Germany led the way, and others soon followed: erratically delivered wind and solar now dominates Europe’s power grid. Naturally enough, power prices have rocketed and grid managers are left to deal with the chaos delivered by sunset and/or calm weather. Rapid surges and/or collapses in voltage and frequency - consequent upon surges and collapses in … Continue reading Wind & Solar Chaos Leaves Europe’s Power Grid On Brink of Total Collapse

Home Wreckers: Finnish Study Finds Wind Turbine Infrasound Unsafe For Residents Living Within 15 Km
The Finns are renowned for their stoicism, but grinding, pulsing wind turbine noise is too much for any sentient being, even the Finnish. The evidence proving the unnecessary damage done to wind farm neighbours by the noise generated by giant industrial wind turbines is mounting by the day: Germany’s Max Planck Institute has identified sub-audible … Continue reading Home Wreckers: Finnish Study Finds Wind Turbine Infrasound Unsafe For Residents Living Within 15 Km
Poles Apart: Polish Government Bans New Wind Farms & All Existing Turbines Gone by 2035
Faced with thousand of furious rural voters sick of being overrun by industrial wind turbines, Poland has effectively banned all new onshore wind farms. The prices fixed for new wind power contracts are so low as to mock hopeful developers, making it highly unlikely that any new contracts will be entered. And, clearly spooked by hostile rural voters, … Continue reading Poles Apart: Polish Government Bans New Wind Farms & All Existing Turbines Gone by 2035
Germany’s Renewable Energy Fail: German CO2 Emissions 10 Times Higher than Nuclear-Powered France
The meme has it that wind and solar are all about slashing CO2 emissions, whereas that pathetic pair are just a colossal moneymaking scam. Apart from South Australia, no country other than Germany threw more at chaotically intermittent wind and solar. The results have been an utter debacle: Germans suffer the second highest power prices … Continue reading Germany’s Renewable Energy Fail: German CO2 Emissions 10 Times Higher than Nuclear-Powered France
Merry Christmas to Stop These Things’ Followers & Happy Sixth Birthday to STT
Merry Christmas and Season’s Greetings to all of our dedicated band of followers, all around the World. And it’s Happy Birthday to STT: Boxing Day 2018 marks 6 years of giving an embattled wind industry and its dwindling band of parasites and spruikers hell. We’ve clocked over 2.8 million views and given our loyal readers … Continue reading Merry Christmas to Stop These Things’ Followers & Happy Sixth Birthday to STT
Hopelessly Helpless: German Wind Power Fails 93.3% Of The Time & Collapses in Minutes
When the challenge is thrown at wind power proponents about its hopeless intermittency, like a drug addict, the answer is always “more”. More of the same, more turbines, more panels, more subsidies, more transmission network capacity, more non-existent mega batteries, well, just more. Germany is held up as the shining example of what our … Continue reading Hopelessly Helpless: German Wind Power Fails 93.3% Of The Time & Collapses in Minutes
Road to Nowhere: Wind Power’s Pathetic Performance Continues All Across Europe
With the wind always blowing somewhere, it’s claimed that if turbines are spread far and wide, there’ll be a constant supply of wind ‘energy’. Except whole countries and indeed vast tracts of whole continents face dead-calm weather on a routine and regular basis. South-eastern Australia is home to 5,000MW of wind power capacity, spread … Continue reading Road to Nowhere: Wind Power’s Pathetic Performance Continues All Across Europe
Deutschland’s Death Spiral: Germany Can’t Control Runaway Cost of ‘Green’ Energy ‘Transition’
When energy policy is driven by ideology, rather than engineering, physics and economics, expect mixed results. Unmitigated disasters, like Australia’s wind and solar capital, South Australia are just the most obvious examples of what happens when lunatics take charge of the asylum. Germany is right up there, too. With rocketing power prices and a grid … Continue reading Deutschland’s Death Spiral: Germany Can’t Control Runaway Cost of ‘Green’ Energy ‘Transition’
Colossal Cover-up: German Government Suppresses Damning Wind Turbine Noise Evidence
The German government has been caught erasing data that shows residents are exposed to levels of wind turbine infrasound dangerous to health. Not for the first time and not for the last time is a government complicit in causing wholesale harm to its citizens. No country went harder or faster than Germany when it came … Continue reading Colossal Cover-up: German Government Suppresses Damning Wind Turbine Noise Evidence
Pointless Part-Time Power: Germany’s Readily Available Wind Power Capacity Less Than 1% of Total Installed Capacity
When it comes to actually delivering wind power, the real and the ideal are a gulf apart. In Australia, the average capacity factor (the ratio between actual output and nominal capacity) is just on 28% across the Eastern Grid, where 1,800 turbines with a total capacity of 5,100 MW have been speared across four … Continue reading Pointless Part-Time Power: Germany’s Readily Available Wind Power Capacity Less Than 1% of Total Installed Capacity
