Part-time power is worse than having no power at all: our industrial heartbeat and the timing of daily chores hasn’t been dictated by the weather for more than a century. Harnessing thermal power set us on the road to the modern, ordered and (largely) civil society we presently enjoy. For a refresher course Google up … Continue reading Intermittent Wind & Solar Power No Match For Around-the-Clock Nuclear Power

Game Changer: Bill Gates Backs Safe & Reliable Next Generation Nuclear Power Plants
When the world’s richest entrepreneur says wind and solar will never work, and backs nuclear instead, it’s probably time to listen. Bill Gates made a fortune applying common sense to the untapped market of home computing. The meme has it that IBM’s CEO believed there was only a market for five computers in the entire world. Gates … Continue reading Game Changer: Bill Gates Backs Safe & Reliable Next Generation Nuclear Power Plants
Nuclear Waste: Nothing Like the Problem Imagined by Anti-Nuke Squad
Nuclear power is the only stand-alone generation system that does not emit carbon dioxide gas during the process. And it works - 24 x 7, whatever the weather. Which is one reason why wind and solar rent seekers hate it. Beat ups about the risks from radiation and nuclear-nonevents - such as the damage suffered … Continue reading Nuclear Waste: Nothing Like the Problem Imagined by Anti-Nuke Squad
Nuclear Renaissance: Looming Net-Zero Targets Driving Uranium Miners’ Share Price Surge
Share prices in uranium miners are on the rise, much to the horror of the wind and solar ‘industries’. Despite efforts of the wind and solar cult to unwind nuclear power in Germany, and elsewhere, the recent share market surge suggests there’s a resurgence of interest in uranium miners - share prices in one Australian … Continue reading Nuclear Renaissance: Looming Net-Zero Targets Driving Uranium Miners’ Share Price Surge
Nuclear Power: Quite Simply the World’s Cleanest & Safest Power Generation System
The profiteers that wallow in the subsidies for unreliable and intermittent wind and solar hate nuclear, principally because it works, 24x365, irrespective of the weather or time-of-day. Nuclear power is the only stand-alone power generation source that does not emit carbon dioxide gas during the process. And by reference to the amount of power it … Continue reading Nuclear Power: Quite Simply the World’s Cleanest & Safest Power Generation System
Atomic Alternative: Nuclear Power Only Pathway to Net-Zero Emissions
Householders, businesses, indeed, power consumers of all shapes and sizes are bracing themselves for the suicidal results of looming Net-Zero CO2 emissions targets. We’ll start from the premise that nothing will shake the resolve of the lunatics who pretend to govern us, when it comes to their do or die quest for reducing man-made emissions … Continue reading Atomic Alternative: Nuclear Power Only Pathway to Net-Zero Emissions
Arrested Development: Without Nuclear Power ‘Net-Zero’ Emissions Targets Are An Economic Suicide Pact
Every advance made by humankind can trace its roots to the control and use of energy. The Industrial Revolution wasn’t powered by wood, nor was the rapid rise of the East Asian economies, over the last generation. Smug in their seemingly dominant prosperity, the leaders of Western nations are bidding to outdo each other in … Continue reading Arrested Development: Without Nuclear Power ‘Net-Zero’ Emissions Targets Are An Economic Suicide Pact
Cost Cover-up: German Government Hiding Massive Cost of Wind & Solar Subsidies
German power consumers now suffer Europe’s highest power prices, thanks to massive subsidies to unreliable wind and solar. With hundreds of thousands of households no longer able to afford power, and energy hungry, high-tech businesses shifting their operations to places like Singapore - where power is a tiny fraction of the cost - Germany’s renewables … Continue reading Cost Cover-up: German Government Hiding Massive Cost of Wind & Solar Subsidies
Get On With It: Australia’s Renewable Energy Calamity Screaming Out for Nuclear Power
In the midst of a RE-driven power pricing and supply calamity, the only thing worse than talking about nuclear energy, is not talking about nuclear energy. Australia has never had a nuclear power plant, and in 1998 placed an outright ban on nuclear power generation. Which seems a trifle odd, given Australia is the world’s … Continue reading Get On With It: Australia’s Renewable Energy Calamity Screaming Out for Nuclear Power
Growth Engines: Coal and Nuclear Powering China’s Economic Rise & Global Ambitions
No country ever got rich without abundant supplies of affordable energy. It’s all very well for the well-fed, smug and pompous to lecture others about the virtues of wind and solar. But when you’re dragging hundreds of millions out of agrarian poverty, virtue signalling runs a very poor second. And, so it is, with China. … Continue reading Growth Engines: Coal and Nuclear Powering China’s Economic Rise & Global Ambitions
