Inevitable Transition: Why Intermittent Wind Power Drives Power Prices Through The Roof
Every country attempting to run on wind and solar suffers rocketing power prices; no exception. In Britain, power prices jumped 50%, overnight, when a legislated price cap was lifted; and power prices continue to rise at an astonishing rate. Subsidised wind power is at the heart of Britain’s power pricing and supply calamity. Pete North … Continue reading Inevitable Transition: Why Intermittent Wind Power Drives Power Prices Through The Roof
Wind & Solar Subsidies: High Time To End The Never-Ending Story of Wasted $Billions
Death and taxes are certainties, so too the wind and solar industry’s critical dependence on massive and endless subsidies. Those pushing wind and solar keep telling us that the power they produce is ‘free’ and getting cheaper all the time. Every so often, rent seekers and their political enablers are faced with the retort that, … Continue reading Wind & Solar Subsidies: High Time To End The Never-Ending Story of Wasted $Billions
RE Bites Back: Europe’s Wind Turbine Makers Can’t Compete With Coal-Powered China
Victims of their own success, Europe’s wind turbine makers are being crushed by rocketing power prices - caused by reliance on intermittent wind and solar. Oh, the irony... The staggering surge in European energy costs has rendered them unable to compete with Chinese manufacturers, whose operations benefit from abundant supplies of nuclear and coal-fired power. … Continue reading RE Bites Back: Europe’s Wind Turbine Makers Can’t Compete With Coal-Powered China
No Nonsense Solution: Nuclear Ultimate Answer to Powering an Energy Hungry World
Nothing focuses thinking on energy policy like not having heat, light and power on tap. With Europe now hostage to its aggressive Eastern neighbour - thanks to a maniacal obsession with intermittent wind and solar and the need to back it up with oil and gas - policy wonks of all descriptions have started talking … Continue reading No Nonsense Solution: Nuclear Ultimate Answer to Powering an Energy Hungry World
Green Dream Delivers Daily Reality: Power Rationing, Blackouts & Rocketing Power Bills
In the fantasy land occupied by green dreamers, the wind is always blowing and the sun is always shining. Not for them the reality of sunset and calm weather. It’s their truth, and they’re sticking with it. Destabilising grids and power markets, chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar may be beloved of crony … Continue reading Green Dream Delivers Daily Reality: Power Rationing, Blackouts & Rocketing Power Bills
Filthy Rich Get To Soak In Massive Solar Subsidies – While The Poor Get Nothing
The adage about those who already have getting even more is clearly at work with the virtue-signalling beneficiaries of solar power subsidies. Sure, you don’t have to be a dotcom billionaire to have a house covered in shiny panels, but the bigger the pad, the bigger the burden on the taxpayers who foot the bill. … Continue reading Filthy Rich Get To Soak In Massive Solar Subsidies – While The Poor Get Nothing
Power Price Punishment: Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar Killing Productive Industry & Enterprise
Reliance on intermittent wind and solar guarantees rocketing power prices and chaotic supply. Price spikes and/or power rationing when the sun sets or calm weather sets in are the death knell for a range of energy-hungry businesses and industries. Manufacturing and mineral processing are usually the first to disappear, when the true costs of running … Continue reading Power Price Punishment: Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar Killing Productive Industry & Enterprise
Completely Clueless: How Idiots Hijacked Our Reliable & Affordable Energy Supplies
Death and taxes are guaranteed, so are rocketing power prices and power rationing once intermittent wind and solar are added to the grid. Duplicating capital costs to destabilise and undermine a generating system that works, with one that only ‘works’ when the wind is blowing just right and the sun is shining in a cloudless … Continue reading Completely Clueless: How Idiots Hijacked Our Reliable & Affordable Energy Supplies
Energy Insecurity: Biden’s Policies Leave Americans Vulnerable to Unreliable Wind & Solar
With the magnitude of the renewable energy-driven disaster playing out in Europe hard to ignore, it seems incredible that American Green New Deal Democrats remain fixated on chaotically intermittent wind and solar. And yet, they show no signs of relenting on their determined path to inevitable energy insecurity; an approach that borders on National treachery. … Continue reading Energy Insecurity: Biden’s Policies Leave Americans Vulnerable to Unreliable Wind & Solar
