Often wrong, never in doubt, the mainstream press is responsible for the idea that we’re well on our way to an all wind and sun powered future. The need for massive and endless subsidies is ignored; and the chaotic intermittency of wind and solar, brushed aside with waffle about mega-batteries saving the day. The mainstream … Continue reading Red Faces: Mainstream Journos Quietly Drop Support For Intermittent Wind & Solar

Crunch Time: Australia’s Renewable Energy Rent-Seekers Suicidal After Coalition Victory
The ‘shock’ Federal election result has left RE energy rent seekers reeling. What was meant to be a Green/Labor landslide - with the promise that subsidies to wind and solar would double and be extended until kingdom come - returned not only the Liberal/National Coalition to power, but left the Energy Minister, Angus Taylor … Continue reading Crunch Time: Australia’s Renewable Energy Rent-Seekers Suicidal After Coalition Victory

Bill Shorten’s ALP: Loves Subsidising Chaotic Wind & Solar/Hates Real Industry & Real Jobs
Australia was once an energy superpower, supporting mining, mineral processing, manufacturing and energy-intensive agriculture (think irrigators, dairies, aquaculture and horticulture). Pretty soon, if Bill Shorten’s Labor Party gets anywhere near the controls, power prices will be driven to astronomical levels and those industries driven out of existence. Hundreds of thousands of well-paid, meaningful jobs … Continue reading Bill Shorten’s ALP: Loves Subsidising Chaotic Wind & Solar/Hates Real Industry & Real Jobs
Labor Lunacy: Industry Wipeout Looms as Bill Shorten Doubles-down on Wind & Solar Insanity
Labor - aka the ‘Workers Party’ - is determined to destroy whole industries and thousands of jobs with a 50% RET and a giant ‘carbon’ tax. Australian industry has been a protected species since the Victorian gold rush in the 1850s, cosseted behind an insurmountable wall of tariffs and propped up with subsidies. As … Continue reading Labor Lunacy: Industry Wipeout Looms as Bill Shorten Doubles-down on Wind & Solar Insanity
Powering Australia: Keeping the Lights On Means Coal-Fired Power For Generations to Come
Australia is in the process of destroying what was the world’s most reliable and affordable power supply. The destruction is all down to heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Meanwhile, our major Asian trading partners, China and Japan are chewing up Australian coal and uranium as fast as we can ship it - … Continue reading Powering Australia: Keeping the Lights On Means Coal-Fired Power For Generations to Come
Mortal Enemy: New Energy Minister – Angus Taylor Spells Doom for Subsidised Wind & Solar
The wind and solar industries are built on lies and fuelled by subsidies. Angus Taylor is alive to the former and focused on ending the latter. Barely a month into the job, for some reason, the very mention of Angus Taylor sends renewable energy rent seekers into a state of apoplexy. One reason could … Continue reading Mortal Enemy: New Energy Minister – Angus Taylor Spells Doom for Subsidised Wind & Solar
Renewable Energy Zealots Furious: Australia’s New PM Determined to Slash Wind & Solar Subsidies and Exit Paris Climate ‘Deal’
Ever rocketing power prices were what scuttled Australia’s suicidal renewable energy policies. The National Energy Guarantee was an effort to expand (exponentially) and extend (indefinitely) Australia’s already crippling Large-Scale Renewable Energy Target. A mixture of hubris and overreach by those championing the NEG - which included the ex-PM (we seem to recall his name was … Continue reading Renewable Energy Zealots Furious: Australia’s New PM Determined to Slash Wind & Solar Subsidies and Exit Paris Climate ‘Deal’
End of Days: Rocketing Power Prices Spells Armageddon for Subsidised Wind & Solar
Malcolm Turnbull’s downfall resulted from stratospheric power prices, sent into orbit by unreliable and intermittent wind and solar. His fate was sealed when he started spinning the line that his National Energy Guarantee (which would have effectively doubled wind and solar capacity) would result in power being delivered at 1970s prices. The same line is … Continue reading End of Days: Rocketing Power Prices Spells Armageddon for Subsidised Wind & Solar
New PM’s Top Priority: Morrison Must Slash Subsidies to Intermittent Wind & Solar, Right Now
New PM, Scott Morrison must slash subsidies to renewables now to tame the 40 rebel MPs who crushed wind and solar obsessed Malcolm Turnbull. The 40 MPs who forced Turnbull to walk the plank, will do exactly the same to Morrison if he fails to arrest Australia’s out-of-control energy crisis, starting right now. Morrison’s … Continue reading New PM’s Top Priority: Morrison Must Slash Subsidies to Intermittent Wind & Solar, Right Now
