to the horror of wind power promoters, all eyes are on Germany at the minute, with its wind industry in freefall, turbine manufacturers in ruin and rural residents in revolt. In 2019 less than 200 turbines were erected onshore [a figure of 325 is given below which apparently includes offshore turbines] and a trifling … Continue reading German Resistance: Furious Rural Residents Bring Wind Farm Construction to Dead Halt
Frozen: Germany’s Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Turns Into Power Pricing & Supply Disaster
Because RE zealots crowed about Germany’s ‘inevitable transition’ to wind and solar from the outset, it’s no surprise that its disastrous conclusion is attracting attention, much like a freeway pileup. Germany’s so-called Energiewende (energy transition) has turned into a power pricing and supply calamity. Which was as perfectly predictable as it was perfectly avoidable. Jonathan … Continue reading Frozen: Germany’s Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Turns Into Power Pricing & Supply Disaster
Time to Get Serious: Fretting About CO2? Then Nuclear Power’s The Only Solution
If you’ve tuned in to someone banging on about ‘carbon pollution’ (aka carbon dioxide gas) and they aren’t banging on about nuclear power, it’s time to tune out. STT promotes nuclear power because it works. Reliable, safe and affordable it’s the only stand-alone power generation system that does not generate carbon dioxide gas during the … Continue reading Time to Get Serious: Fretting About CO2? Then Nuclear Power’s The Only Solution
Down Tools: Australia’s Most Powerful Workers Union Rejects Unreliable Wind & Solar
Labor – aka the ‘Workers Party’ – remains determined to destroy whole industries and thousands of jobs with a 50% RET and a giant ‘carbon’ tax. Business and job destroying policies that helped it comfortably lose the ‘unloseable’ Federal election in May, and which its deluded front bench simply can’t bear to let go. Australian … Continue reading Down Tools: Australia’s Most Powerful Workers Union Rejects Unreliable Wind & Solar
Terminal Diagnosis: Wind & Solar Chaos Places Australia’s Power Grid On Life Support
Australia’s self-inflicted wind and solar calamity has just got serious; very serious. Managing electricity grids is a finely balanced affair, requiring the ability to control what goes in and what goes out on a second-by-second basis. The generation and distribution of electricity was relatively simple when synchronous, dispatchable conventional generation sources (in Australia, coal, gas … Continue reading Terminal Diagnosis: Wind & Solar Chaos Places Australia’s Power Grid On Life Support
Money For Nothing: Scotland’s Wind Farms Earn More Revenue When They’re Turned Off!!
The fact that Scotland’s wind farms have pocketed £650m for not generating power has attracted more than just a little attention. STT has run several stories over the last few months about wind power outfits being paid very handsomely to NOT generate electricity. Perhaps it’s the sense of outrage that comes with knowing a group … Continue reading Money For Nothing: Scotland’s Wind Farms Earn More Revenue When They’re Turned Off!!
If Wind & Solar Are So Cheap, Why Are Germans Paying World’s Highest Power Prices?
Renewable energy zealots keep telling us that wind and solar are free and getting cheaper all the time. Germany puts paid to that lie: Renewable Energy Transition: Wind & Solar Obsession Leaves Germans Suffering the World’s Highest Power Prices And, with a looming capacity crunch, Germans will be lucky to have power at all, at any … Continue reading If Wind & Solar Are So Cheap, Why Are Germans Paying World’s Highest Power Prices?
Ripped Off: How Wind & Solar Industries Rigged Power Markets & Power Consumers Pay
The wind and solar ‘industries’ produce plenty of power when no one needs it and often fail to produce it when everybody does. The fact that they can’t deliver as and when power consumers demand electricity, means that power consumers pay - whether in the form of massive subsidies, Feed-in-tariffs, soft loans and government guaranteed … Continue reading Ripped Off: How Wind & Solar Industries Rigged Power Markets & Power Consumers Pay
Crunch Time: Germany’s Wind & Solar Disaster Leaves Germans Scrambling For Reliable Power
Germany’s obsession with intermittent wind and solar was never going to end well. Power prices are now the highest in Europe, if not the world. But paying for power is only a problem for those Germans who are lucky enough to be supplied with it. Wherever there’s an attempt to run on sunshine and breezes, … Continue reading Crunch Time: Germany’s Wind & Solar Disaster Leaves Germans Scrambling For Reliable Power
