If wind and solar power are so cheap, then why is it that Germany now suffers Europe’s highest power prices? And equally wind power obsessed, Denmark is right behind it? On the one hand, the wind and solar cult point to Germany as the shining example of our inevitable transition to an all wind and … Continue reading Priceless: Nuclear Powered French Pay Half What Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ Germans Pay for Power

Dark Future: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Learning to Live Without Power When You Need It
If you thought the ‘transition’ to wind and solar meant having power on demand, think again. Like the fine print on an insurance contract, the ‘deal’ being offered by renewable energy rent seekers comes with a nasty catch. When the chips are down, you simply won’t be covered. While wind and solar acolytes are keen … Continue reading Dark Future: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Learning to Live Without Power When You Need It
Alarm Call: Texan/Californian/South Australian Blackouts Herald End For Unreliable Wind & Solar
By no stretch of the imagination can entirely weather/sunshine-dependent power sources be described as “meaningful” or “serious”. The tale about the naked Emperor beguiled by his acolytes into believing his ‘attire’ was perfectly suited to every occasion, springs to mind. The gag was, of course, that the Emperor never had any clothes. Likewise, chaotically … Continue reading Alarm Call: Texan/Californian/South Australian Blackouts Herald End For Unreliable Wind & Solar
All Time High: Wind & Solar Obsession Triples Power Costs to German Industry & Domestic Prices Highest in Europe
In another ‘proof is in the pudding moment’, wind and solar obsessed Germans are now paying record prices for electricity. German households suffer the highest prices in Europe. And, over the last 20 years, the prices paid by German industry have almost tripled. Faced with the choice between going broke or going elsewhere, Germany’s world-renowned … Continue reading All Time High: Wind & Solar Obsession Triples Power Costs to German Industry & Domestic Prices Highest in Europe
Wind Power Fail: Britain’s Coal-Fired Power Plants Keep The Lights On During ‘Big Calm’
If having no power at all was the object of our ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and solar ‘powered’ future, then we’re well on our way. The bitter northern hemisphere winter just gone, has shown wind and solar for what they are: pointless and expensive vanity projects, that only a lunatic would promote and … Continue reading Wind Power Fail: Britain’s Coal-Fired Power Plants Keep The Lights On During ‘Big Calm’
German Hi-Tech Firms Driven Offshore By Unaffordable & Unreliable Renewable Energy
‘Net zero’ is precisely the number of meaningful jobs that’ll be left after our ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future. Looking for an example? Look no further than the wind and solar acolyte’s pinup girl, Germany. Notwithstanding billions of euros in subsidies, courageous mandates and punitive targets, its Energiewende has failed … Continue reading German Hi-Tech Firms Driven Offshore By Unaffordable & Unreliable Renewable Energy
Going, Going, Gone: Renewables Sector Reels As 150,000 German ‘Green’ Jobs Evaporate
The great ‘green’ jobs ‘bonanza’ is being revealed for the hoax that it truly is. And nowhere is that reality harsher, than in Mutti Merkel’s Germany. Plastered in solar panels (albeit blanketed in snow and ice at the moment) and overrun with 30,000 of these things, Deutschland has been held up as a renewable energy … Continue reading Going, Going, Gone: Renewables Sector Reels As 150,000 German ‘Green’ Jobs Evaporate
Pump It Up: Wind ‘Powered’ Britain Draining Europe’s Coal-Fired Plants via French Interconnector
Britain’s energy supply is in perfect chaos, the natural result of its increased reliance on totally unreliable wind power. Ostensibly, the UK has the benefit of its ‘superio’ offshore wind ‘resource’, providing what’s pitched as practically free electricity, caressed lovingly from mother nature. Behind-the-scenes, however, the story of what’s keeping the lights on in Britain … Continue reading Pump It Up: Wind ‘Powered’ Britain Draining Europe’s Coal-Fired Plants via French Interconnector
Perfect Storm: Renewables Obsession Leaves Europeans Vulnerable During Bitter Winter
Wind and solar are meant to be the solution to our looming weather woes. The truth is that the weather-dependent ‘unreliables’ have increased our mortal vulnerability to mother nature’s vagaries. Europe is in the grip of a bitter winter and, with routine and total collapses in both wind and solar output, its electricity grid is … Continue reading Perfect Storm: Renewables Obsession Leaves Europeans Vulnerable During Bitter Winter
Frequency Freak-out: Chaotic Wind & Solar Threaten to Cripple Europe’s Power Grid
Electricity grids are like a living organism and their day-to-day survival is a finely tuned operation. Balancing supply to match demand on an instantaneous basis, is part of the trick. However, the maintenance of the required frequency (50Hz in most cases) within a narrow and defined tolerance has become a nightmare of continental proportions, thanks … Continue reading Frequency Freak-out: Chaotic Wind & Solar Threaten to Cripple Europe’s Power Grid
