Climate Changed: Calm, Gloomy Weather Killing Europe’s Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

In the mother of all ironies, Europe’s wind and sun cult are complaining about uncooperative weather. The Germans have even coined a word for it: ‘dunkelflaute’ - meaning a period of gloomy, windless weather. Which, in reality, means little or nothing by way of output from their more than 30,000 wind turbines and millions of … Continue reading Climate Changed: Calm, Gloomy Weather Killing Europe’s Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

Nuclear’s Cheap: French Power Prices Half That Suffered In Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ Germany

That the nuclear-powered French pay prices around half that suffered by their wind and solar-obsessed German neighbours is the kind of barebones fact the wind and sun cult absolutely hate. The French set the benchmark for generating clean, safe and reliable nuclear power; they’ve been doing so for nearly 60 years and still get over … Continue reading Nuclear’s Cheap: French Power Prices Half That Suffered In Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ Germany

Biggest Losers: Thousands Sacked As Germany’s Wind Turbine Makers Face Financial Doom

Cut the subsidies to wind power and turbine makers soon fold. Siemens Gamesa has been axing hundreds of jobs in Europe and America as the wheels come off the renewable energy gravy train. Now, Vestas, Nordex and Enercon are also facing financial ruin, and for all the same reasons. Some of their travails are caused by the fact … Continue reading Biggest Losers: Thousands Sacked As Germany’s Wind Turbine Makers Face Financial Doom

Perfect Irony: Climate Cult Pushes Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar To Change The Weather

The Big Calm that struck wind power-dependent Europe and the UK in the latter half of 2021, was dripping in irony. They were meant to ‘fix’ the weather and here it was demonstrating how magnificently pathetic they are at generating power as and when we need it. Promoted by misanthropic doomsday peddlers, wind and solar … Continue reading Perfect Irony: Climate Cult Pushes Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar To Change The Weather

Real Energy Rules: Germans Shred Wind Farm To Expand Critical Coal Supplies

Germans apparently aren't keen on freezing in the dark, so they’ve started trashing wind turbines to expand the coal supplies that prevent that kind of misery. There are more than 30,000 wind turbines spread across Deutschland, with thousands more off the German coast. Notwithstanding brave talk about killing off their coal-fired power plants, made redundant … Continue reading Real Energy Rules: Germans Shred Wind Farm To Expand Critical Coal Supplies

Small Modular Reaction: Europe’s Wind & Solar Disaster Paves Way For New Nuclear Age

Europe’s energy disaster proves, beyond doubt, that wind and solar are an abject failure, leaving the way clear for nuclear power and any other power generation source that can dish it up, on demand. With numerous operators seeking or obtaining licences to build Small Modular Reactors, and numerous countries signing up to have them, SMRs … Continue reading Small Modular Reaction: Europe’s Wind & Solar Disaster Paves Way For New Nuclear Age

Money For Nothing: Europe Squandered $Trillions On Weather-Dependent Part Time Power

Despite Europe spending €1.2 Trillion on large-scale wind and solar generation, the amount of power being actually delivered in return is risible. Which is precisely what you’d expect from power generation sources which can only deliver anything like their nameplate capacity when the sun is up, in a cloudless sky, and the wind is blowing … Continue reading Money For Nothing: Europe Squandered $Trillions On Weather-Dependent Part Time Power

Europe’s Wind & Solar Dependent States Scramble To Secure Reliable Supplies

Every country in Europe that hitched its hopes to sunshine and breezes is now in a mad scramble to secure reliable power supplies, before winter starts to bite and demand soars. Watching the debacle playing out across Europe, is a little like the old party game of musical chairs. Every time the music stops at … Continue reading Europe’s Wind & Solar Dependent States Scramble To Secure Reliable Supplies

Europe’s Wind & Solar Disaster Heralds Nuclear Power’s New Beginning

Like planting trees, the best time to build nuclear power plants was 20 years ago, the next best time is right now. Before climate cultists started demonising coal-fired power, the world was awash in reliable and affordable electricity. Now, however, the crowd that berates us about human-generated carbon dioxide gas are hellbent on destroying coal … Continue reading Europe’s Wind & Solar Disaster Heralds Nuclear Power’s New Beginning

Fired-Up: Global Demand For Coal Defies Wind & Sun Cult’s Predictions of Doom

World energy markets keep defying the wind and solar cult’s prediction that coal’s days are over. The meme has it that ‘coal is dead’, but in reality it hasn’t suffered so much as a flesh wound. Indeed, thermal coal prices are off the charts, with record demand driving record prices: Australian thermal coal prices hit $US$400 … Continue reading Fired-Up: Global Demand For Coal Defies Wind & Sun Cult’s Predictions of Doom
