For some strange reason, wind ‘powered’ Victoria and South Australia suffer wholesale prices around double what’s paid in coal-fired Queensland and NSW? Could it be that massively subsidised, intermittent and unreliable wind power has wrecked power markets in Daniel Andrew’s Victoria and Jay Weatherill’s SA? The graphic above appeared in The Australian, a few … Continue reading System Reboot Required: Undoing Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Disaster

SA Premier Promises to Double Power Prices & Destroy Grid: 75% RET = 100% Lunacy
Looking for an example of how to destroy an economy? Look no further than wind ‘powered’ South Australia. Where Australia’s other capital cities are growing so fast that they look like bursting, Adelaide’s population is shrinking; the best and brightest exit as fast their Commodores can carry them, leaving an ageing population and a … Continue reading SA Premier Promises to Double Power Prices & Destroy Grid: 75% RET = 100% Lunacy
Reaping the Whirlwind: Insane Cost of Renewables Destroying Jobs & Australia’s Economic Prosperity
Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity has a single, proximate cause: massively subsidised, intermittent, unreliable wind and solar power. The relationship is obvious to all but the deliberately obtuse and the rent-seekers that profit from it. Another obvious relationship is how Australia’s enviable wealth and economic prosperity depended upon reliable and affordable power supplies. Now … Continue reading Reaping the Whirlwind: Insane Cost of Renewables Destroying Jobs & Australia’s Economic Prosperity
Blackout Nation: Insane ‘Reliance’ on Wind Power Delivers Pure Power Chaos
Alcoholics call it a ‘moment of clarity’. In wind powered South Australia and Victoria, hitherto fans of renewables call it a ‘mass blackout’. In 1919, after Engineer/Soldier, Sir John Monash returned to his home town of Melbourne from the Western Front, to a hero’s welcome, he set about establishing an electricity grid that would serve … Continue reading Blackout Nation: Insane ‘Reliance’ on Wind Power Delivers Pure Power Chaos
Addicted to Other People’s Money: Wind Industry Howls Whenever Its Massive Subsidy Stream Threatened
Way back in 1984, wind cultist Christopher Flavin’s told us that “in a few years’ time wind energy will not need to be subsidised.” 34 years on, the subsidies just keep on flowing and, without those subsidies, the so called wind 'industry' would disappear like a snowflake in summer. No matter where they ply … Continue reading Addicted to Other People’s Money: Wind Industry Howls Whenever Its Massive Subsidy Stream Threatened
Slow Burn: Australia’s Renewable Energy Fiasco Causes Continued Economic Destruction – No End In Sight
The proof, as they say, is in the pudding. Following the various angles pitched up by the wind industry, its parasites and spruikers is like playing chess with a madman: it’s exciting, but you have absolutely no idea what move he’ll come up with next. Notwithstanding that Australia’s renewable energy wonderland, South Australia continues to … Continue reading Slow Burn: Australia’s Renewable Energy Fiasco Causes Continued Economic Destruction – No End In Sight
Frydenberg’s Renewable Energy Fantasyland: Australian Households & Businesses Despair as Energy Minister Remains Off with the Fairies
Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy disaster sometimes reads more like Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein – and on others like the work of a drug-addled Lewis Carrol, as he took us all down the rabbit hole with Alice & Co. Characters abound, bereft of worldy wit, prone to waffling nonsense and repeating the same hackneyed phrases (think … Continue reading Frydenberg’s Renewable Energy Fantasyland: Australian Households & Businesses Despair as Energy Minister Remains Off with the Fairies
Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity Proves Promise of Cheap Renewable Power a Cruel Hoax
Chasing the dream of cheap and reliable ‘clean/green’ wind and solar power has turned out more like an LSD-fuelled Unicorn hunt. Any idiot can make a promise, but delivering is altogether another matter. The wind industry and its few remaining champions keep telling us that, one day soon, magical forces will align and power prices … Continue reading Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity Proves Promise of Cheap Renewable Power a Cruel Hoax
Desperate Measures: Renewables Rush Leaves Australians Scrambling for Reliable Power
Act in haste, repent at your leisure: Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy fiasco has sent power prices through the roof and all but destroyed its once reliable power supplies. Over our Southern Summer, grid managers have been tearing their hair out, as they attempt to keep the lights on in South Australia, Victoria and New South … Continue reading Desperate Measures: Renewables Rush Leaves Australians Scrambling for Reliable Power
Rescuing South Australia from its Self-Inflicted Renewable Disaster Costs Taxpayers $550m
Desperation is a stinky cologne and South Australia’s vapid Premier, Jay Weatherill is drenched in it. With an election in March, and terrified that another wind power output collapse will deliver another mass load shedding event or statewide blackout, Weatherill plugged into a mega-battery supplied by Elon Musk for a cool $150 million, that … Continue reading Rescuing South Australia from its Self-Inflicted Renewable Disaster Costs Taxpayers $550m
