Electricity is one of those things that is only fully appreciated when a hopeful user is deprived of it. Across Europe, the cultlike fixation on wind and solar has provided precisely the environment in which households and businesses are coming to sense just how important having power as and when they need it, really is. … Continue reading Bitter Reality: Unreliable Renewables Will See Germans Freezing In The Dark This Winter

Reliable, Safe & Affordable: Small Modular Reactors Set to Deliver Real Energy Transition
With Europe’s renewable energy disaster laid bare for all to see, the focus is now on “real energy” - power that’s available 24 x 7, irrespective of the weather and where the Sun sits in the sky. For fairly obvious reasons, the Small Modular Reactor has captured the imagination of power-starved Europeans, with two key … Continue reading Reliable, Safe & Affordable: Small Modular Reactors Set to Deliver Real Energy Transition
Renewables Rejected: Germans Embrace Nuclear Power Like Their Lives Depend On It
Apparently, Germans are not looking forward to a winter sitting freezing in the dark when the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. One 'plan' is to encourage energy-starved Germans to bunch up in commonly heated exhibition halls to prevent them from freezing to death when temperatures plummet. The (hopeful) German power consumer is, quite rightly, unamused. … Continue reading Renewables Rejected: Germans Embrace Nuclear Power Like Their Lives Depend On It
Mystery Solved: Unreliable Wind & Solar Primary Reason For Rocketing Power Prices
That heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar are driving power prices into orbit has been proved beyond all reasonable doubt. No country that ‘invested’ in the unreliables (ie threw $millions in subsidies at wind and solar) has ever seen their retail power prices fall. No, the evidence on that score is all to … Continue reading Mystery Solved: Unreliable Wind & Solar Primary Reason For Rocketing Power Prices
Transition to Poverty: Britain Being Crushed By Staggering Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
What does the ‘inevitable’ wind and solar transition look like? Try power-starved Britain, where power prices are out of control, with much, much worse to come. Last October, the average annual energy bill was £1,400 ($2,400). Energy industry analyst Cornwall Insight forecasts that the British price cap will skyrocket and the average annual bill will … Continue reading Transition to Poverty: Britain Being Crushed By Staggering Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
SMR’s Big Future: Micro Reactors Offer Macro Solution to Wind & Solar Power Supply Chaos
For the future of small modular nuclear reactors, it pays to look to the present: 200 small nuclear reactors are presently powering 160 ships and submarines all around the world, and have been for decades. The wind and solar cult, however, continue with the mantra that SMRs are a pipe dream, cooked up by conservative reactionaries, doggedly … Continue reading SMR’s Big Future: Micro Reactors Offer Macro Solution to Wind & Solar Power Supply Chaos
Utopian Fantasyland: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Total Delusion Being Sold By Total Fools
The West’s obsession with the unreliables, wind and solar was guaranteed to end in tears - the weather-driven power rationing and rocketing power prices were as perfectly predictable, as they were perfectly avoidable. Every country that has hitched its energy future to sunshine and breezes is facing both a power pricing and supply calamity. Wind … Continue reading Utopian Fantasyland: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Total Delusion Being Sold By Total Fools
Time to Ditch Meaningless Medieval Wind Power & Embrace Modern Nuclear Power
Wind power was abandoned centuries ago, for pretty obvious reasons, known to kite flyers and sailors, since the beginning of time. Sure, in medieval times, when there was no alternative, harnessing nature’s energy make sense. But not now. It was coal that dragged Europe out of the Dark Ages, by providing around-the-clock power, not windmills. … Continue reading Time to Ditch Meaningless Medieval Wind Power & Embrace Modern Nuclear Power
Nuclear Renaissance Heralds Immortal Age of Safe, Reliable & Affordable Power
Nuclear power isn’t expensive: the nuclear-powered French pay around half what wind and solar-powered Danes and Germans do (see above). And the French don’t suffer the power rationing and blackouts their German neighbours do, when the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. Indeed, it’s nuclear power from France and coal-fired power from Poland that … Continue reading Nuclear Renaissance Heralds Immortal Age of Safe, Reliable & Affordable Power
Net-Zero Targets Obsession Guaranteed to Destroy Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies
The failure to advance nuclear power in this country to replace coal-fired plants being driven out of business by massive subsidies to wind and solar beggars belief. Everyone with half a brain is alive to the fact that chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar are responsible for Australia's power pricing and supply calamity Australian households … Continue reading Net-Zero Targets Obsession Guaranteed to Destroy Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies
