Blown Away: Counting the Colossal Cost of Cleaning Up ‘Clean’ Energy’s Monstrous Mess
Giant industrial wind turbines have an economic lifespan around 15 years, after which the chances are that they’ll be left to rust in some idiot’s back paddock. Decommissioning these things properly at a sizeable wind farm would run into the hundreds of millions. Then there's the toxic waste. Already, thousands of 45-70m blades are being … Continue reading Blown Away: Counting the Colossal Cost of Cleaning Up ‘Clean’ Energy’s Monstrous Mess

Summer Blackouts Beckon: Australia’s Renewable Energy Debacle Won’t Be Fixed with Batteries
Almost as soon as Joe Public worked out that wind and solar can never work, RE rent seekers started babbling about giant batteries saving the day. STT will keep smashing the line about giant batteries overcoming the chaotic delivery of wind and solar, while RE zealots keep pushing it. The pitch from RE zealots is … Continue reading Summer Blackouts Beckon: Australia’s Renewable Energy Debacle Won’t Be Fixed with Batteries
Renewable Wreckage: Texas Town’s Push for 100% Wind & Solar Sends Prices Into Orbit
The wind may be free and the sun, when it’s shining, doesn’t cost a penny. But wind and solar literally cost the earth.
