German power prices, already the highest in Europe, have gone stratospheric. Once Europe’s industrial powerhouse, Germany is fast headed for economic ruin and social disaster. 20 years back, Germany’s Green/Socialist utopians - utterly detached from reality - dreamt up the ‘Energiewende’. However, the purported ‘transition’ to an all-wind and sun-powered future has turned dystopian nightmare. … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Leaves Germans Suffering Europe’s Highest Power Prices

‘New’ Virtual Power Plants Mean More Draconian Government Demand Control
Democratic civil societies were built on having access to energy as and when their citizens need it. Which tends to suggest that the grand wind and solar transition is as uncivilised and undemocratic as it gets. The idea of consumers demanding a commodity with benefits and paying for those benefits in return is pretty much … Continue reading ‘New’ Virtual Power Plants Mean More Draconian Government Demand Control
No Substitute: Poverty Reduction Depends On Access To Energy Rich Coal, Oil & Gas
The first step out of grinding poverty starts with access to energy-rich hydrocarbons: ie coal, oil and gas. Third World governments are continually berated by opportunistic globalists who claim to be saving the planet by forcing them to take up insanely expensive and thoroughly unreliable wind and solar. Some are duped, sure enough. But it … Continue reading No Substitute: Poverty Reduction Depends On Access To Energy Rich Coal, Oil & Gas
Masses Fightback: Germans Mobilize Against €Trillion Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Disaster
You can fool some of the people, some of the time. But Germany’s wind and sun cult are struggling to fool all of the people, for all time. Slowly but surely, the average German is working out that they have been played for fools. As Charles MacKay observed: “Men, it has been well said, think … Continue reading Masses Fightback: Germans Mobilize Against €Trillion Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Disaster
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
Australians Count Cost of Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Power Prices Jump 25-30%
Following the closure of another coal-fired power plant, Australians have just been told their power bills will jump by 25 to 30% come July. That colossal hike follows annual, double-digit increases every year, for the best part of a decade (see above). $60 billion in subsidies (so far) to chaotically intermittent wind and solar was … Continue reading Australians Count Cost of Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Power Prices Jump 25-30%
The Case for Nukes: The Pathway To Freedom & Prosperity Is Reliable & Affordable Energy
No country ever got rich relying on wind and solar power, but plenty of rich countries are driving themselves into penury by doing so. At the heart of every prosperous nation is the ability to tap reliable and affordable energy sources. While the richest billion are intent on squandering their energy legacy on weather -dependent … Continue reading The Case for Nukes: The Pathway To Freedom & Prosperity Is Reliable & Affordable Energy
Serious Energy: Coal, Oil & Gas Deliver Warmth, Light & Power All Day, Every Day
Coal, oil and gas, are truly modernising forces, lifting billions out of agrarian poverty - powering machines and driving industrialization. People called on fossil fuels, when they should be called hydrocarbon heroes. Access to reliable electricity provide an escape route for the impoverished, and hope for a less miserable future. Watch villagers in the Third … Continue reading Serious Energy: Coal, Oil & Gas Deliver Warmth, Light & Power All Day, Every Day
Australians Pay Colossal Price For Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Power Prices Jump 25-30%
In another, ‘we told you so’ moment, retail power prices in Australia will jump by 20% to 30% in June, following annual, double-digit increases every year, for the best part of a decade (see above). $60 billion in subsidies (so far) to chaotically intermittent wind and solar was designed to wreck our conventional coal-fired power … Continue reading Australians Pay Colossal Price For Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Power Prices Jump 25-30%
Blackout Transition: Intermittent Wind & Solar Power Surge Wrecking California’s Grid
Rocketing power prices and routine blackouts are the inevitable consequence of the ‘inevitable’ wind and solar ‘transition’ - California is no exception. Indeed, thanks to their deranged leaders’ obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar, Californians will be lucky to have power, at all. Putting aside the question of whether all but the elite will … Continue reading Blackout Transition: Intermittent Wind & Solar Power Surge Wrecking California’s Grid
