Exorbitant ‘Green’ Energy Costs Responsible For German Industry’s Economic Meltdown

The rocketing power prices caused by Germany’s headlong wind and solar rush are crushing its once thriving industries, including outfits like Mercedes-Benz. German households and businesses are already suffering Europe’s highest power prices; following Putin’s assault on Ukraine, German power prices rocketed, further still, hitting a record 40 US cents per kWh. Power rationing is already … Continue reading Exorbitant ‘Green’ Energy Costs Responsible For German Industry’s Economic Meltdown

Propaganda Flip: Renewables Cult Claim They Never Said Wind & Solar Would Be Cheap

The wind and solar industries are struggling to win the hearts and minds of householders and businesses being belted by skyrocketing power prices. Built on lies and run on subsidies, it comes as no surprise that the truth about heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar would eventually work its way to the surface. … Continue reading Propaganda Flip: Renewables Cult Claim They Never Said Wind & Solar Would Be Cheap

Shredded: Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Economy-Crushing Power Prices

Subsidised wind and solar are driving power prices into orbit and whole industries into bankruptcy around the globe. Australia, is no exception. When wind and solar acolytes start talking about ‘cheap renewables’ powering a manufacturing renaissance you know you really are dealing with a deranged cult. Heading up the cult in Australia is the PM, … Continue reading Shredded: Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Economy-Crushing Power Prices

Occasional Wind & Solar Generation Guarantee Staggering Backup Costs

Sunset kills solar output the same way calm weather renders wind turbines utterly useless. Around the world $trillions have been squandered on occasional power generation which is always and everywhere dependent on sunshine and/or the weather. In the beginning, there was a perfectly functional power supply with reliable generators connected by a systematically designed grid … Continue reading Occasional Wind & Solar Generation Guarantee Staggering Backup Costs

Uncontrollable Surge: Daytime Solar Output Swamps Grid & Wrecks Power Market

The chaos that’s wrecking our power supplies is what happens when engineers are replaced by ideologues. Long on cultish mantras about the ‘inevitable transition’ and the wonders of ‘free wind and solar energy’, but short on maths, physics and economics, the clowns in charge of our power supplies would have been charged with treason, not … Continue reading Uncontrollable Surge: Daytime Solar Output Swamps Grid & Wrecks Power Market

Simply Staggering: Power Users Bear The True Cost of Subsidised Wind and Solar

Every state or country that ramps up wind and solar capacity ends up with rocketing power prices and an unreliable grid - no exceptions. Press members of the wind and sun cult for an example of the alternative outcome and they’ll quickly deflect and change the subject, keep pressing and then you’ll get ranting about … Continue reading Simply Staggering: Power Users Bear The True Cost of Subsidised Wind and Solar

Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices

As night follows day, adding more wind and solar capacity inevitably results in rocketing power prices. The hard numbers say it all. China enjoys the world’s lowest power prices, thanks to cheap, abundant and reliable coal-fired power. Adding to their advantage, China is building dozens of new coal-fired and nuclear powered plants. It’s almost as … Continue reading Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices

No Care & No Responsibility: Massive Subsidies Only Reason Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Exist

Sun’s up, wind’s blowing and wind and solar power is flowing. Wind drops, Sun sets and you’re on your own. The so-called wind and solar ‘industries’ couldn’t care less whether you’re left freezing in the dark. Your power supply is somebody else’s problem. In this three-part essay, Edward A Reid Jr targets the unhealthy relationship … Continue reading No Care & No Responsibility: Massive Subsidies Only Reason Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Exist

California’s Wind & Solar Calamity: Power Prices Rocketing Out of Control

There’s no mystery as to why California suffers the highest prices and routine load shedding and blackouts: in 2018, California had 80 GW of installed generation capacity encompassing more than 1,500 power plants; with 41 GW of natural gas, 26.5 GW of ‘renewables’ (12 GW solar, 6 GW wind), 12 GW of large hydroelectric, and … Continue reading California’s Wind & Solar Calamity: Power Prices Rocketing Out of Control

Want Perpetual Chaos & Grinding Energy Poverty: Dial Up Subsidised Wind & Solar

The wind and solar ‘transition’ has nothing to do with providing reliable and affordable power. It’s a wealth transfer from power consumers and taxpayers to rent seekers - driven by ideologues and enabled by politicos who wouldn’t know a kilowatt from their elbow. Australia’s Eastern Grid is a heartbeat away from total collapse. Once upon … Continue reading Want Perpetual Chaos & Grinding Energy Poverty: Dial Up Subsidised Wind & Solar
