The line that Australia’s rocketing power prices will soon plummet is just a cruel hoax. The subsidies for large-scale wind and solar under the Federal government’s Large-Scale RET will total more than $60 billion over the life of that scheme: the Renewable Energy Certificates issued under the LRET have already added more than $18 billion … Continue reading Total Flop: 20 years & $60 Billion in Subsidies, Wind & Solar ‘Deliver’ Risible 7% of Australia’s Power Demand

100% Ruinable: Democrat’s New ‘Green’ Deal Would Cost Americans $4.5 Trillion
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s ‘New Green Deal’ heralds a new Dark Ages nightmare. Although, in fairness to the original pixie dream girl, the notion that the world’s leading energy consumer can operate entirely on sunshine and breezes is an utter fantasy. Ocasio-Cortez and her clueless acolytes run the line that because the sun and wind are … Continue reading 100% Ruinable: Democrat’s New ‘Green’ Deal Would Cost Americans $4.5 Trillion
Fractions & Fantasy: Grid Scale Battery Storage Completely Insignificant
For almost a century, electricity generation and distribution were treated as a tightly integrated system: it was designed and built as one, and is meant to operate as designed. However, the chaotic delivery of wind and solar have all but trashed the electricity generation and delivery system, as we know it. Germany and South Australia … Continue reading Fractions & Fantasy: Grid Scale Battery Storage Completely Insignificant
Half-Baked Hoax: Claims For All Wind & Solar Powered Future Are Pure Fantasy
No country has ever powered itself entirely with wind and solar. No country ever will. The image above is not the crazed doodlings of a maniac, it’s the combined output of every wind turbine connected to Australia’s Eastern Grid last month thanks to Aneroid Energy. Note the numerous occasions when output plummets by 2-3,000MW in minutes, … Continue reading Half-Baked Hoax: Claims For All Wind & Solar Powered Future Are Pure Fantasy
Trump Slams Wind Power: Making America Great Again Means Coal, Gas & Nuclear Power
Teenage girls in woolly hats weren’t the only ones screaming when Donald Trump took the presidency, the wind and solar industries were furious, too. Trump has never been a fan of the wind industry, not least because of his battle with a wind developer keen on spearing 11 of these things next to a golf … Continue reading Trump Slams Wind Power: Making America Great Again Means Coal, Gas & Nuclear Power
Pricing Vanity: Counting the Crushing Costs of Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar
The claim that renewables are cheaper than coal, gas and nuclear is simply nonsense. There’s a reason why wind and solar obsessed Germany, Denmark and South Australia fight it out for the honour of paying the world’s highest power prices. Where conventional generators can be counted on to deliver 24 x 7, wind and solar … Continue reading Pricing Vanity: Counting the Crushing Costs of Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar
Red Faces: Mainstream Journos Quietly Drop Support For Intermittent Wind & Solar
Often wrong, never in doubt, the mainstream press is responsible for the idea that we’re well on our way to an all wind and sun powered future. The need for massive and endless subsidies is ignored; and the chaotic intermittency of wind and solar, brushed aside with waffle about mega-batteries saving the day. The mainstream … Continue reading Red Faces: Mainstream Journos Quietly Drop Support For Intermittent Wind & Solar
Slam Dunk: Wind Developer Faces $Millions in Liability for Noise Nuisance – Acoustic Report Finds Wind Farm Non-Compliant
Until now, Australia’s wind industry owned the game. Having written the rules of operation, helped by corrupt government officials and its pet acoustic consultants, wind power operators have treated noise affected neighbours with derision and contempt. Now the game is the wind industry's to lose, and it all started at a little place in Victoria, … Continue reading Slam Dunk: Wind Developer Faces $Millions in Liability for Noise Nuisance – Acoustic Report Finds Wind Farm Non-Compliant
Fatal Attraction: Wind & Solar Obsession Causing Rocketing Power Prices & Frozen Grannies
Australia’s wind and solar obsession has driven power prices through the roof and the poor and elderly to early graves. Staying warm in the depth of winter is no longer just a matter of turning up the dial on the AC, for the poorest and most vulnerable it’s a daily battle for survival. In the … Continue reading Fatal Attraction: Wind & Solar Obsession Causing Rocketing Power Prices & Frozen Grannies
Growing-Up: Australians Get Serious About Serious Energy, Demanding Nuclear Power, Now
All of a sudden, Australians are talking about a nuclear powered future, like there’s no tomorrow. Having recognised that climate alarmists will never relent in their crusade against carbon dioxide gas - being a proxy for eradicating cheap, reliable and affordable coal-fired power - anyone interested in a future where hot showers and cold beer … Continue reading Growing-Up: Australians Get Serious About Serious Energy, Demanding Nuclear Power, Now
