The environmental destruction caused by the offshore wind industry has completely flipped public opinion. The wanton destruction of marine habitats, fishing grounds and the wholesale slaughter of whales, dolphins and other marine mammals has drawn the same kind of attention that attracts people to multicar pileups. In this case, the characters responsible are easily identified … Continue reading Floating Offshore Wind Turbines – Next Great Financial & Environmental Disaster

Greenlight For Offshore Wind Industry’s Wholesale Environmental Destruction
The damage done by offshore wind farms to fishing grounds is met with practiced contempt by wind power outfits and malign indifference by their political enablers. Taking wind turbines out to sea not only escalates the cost of the occasional power they produce, it destroys coastal landscapes, birds and other marine life. And, as Robert Bradley explains below, spearing thousands of … Continue reading Greenlight For Offshore Wind Industry’s Wholesale Environmental Destruction
Offshore Wind Power Carries Colossal Cost and Delivers Zero Benefits
Never capable of delivering power on demand, offshore wind is as pointless as pushing on string. As the most expensive way of (occasionally) generating electricity, only the terminally insane would consider investing a nickel. Which is why rent-seekers rigged the game with massive subsidies, mandates and tax breaks from the get go. The value of … Continue reading Offshore Wind Power Carries Colossal Cost and Delivers Zero Benefits
Hurricane Havoc: Next Big Blow Set to Destroy America’s Offshore Wind Turbines
If brand-new offshore wind turbines are liberating their 100m blades and distributing their toxic entrails along the Atlantic coastline during perfectly calm weather, imagine what a blistering Hurricane might do to the tens of thousands of blades that now flap above the ocean waves. In the video above, a vicious little twister makes short work … Continue reading Hurricane Havoc: Next Big Blow Set to Destroy America’s Offshore Wind Turbines
No Joy In New Jersey: Power Bills Double (Again) In Wind Power Obsessed State
The good folk in New Jersey are just the latest victims of the grand renewable energy ‘transition’. Politicos have backed foreign-owned offshore wind power outfits ahead of local reliable generators and the results are spelt out in black-and-white, with record retail power bills. Retail power prices have doubled in a heartbeat and the socialists in … Continue reading No Joy In New Jersey: Power Bills Double (Again) In Wind Power Obsessed State
Furious Fishermen Stage Revolt Against Offshore Wind Industry
The offshore wind industry is facing the fury of fishermen determined to protect their fisheries, their livelihoods and the environment they live and work in. Along America’s Atlantic coast, fishermen of all shapes and sizes have turned on the offshore wind industry with an industrial scale fury. Right alongside them are those with a passionate … Continue reading Furious Fishermen Stage Revolt Against Offshore Wind Industry
Acoustic Rape: Why Wind Turbine Construction Noise Kills Whales
The relationship between offshore wind turbine construction noise and marine mammal fatalities is now incontrovertible: Wind Industry’s Wanton Whale Slaughter Caused by Constant Deafening Construction Noise The underwater cacophony created during offshore construction is laid out in Michael Shellenberger’s documentary Thrown To The Wind (see the video below) and this post: US Govt Lying About Offshore Wind … Continue reading Acoustic Rape: Why Wind Turbine Construction Noise Kills Whales
Terminal Decline: China’s Double-Headed Wind Turbine Signals Industry’s Last Gasp
The wind industry started out as absurd, and only became more so over time. The turbines became bigger, the blades longer and capacities went from piddling 1.5 MW machines to 18MW monsters - albeit so large they can barely stand up against stiff breezes, let alone a full-blown hurricane. As the blades grew, their habit … Continue reading Terminal Decline: China’s Double-Headed Wind Turbine Signals Industry’s Last Gasp
Peak Stupidity: Wind & Solar Transition Claims Beyond Comprehension
Once upon a time, those charged with delivering affordable power, as and when we needed it, were responsible, stoic and serious. These days, the energy domain has been overrun by a group of delusional zealots, who act as the spearhead for a band of cynical, billionaire rent-seekers. Politicos love them, and are always keen to … Continue reading Peak Stupidity: Wind & Solar Transition Claims Beyond Comprehension
Wind Industry’s Share Prices Plummet As More Offshore Wind Projects Get Scrapped
The wind industry’s financial misery is spreading like the toxic junk from disintegrating turbine blades that’s covering vast tracts of the Atlantic coastline. Once bullish forecasts for giant offshore wind turbine projects these days sound like suicide pacts involving other people’s money. Loose talk about mega-offshore projects has been replaced by massive and mounting losses … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Share Prices Plummet As More Offshore Wind Projects Get Scrapped
