Here’s the news: wind power critically depends upon the wind, without which there ain’t no wind power. Simples. Beyond seven days meteorologists are little more than glorified soothsayers when it comes to predicting the weather. How many times do we see revised forecasts given the day before, when only a week before that, the maximum … Continue reading The Weather: Why Wind Power Will Always Be Hopelessly Intermittent & Unreliable

Forever Subsidised: America’s Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Biggest Fear Is Real Competition
Profiteering wind and solar rent-seekers have only one real fear in the electricity market: actual competition. Claims from renewable energy profiteers that wind and solar are truly competitive with nuclear, coal or gas evaporate the instant policymakers start talking about removing subsidies to wind and solar. Back in 1983 the American Wind Industry Association claimed … Continue reading Forever Subsidised: America’s Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Biggest Fear Is Real Competition
Brace For Blackouts: World’s Reliance On Unreliable Wind & Solar Spells Energy Disaster
Topping the list of things that seemed like a good idea at the time sits wind and solar power. What, with the energy sources that drive them free and natural; with no visible emissions of spent gas or fumes; with their shiny panels harvesting the sun’s rays and delivering electricity for five or six hours … Continue reading Brace For Blackouts: World’s Reliance On Unreliable Wind & Solar Spells Energy Disaster
Pushing On String: Adding More Wind Turbines Doesn’t Mean More Power Gets Delivered
Wind power never adds up: it doesn’t matter how many turbines carpet your horizons, in calm weather total output always amounts to nothing. For sheer density, the Germans win hands down, with more than 30,000 of these things carpeted across Deutschland’s rural landscapes and, once pristine, forests. And yet, from late September, through October and … Continue reading Pushing On String: Adding More Wind Turbines Doesn’t Mean More Power Gets Delivered
Landslide Decision: Communities Call For End to Wind Industry’s Environmental Destruction
The cowboys behind wind power outfits couldn’t care less whether they destroy your property values or simply destroy your property. Cutting engineering corners and avoiding planning regulations is all in a day’s work. The results are plain for neighbours to see: wanton habitat and environmental destruction, all in the name of ‘saving the planet’, of … Continue reading Landslide Decision: Communities Call For End to Wind Industry’s Environmental Destruction
Let Them Freeze: Wind & Solar Generators Couldn’t Care Less About Your Welfare
The wind and solar industries couldn’t care less whether you freeze to death when winter bites across the northern hemisphere and wind and solar output collapse. Solar panels plastered in snow and ice produce nothing; wind turbines frozen solid during breathless, frigid weather produce even less (they actually consume power from the grid to run … Continue reading Let Them Freeze: Wind & Solar Generators Couldn’t Care Less About Your Welfare
Blade-Runners: Wind Industry Illegally Dumping Discarded Turbine Blades Across America
Hundreds of thousands of wind turbine blades have already found their way into landfill, with millions more to follow. Bear in mind the wind industry has been with us for barely 20 years and most of the increase in (occasional) generating capacity has occurred in the last decade. And yet, thousands of blades are being … Continue reading Blade-Runners: Wind Industry Illegally Dumping Discarded Turbine Blades Across America
Green New Deal Gamble: Democrats Playing Russian Roulette With America’s Energy Future
Across the globe, the quest for wind and solar power domination has taken on all the menace of a friendly round of Russian roulette. The front runners in the USA, California and Texas, have already experienced life-threatening wind and solar output collapses; during statewide heatwaves in the former, and during last February’s Big Freeze, in … Continue reading Green New Deal Gamble: Democrats Playing Russian Roulette With America’s Energy Future
Subsidised Suicide: 2021 Revealed Wind & Solar To Be Unreliable & Utterly Useless
Wind and solar are said to be ‘cheap’, but then so’s talk. 2021 was the year when wind and solar were revealed to be thoroughly useless, thanks to their inherent intermittency and general lack of reliability. Starting in September last year, for months on end, Europe’s wind power fleet struggle to produce any consistent power … Continue reading Subsidised Suicide: 2021 Revealed Wind & Solar To Be Unreliable & Utterly Useless
Energy High Treason: The ‘Environmental’ Groups Sabotaging Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies
Outfits like the Sierra Club ought to be charged with High Treason, for trying to destroy reliable and affordable power supplies - supplies critical to peace, prosperity and the survival of Western civilisation. As to defence, in a high-tech world of internet surveillance, satellite reconnaissance and remotely controlled drones, try protecting the Realm without electricity … Continue reading Energy High Treason: The ‘Environmental’ Groups Sabotaging Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies
