No Hopers: Inability to Deliver On Demand Makes Wind & Solar Utterly Pointless
Part-time power has no commercial value, which is why wind and solar are utterly pointless. Every single MW of wind or solar has to be “backed up” with another MW from a dispatchable source, which in the main means coal, gas, nuclear or hydro. Contemplate where your power comes from on a calm night, and … Continue reading No Hopers: Inability to Deliver On Demand Makes Wind & Solar Utterly Pointless
Rent-Seeking Wind & Solar Scammers Stealing From Taxpayers
The great wind and solar scam has allowed crony capitalists to make out like bandits. While they couldn’t care less about delivering reliable and affordable power, try standing between them and a bucket of subsidies and they’ll soon respond.

Power For The People: Communities Revolt Against Great Wind Industry Scam
The wind industry lost the battle for hearts and minds, years ago. No one buys the lies anymore, and anyone who has given energy a moment’s consideration recognises this grand government-backed fraud for what it is.

Making a Small Fortune Investing in Wind & Solar Means Starting With A Large One

Tangled Webs: How Crony Capitalists Built The Climate Industrial Complex

Critters Crushed, Forests Trashed: Welcome To Your (Occasionally) Wind Powered Future
The wind and solar ‘industries’ profit from two tier environmental regulation. Where a gas or coal project gets knocked out of the park over a speckled banjo frog or a sea snake, the deliberate slaughter of rare and iconic creatures to make way for wind turbines or solar panels rarely raises an eyebrow with those … Continue reading Critters Crushed, Forests Trashed: Welcome To Your (Occasionally) Wind Powered Future
Big & Ugly: Wind and Solar Rollout Devouring World’s Best Land
Whether it’s pristine ancient forests or prime agricultural land, wind and solar outfits will destroy it in a heartbeat. If left to the cynical rent-seeking class, there won’t be an inch of the planet worth saving, after they have carpeted it with millions of acres of part-time power producing panels and speared millions of these … Continue reading Big & Ugly: Wind and Solar Rollout Devouring World’s Best Land
Net Zero Suicide Watch: Suicidal Energy Policies Deliver Economic Disaster
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
