Routine power rationing (aka ‘demand management’) and statewide blackouts are the natural consequence of attempting to run on sunshine and breezes. There is not a single example, anywhere in the world, of a country or state that runs exclusively on wind and solar. Those pretending to do so are now smacking headlong into a reality … Continue reading Brace For Blackouts: Wind & Solar Transition Promise Dimly Lit Misery

Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Rage Against Communities Saving the Environment
The wind industry’s social licence looks increasingly like a licence to destroy everything in its path, including prosperous rural communities and precious ecosystems. Wiping out huge tracts of pristine forests - habitat to rare and endangered critters of all kinds - and slicing and dicing avian predators, like hawks, falcons and eagles and bats is … Continue reading Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Rage Against Communities Saving the Environment
Litigation Only Way to Protect Communities & Environments From Wind Turbine Rollout
Holding hands and waving placards just doesn’t cut it. If you want to protect the environment or your community from the industrial wind power onslaught, then litigate. In this post, we contrast a community off the coast of New South Wales, Australia where a rally of surfers gathered to stave off the threat of an … Continue reading Litigation Only Way to Protect Communities & Environments From Wind Turbine Rollout
Hostility Mounts: Offshore Wind Power Disaster Attracts Serious Onshore Opposition
There’s no real argument in favour of offshore wind power, and plenty of serious arguments against. Start with the absolutely staggering cost, which has major proponents demanding even greater subsidies from taxpayers and/or higher prices in the guaranteed power contracts they ink with governments. With governments increasingly refusing to play ball, proponents are simply dropping … Continue reading Hostility Mounts: Offshore Wind Power Disaster Attracts Serious Onshore Opposition
Australians Pay Colossal Price For Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Power Prices Jump 25-30%
In another, ‘we told you so’ moment, retail power prices in Australia will jump by 20% to 30% in June, following annual, double-digit increases every year, for the best part of a decade (see above). $60 billion in subsidies (so far) to chaotically intermittent wind and solar was designed to wreck our conventional coal-fired power … Continue reading Australians Pay Colossal Price For Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Power Prices Jump 25-30%
Power Policy Hijacked: Renewable Energy Rent Seekers Holding Power Consumers Hostage
A slavish obsession with intermittent wind and solar has reliably delivered unreliable power and rocketing power prices. The politics of power has been taken out of the hands of voters and is now firmly in the grasp of cashed-up rent seekers - hell-bent on parachuting their own pet candidates into green-tinged seats, across the … Continue reading Power Policy Hijacked: Renewable Energy Rent Seekers Holding Power Consumers Hostage
Wind & Solar Scam Always and Everywhere About Massive & Endless Subsidies
Wind and solar don’t run on sunshine and breezes, they’re powered by massive and endless subsidies. Remove the subsidies and both so-called ‘industries’ would disappear in a heartbeat. The perpetual claims about wind and solar competing with dispatchable generation sources, such as coal, gas and nuclear, ring hollow when talk turns to reducing the … Continue reading Wind & Solar Scam Always and Everywhere About Massive & Endless Subsidies
Society Wreckers: Renewable Energy Cult Determined to Destroy Industry Wealth & Jobs
Crawling out of a post Covid economic wasteland, requires getting industry and business back on their feet, which in turn requires reliable and affordable electricity, delivered whatever the weather. But that approach would require tapping into our good friends, logic and reason. In the Australian state of New South Wales, logic was tortured to death … Continue reading Society Wreckers: Renewable Energy Cult Determined to Destroy Industry Wealth & Jobs
Australian Power Prices Set to Surge With Interconnector To Wind/Solar ‘Powered’ South Australia
A maniacal reliance on chaotically intermittent wind and solar poses an existential threat to Australia’s power grid. And Australia's power problems have absolutely nothing to do with the grid itself. Depicted above – courtesy of Aneroid Energy – is the output delivered by Australian wind power outfits to the Eastern Grid during July. Spread from Far North … Continue reading Australian Power Prices Set to Surge With Interconnector To Wind/Solar ‘Powered’ South Australia
Suicidal Tendencies: Australia’s Energy Policy Designed to Destroy Industry, Business & Jobs
Even before the coronavirus lockdowns, Australian business was under threat from rocketing power prices and an unreliable supply, thanks an obsession with subsidised wind and solar. At a time when every industry and business is looking for some sign of sense and reason from policymakers, instead of delivering a raft of policies that just … Continue reading Suicidal Tendencies: Australia’s Energy Policy Designed to Destroy Industry, Business & Jobs
