If you’re reading this in Australia, you’re doing so thanks to coal. You might be doing so thanks to nuclear power, but for the fact that the idiots that govern us banned it, years ago. Talk about wind and solar replacing conventional generation is just that. Talk. The dividend from Australia’s obsession with wind and … Continue reading Nuclear Power: Australia’s Happy to Sell it to the World – But Allergic to Using It

New Age Nuclear Needed Now: Why Costly & Intermittent Renewables Can’t Save the Planet
Anyone still banging on about CO2 emissions in the electricity generation sector, ought to be banging on about nothing other than nuclear power. Nuclear power is the only, stand-alone generation source that can deliver reliable, affordable power without generating CO2 gas, in the process. The fact that politicians in this Country talk about anything … Continue reading New Age Nuclear Needed Now: Why Costly & Intermittent Renewables Can’t Save the Planet
Wind & Solar Reality Check: Why Intermittent & Unreliable Renewables Can’t Save the Planet
There’s only one problem with intermittent wind and solar, at scale they’ve never worked and never will. Sure, powering an isolated farm house or pumping water for livestock with a few solar panels makes practical and economic sense. But that’s not what’s being rammed down our throats, and massively subsidised at our expense, at the … Continue reading Wind & Solar Reality Check: Why Intermittent & Unreliable Renewables Can’t Save the Planet
No Contest: Intermittent Subsidised Wind & Solar Most Expensive Electricity of All
Sunset and calm weather mean that wind and solar don’t compete with coal, gas or nuclear power, but that doesn’t stop pointless cost comparisons. Electricity generated when you don’t need it, is worthless - and wind or solar power that you can't get, just when you need it most, can't be bought at any price. … Continue reading No Contest: Intermittent Subsidised Wind & Solar Most Expensive Electricity of All
Nuclear Power Works: That’s Why The Wind & Solar Industries Hate It So Much
Only the most delusional climate alarmist still believes that wind and solar power can help in their global crusade against carbon dioxide gas. As we have said repeatedly, nuclear power is the only stand-alone power generation source which is capable of delivering power on demand, without CO2 emissions being generated in the process. Perversely, notwithstanding … Continue reading Nuclear Power Works: That’s Why The Wind & Solar Industries Hate It So Much
Minnesota Madness: Big Freeze Exposes Wind & Solar’s Deadly Flaw – Hopeless Intermittency
Power consumers pinning their hopes on the weather, inevitably learn to expect mixed results. 200,000 Victorian businesses and households learnt the hard way, as a sudden wind power output collapse left them sweltering during a summer heatwave. At the other end of the temperature spectrum, the risk of being powerless is even more serious. The … Continue reading Minnesota Madness: Big Freeze Exposes Wind & Solar’s Deadly Flaw – Hopeless Intermittency
Germany’s Renewable Energy Fail: German CO2 Emissions 10 Times Higher than Nuclear-Powered France
The meme has it that wind and solar are all about slashing CO2 emissions, whereas that pathetic pair are just a colossal moneymaking scam. Apart from South Australia, no country other than Germany threw more at chaotically intermittent wind and solar. The results have been an utter debacle: Germans suffer the second highest power prices … Continue reading Germany’s Renewable Energy Fail: German CO2 Emissions 10 Times Higher than Nuclear-Powered France
People Power: Taiwanese Trump Renewables With Landslide Vote For Nuclear Power
One hackneyed myth is that the proletariat will never vote in favour of nuclear power. The Taiwanese just put paid to that, with a landslide victory for common sense and reason. Over the last decade or so, the wind industry has attempted to get its claws into Taiwan, with mixed results. In June, Taiwan’s anti-nuclear … Continue reading People Power: Taiwanese Trump Renewables With Landslide Vote For Nuclear Power
Digging It: Nuclear Power the Obvious Solution For Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Crisis
The dividend from Australia’s obsession with wind and solar is rocketing power prices and a grid on the brink of collapse. This summer, mass load shedding events are guaranteed, although those responsible for Soviet-era power rationing - the new 'normal' in what was once an energy superpower - are trained to refer to it … Continue reading Digging It: Nuclear Power the Obvious Solution For Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Crisis
Climate Alarmism Meets Energy Realism: Climate Scientists Reject Wind & Solar & Demand Nuclear Powered Future
In the climate alarmists’ worldwide crusade against carbon dioxide gas, only the most delusional still believe that wind and solar power add anything to their arsenal. As we have said repeatedly, nuclear power is the only stand-alone power generation source which is capable of delivering power on demand, without CO2 emissions being generated in the … Continue reading Climate Alarmism Meets Energy Realism: Climate Scientists Reject Wind & Solar & Demand Nuclear Powered Future
