Renewables Driven Demand for Rare Earths Leaves America Vulnerable to CCP Extortion

Every wind turbine, every all EV and every solar panel critically depends upon a myriad of so-called ‘rare earths’. The minerals in question have become ‘rare’, of late, as a consequence of the Western world’s insatiable appetite for ‘feelgood’ electricity generated by sunshine and breezes, occasionally stored in giant lithium batteries, as well as the … Continue reading Renewables Driven Demand for Rare Earths Leaves America Vulnerable to CCP Extortion

Full-Steam Ahead: No End to China’s Insatiable Appetite For Coal-Fired Power

Second Rate Wind Power Side-lined In China’s Coal-Fired Economic Miracle

Despite claims by wind and solar acolytes that China is well on its way to an all renewables powered future, apparently, the black stuff still matters. A lot. A month or so back, Beijing banned Australian coal imports (dozens of ships loaded with Australian coal are sitting stuck in harbours along China’s south-east coast). Blackouts … Continue reading Second Rate Wind Power Side-lined In China’s Coal-Fired Economic Miracle

Massive Push For Coal & Nuclear Power Proves China’s Wind Power Investment All For Show

Inscrutable as ever, the Chinese pay plenty of lip service to unreliable wind and solar, but it’s coal and nuclear that are really powering the Middle Kingdom.

Indeed, as Dr John Constable details below, the pace of investment … Continue reading Massive Push For Coal & Nuclear Power Proves China’s Wind Power Investment All For Show
