The grand wind and solar transition comes with a staggering pricetag, not least the $trillions required to connect far-flung wind turbines and solar panels to increasingly distant markets. Building a secondary network of high voltage transmission lines and interconnectors to carry the power occasionally generated by wind turbines and solar panels, spread far and wide, … Continue reading Consumers Carry Colossal Cost of Getting Wind & Solar From Nowhere to Somewhere

Dazed & Confused: 5 Things About the ‘Inevitable Energy Transition’ That Make No Sense
Confused about the grand wind and solar ‘transition’? It’s a sensation experienced by any rational thinker. None of what’s put forward makes even the vaguest sense, once the critical faculties are applied. Jude Clemente selects 5 subjects as a subset and does just that in the piece below. 5 Things I Truly Don’t Understand About … Continue reading Dazed & Confused: 5 Things About the ‘Inevitable Energy Transition’ That Make No Sense
‘Green’ Energy Lie Busted By World’s Increasing Reliance On Coal, Oil & Gas
There is a cult that holds an unshakeable belief that wind and solar has already defeated coal, oil and gas. Not that there is any real contest. Indeed, without the hydrocarbons there would be no solar panels or wind turbines. Moreover, were we ever to attempt to rely on wind and solar power generation alone, … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Lie Busted By World’s Increasing Reliance On Coal, Oil & Gas
Grand Theft: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Squanders $Trillions in Taxpayers’ Cash
The hundreds of $billions paid in subsidies to intermittent wind and solar constitute the largest wealth transfer in economic history - from unwitting power consumers and taxpayers to a cabal of rent-seeking crony capitalists. Greed and avarice drives them, aided and abetted by government mandates, diktats and decrees. Built on lies and running on subsidies, … Continue reading Grand Theft: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Squanders $Trillions in Taxpayers’ Cash
Cash Inferno: Offshore Wind Power Fastest Way to Squander Countless $Billions
In the absence of endless subsidies and guaranteed, fixed-price contracts (set at ludicrously high prices), the purported economic case for wind power never, ever stacks up. And the metrics are far worse out at sea. Notwithstanding the $billions in subsidies - gouged from taxpayers and/or lumped on power consumers’ crushing power bills - proposed projects … Continue reading Cash Inferno: Offshore Wind Power Fastest Way to Squander Countless $Billions
Coal-Fired Power Rescues Germany From Failed Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
Germans have worked out that relying on the weather for your power has one major problem: “The Weather”. They’ve even coined a term for gloomy, windless weather - ‘dunkelflaute’ - periods of days or weeks when their more than 30,000 wind turbines and millions of solar panels produce next to nothing or nothing at all. … Continue reading Coal-Fired Power Rescues Germany From Failed Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
Crash Test Dummies: Wind Turbine Maker Siemens Suffers Massive Share Price Slump
The world’s wind turbine makers are bleeding cash; none of them are capable of turning a profit and all of them are facing financial ruin. General Electric’s renewables business blew a cool $2.2bn of shareholder value in 2022. Siemens Gamesa has axed hundreds of jobs in Europe and America. Vestas, Nordex and Enercon are also … Continue reading Crash Test Dummies: Wind Turbine Maker Siemens Suffers Massive Share Price Slump
No Deal: Aussie Farmers Reject Massive Wind & Solar Transmission Grid Rollout
The wind cultist is always ready to spear hundreds of giant 240m (787ft) industrial wind turbines into your backyard, but howls bloody outrage should the ‘favour’ look like being returned. Destroying your patch of paradise is a sacrifice that he is always willing to make. Characters like former Greens leader, Bob Brown and rent-seeking renewables lobbyist, Oliver Yates. … Continue reading No Deal: Aussie Farmers Reject Massive Wind & Solar Transmission Grid Rollout
Subsidised Wind & Solar Delivering Crushing Power Prices For Energy-Starved Californians
Looking for insight into the wind and solar ‘transition’? Then start with California - where power prices are crushing the poorest households, and blackouts and routine power rationing are now an accepted part of their attempt to run on heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Power prices, already the highest in the USA, … Continue reading Subsidised Wind & Solar Delivering Crushing Power Prices For Energy-Starved Californians
Grand Energy Deception: Unpacking The Worldwide $5 Trillion Renewable Energy Scam
The heralded wind and solar ‘transition’ has already revealed itself as among the greatest deceptions ever pulled. Harry Houdini would have been impressed with the wind and sun cult’s ability to turn night into day and twist logic and reason beyond even the most delusional imagination. As Nick Giambruno details in this punchy little essay, … Continue reading Grand Energy Deception: Unpacking The Worldwide $5 Trillion Renewable Energy Scam
