Intermittent wind and solar are a guarantee of rocketing power prices and rocketing power prices are a guarantee of economic destruction. An energy-hungry world will never satisfy its needs by pinning consumers’ hopes on the weather. But that’s the model that our political betters have been pushing over the last 20 years. How we landed … Continue reading Subsidised Suicide: Unreliable Wind & Solar Guarantee Economic Self-Destruction

Power Price Shock: Australia’s Renewables Disaster Proves Wind & Solar Ain’t Cheap
In a weather-dependent energy world, those lucky enough to get power when they need it are being forced to pay a king’s ransom for it. Having championed the use of tens of $billions in subsidies to destroy the coal-fired generators that gave Australia its reliable and affordable power supply, Australia’s new Federal Labor government is … Continue reading Power Price Shock: Australia’s Renewables Disaster Proves Wind & Solar Ain’t Cheap
Ingrained Insanity: Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Disaster Leaves Australians Powerless
Australia is yet another perfect example of how to trash a power supply with heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Germany, California and Texas led the charge and Australia’s so-called renewable energy capital, South Australia was amongst the front runners. SA set the tone with Australia's first statewide blackout - during a spring … Continue reading Ingrained Insanity: Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Disaster Leaves Australians Powerless
Blackout Nation: Australians Latest Victims of Subsidised Wind & Solar Chaos
That Australia’s Eastern Grid is on the brink of collapse with a complete ‘system black’ on the cards comes as no surprise. The $7 billion in annual RET subsidies pocketed by wind and solar generators were designed to allow them to underbid Australia’s reliable and affordable coal-fired generators, destroying their profitability and, ultimately, driving them … Continue reading Blackout Nation: Australians Latest Victims of Subsidised Wind & Solar Chaos
Biden’s Big Fat Lie: Wind & Solar Doesn’t Save Money – It’s 4-6 Times MORE Expensive
Those countries out to rely on wind and solar inevitably suffer rocketing power prices and power rationing. Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy calamity has seen power prices double in a matter of months; the wholesale power market is in chaos, caused by rapid and total collapses in wind and solar output; and major energy users are … Continue reading Biden’s Big Fat Lie: Wind & Solar Doesn’t Save Money – It’s 4-6 Times MORE Expensive
Panic Stations: Daily Wind & Solar Shortfalls Threaten Australia’s Entire Electricity Grid
Subsidised and intermittent wind and solar infiltrate and destroy power grids like an aggressive cancer. But, unlike cancer, the cause of Australia’s power pricing and supply debacle is precisely known, and was as perfectly predictable, as it was perfectly avoidable. The massive subsidies to wind and solar were deliberately designed to knock reliable and affordable … Continue reading Panic Stations: Daily Wind & Solar Shortfalls Threaten Australia’s Entire Electricity Grid
Wind Power: The Complete Joke That Just Isn’t Funny Anymore
If it were only intended as a joke, wind power would be hilarious. However, the power pricing and supply calamity that follows any attempt to rely on sunshine and breezes tend to sober things up. Random 3,000 to 4,000 MW wind power output collapses are at the heart of Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy debacle. The … Continue reading Wind Power: The Complete Joke That Just Isn’t Funny Anymore
Wind Power Output Collapses Driving Wholesale Power Market Chaos
Random 3,000 to 4,000 MW wind power output collapses at the heart of Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity. In a, don’t say we told you so moment, Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy chickens are coming home to roost. Power rationing is now routine and power prices are soaring out of control. What's depicted above – courtesy … Continue reading Wind Power Output Collapses Driving Wholesale Power Market Chaos
Renewable Energy Delusion: Counting Staggering Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
The notion that we’ll soon be exclusively powered by wind and solar is an appalling delusion, but one which comes with a staggering price tag. Sure, the wind and sun are free, but attempting to rely upon chaotically generated wind and solar power is an altogether different prospect. Adding wind turbines and solar panels to … Continue reading Renewable Energy Delusion: Counting Staggering Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
Power Cuts & Rocketing Prices All Part of Australia’s Wonderful Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
Australians are getting a bitter taste of their ‘inevitable’ renewable energy transition: power rationing and rocketing power prices. What’s depicted above is the weather-dependent power generation chaos at the heart of Australia’s renewable energy-driven power pricing and supply calamity. The dismal data – courtesy of Aneroid Energy – is the output delivered by Australian wind … Continue reading Power Cuts & Rocketing Prices All Part of Australia’s Wonderful Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
