The subsidised wind and solar chickens are coming home to roost - power prices are rocketing out of control in any jurisdiction attempting to run on sunshine and breezes.

UK’s Wind Industry Will Pocket £3 Billion In Subsidies For Producing Nothing At All
The ‘constraint payments’ paid to wind power outfits are commercial extortion, where the (occasional) producer claims a fee for producing absolutely nothing, at all.

In this case, the victims are unwitting taxpayers and … Continue reading UK’s Wind Industry Will Pocket £3 Billion In Subsidies For Producing Nothing At All
