In Germany, around €190 billion has already been burnt on renewable subsidies; currently the green energy levy costs €56 million every day. And, the level of subsidy for wind and solar sees Germans paying €20 billion a year for power that gets sold on the power exchange for around €2 billion. Energy poverty is a … Continue reading Germany’s Monumental Environmental Fail: CO2 Emissions Rise Despite €Trillions Blown on Subsidised Wind & Solar

Wind Turbine Ice Capades: German Wind Farm Neighbour Cheats Death, Dodging Flying Ice Chunks
*** Over the last few weeks German wind turbines have been stubbornly refusing to produce much power at all, while a frightening number have, instead, determined to completely self-destruct, with a rash of collapses, component liberation events (aka blade throws) and self-immolations (see our post here and below). Adding a distinctly cool flavour to the … Continue reading Wind Turbine Ice Capades: German Wind Farm Neighbour Cheats Death, Dodging Flying Ice Chunks
Will Germany’s Winter Wind & Solar Power Collapse Mean the End of the ‘Energiewende’?
STT has a ‘thing’ for the English language. In the hands of adept practitioners, our mother tongue is capable of conveying all manner of complex concepts and ideas, and doing so with verve and wit. However, in the hands of the well-paid spin doctors and useful political idiots that run with, and run cover for, … Continue reading Will Germany’s Winter Wind & Solar Power Collapse Mean the End of the ‘Energiewende’?

*** As it goes in South Australia, so it goes in Germany: the attempt to run on sunshine and breezes has led to rocketing power prices, energy poverty and a grid on the brink of collapse. Here's NoTricksZone on the German debacle. ‘Manager Magazin’ Reports How Renewable Electricity Is Taking Germany On A Wild Ride … Continue reading Germany’s Energiewende Nightmare: Grid Collapse Looms Due to Erratic Wind & Solar
Wind Farm Mass Attack: Wind Turbines Collapsing & Combusting Around the World
*** The number of cases involving turbines collapsing, self immolating or throwing their blades to the four winds (aka “component liberation”) has become so common that, if we were a tad cynical, we would go so far to suggest the possibility of some kind of pattern, along the lines proffered by Mr Bond’s nemesis, Goldfinger: … Continue reading Wind Farm Mass Attack: Wind Turbines Collapsing & Combusting Around the World
Wind Power Battery Storage Myth Battered: Total Annual Global Battery Production Would Power Germany for 30 Minutes
*** Wind industry hucksters, and their wind worshipping political enablers, like Josh Frydenberg, continue to chant the ‘battery technology is rapidly improving’ mantra, as if truckloads of giant batteries will soon magically rain down from heaven; and, thereby, save the wind industry from its imminent and inevitable demise. Not only is there NO grid-scale storage … Continue reading Wind Power Battery Storage Myth Battered: Total Annual Global Battery Production Would Power Germany for 30 Minutes

Wind Power Sends German Power Prices Rocketing as CO2 Emissions Continue to Rise
Germany has long been the poster-child for the wind-cult, the World over. But the way things have panned out, wind worshippers will soon need another pin-up girl. The cost of its maniacal rush into massively subsidised wind and solar to German businesses and households has been astronomical and, in the mother of all ironies, CO2 … Continue reading Wind Power Sends German Power Prices Rocketing as CO2 Emissions Continue to Rise
Germany’s ‘Energiewende’ Close to Kaput: Wind Power Fails to Deliver
More Headaches Than Power: Germany’s Wind Energy Fails To Deliver! “Energiewende Finished?” No Tricks Zone Pierre Gosselin 18 September 2016 The greatest obstacle to wind energy is its unreliable, weather-dependent supply. If the wind stops blowing, then it’s lights out! Yet, proponents often claim the solution is offshore, for example out in the tempestuous North … Continue reading Germany’s ‘Energiewende’ Close to Kaput: Wind Power Fails to Deliver
