Pin your energy hopes to the weather and prepare for sudden and unpredictable disappointment.

Boris Blown Away: True Cost of PM’s Offshore Wind Power Plan is Absolutely Staggering
A MW of intermittent offshore wind power capacity costs up to 17 times the cost of a thoroughly reliable MW of gas-fired power generation. And, whereas, the latter is available around-the-clock, the former is available when Mother Nature deems fit. And she tends to be a temperamental, old cow. One particular wheeze among Britain’s renewable … Continue reading Boris Blown Away: True Cost of PM’s Offshore Wind Power Plan is Absolutely Staggering
Society Wreckers: Renewable Energy Cult Determined to Destroy Industry Wealth & Jobs

Boris Johnson’s plan to squander a further £50,000,000,000 on subsidies and over-the-market contracts for intermittent offshore wind power is positively bonkers.

Hour of Power: $2 Billion Spent on Solar Panels to ‘Power’ State With Sunshine for 60 Minutes
In the wacko wonderland of South Australia, a brief burst of sunshine managed to ‘power’ the economic backwater for a staggering 60 minutes. SA is venerated as Australia’s Wind and Solar capital; and the renewables cult is heralding this, apparently, momentous event as their ‘Hour of Power’. Their childish cheering, ignores the fact that … Continue reading Hour of Power: $2 Billion Spent on Solar Panels to ‘Power’ State With Sunshine for 60 Minutes
Glorious Fiction: Busting the Myth that Wind & Solar Will Soon Power the Planet
Delusions come in various sizes, but the biggest of all is the claim that we’ll soon be powered by nothing but sunshine and breezes. With the prospect of a Sleepy Joe Biden Presidency and the imposition of the Squad’s economy-wrecking New Green Deal the delusion is about to take on monstrous proportions. So, no time … Continue reading Glorious Fiction: Busting the Myth that Wind & Solar Will Soon Power the Planet
In-a-Nutshell: New Research Shows Why Unreliable Wind & Solar Can Never Power Us
There’s a reason not to support heavily subsidised wind and solar: they simply don’t work as meaningful power sources; they never have and never will. A team of Irish and US-based researchers have produced a comprehensive piece of research explaining just why any dollar spent propping up chaotically intermittent wind and solar with taxpayer’s money, … Continue reading In-a-Nutshell: New Research Shows Why Unreliable Wind & Solar Can Never Power Us
Decade of Despair: Counting Staggering Cost of Ontario’s Wind Power Disaster
It took Ontario’s Green-left lunatics less than a decade to destroy its once reliable and eminently affordable power supply. It was deliberate, it was malicious and it was, in economy wrecking terms, very effective. Dressed up under the guise of its Green Energy Act, the mandated targets for, and preferential treatment of, wind power, the … Continue reading Decade of Despair: Counting Staggering Cost of Ontario’s Wind Power Disaster

If insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, then Boris Johnson is clearly barking mad. The UK PM’s latest cunning plan is to squander a further £50,000,000,000 on government guaranteed fixed price contracts - paying way above market rates - subsidies and taxpayer support for chaotically intermittent wind … Continue reading Boris Goes Bonkers: UK Set to Squander A Further £50,000,000,000 On Failed Wind Power Experiment
