Efforts to wreck power supplies by forcing us to rely on sunshine and breezes share a few parallels with the panic-driven response to COVID-19. The threat of imminent doom (real enough for some vulnerable individuals in one case and fictional in the other); lots of self-appointed ‘experts’ dictating the terms (usually well outside their given … Continue reading Climate Cult Claims More Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar Solution to Coronavirus Recovery

It’s No Joke: Australia’s Electricity Supply Now Depends On Wind & Cloud Forecasts
If you’re looking for the reason why wind power has never worked and never will? Here it is: THE WEATHER. If you’re looking to wreck a grid and send power prices into orbit, then pin your power hopes to mother nature’s whims. South Australia did; it suffers the world’s highest retail power prices and became … Continue reading It’s No Joke: Australia’s Electricity Supply Now Depends On Wind & Cloud Forecasts
A Bigger Picture: Thank Malcolm Turnbull For Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
Malcolm Turnbull’s miserable presence endures in the Snowy 2.0 pumped hydro project, a white elephant that’ll cost taxpayers at least $10billion. Before he was ditched as PM by his Liberal Party over his pitch to expand subsidies to chaotically intermittent wind and solar and to extend those subsidies until the end of time, Malcolm Turnbull … Continue reading A Bigger Picture: Thank Malcolm Turnbull For Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
Double Nightmare: New York’s Reliable Nuclear Power Plants Shutdown During Coronavirus Disaster

Avoidable Self-Harm: Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar Destroying Australia’s (Once) Reliable Power Grid
An obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar poses an existential threat to Australia’s power grid. So far, it’s been limited to “demand management” (a euphemism for controlled blackouts) and in wind and solar obsessed South Australia, plenty of uncontrolled blackouts, including the big one in September 2016 when the whole State went black: … Continue reading Avoidable Self-Harm: Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar Destroying Australia’s (Once) Reliable Power Grid
Snap Back From COVID-19 Crisis? Try Snapping Out Of The Obsession With Wind & Solar
COVID-19 has left Australia’s economy a victim of involuntarily euthanasia; what’s not been wiped out by insane renewable energy policies has been finished off by government enforced lockdowns. Australia’s PM, Scott Morrison talks about the economy enjoying a “snap back”, once the restrictions on business and movements are lifted. As if the deliberate destruction … Continue reading Snap Back From COVID-19 Crisis? Try Snapping Out Of The Obsession With Wind & Solar
Recession Buster: Australia’s Economic Recovery Depends On Cheap & Reliable Coal-Fired Power
A Chinese virus has taken up where Australia’s suicidal energy policies left off; crushing the entire economy, rather than just energy hungry industries, like manufacturing and mineral processing. Well, in truth, it’s the political reaction to COVID-19 that’s done the damage, rather than the pathogen itself. Having destroyed the hospitality and tourism sectors overnight, … Continue reading Recession Buster: Australia’s Economic Recovery Depends On Cheap & Reliable Coal-Fired Power
Cold Comfort: 20 Years Of Subsidies to Wind & Solar Leaves Germans Suffering World’s Highest Power Prices
No country has squandered more on subsidies to wind and solar than Germany; no country pays more for its power. Which is hardly a coincidence. The idea that millions of solar panels lying frozen under sheets of snow for months each year would provide some kind of benefit to power consumers beggars belief. So too, … Continue reading Cold Comfort: 20 Years Of Subsidies to Wind & Solar Leaves Germans Suffering World’s Highest Power Prices
Elder Abuse: Renewable Energy Obsession Leaves Millions of Grannies Freezing In The Dark
As night follows day, rocketing power prices are the inevitable consequence of the inevitable transition to subsidised and unreliable wind and solar. The burden of all that glorious virtue signalling falls disproportionately on those on low and fixed incomes. Add the normal path of decrepitude, frailty and illness to impecuniousity and you’ve got a recipe … Continue reading Elder Abuse: Renewable Energy Obsession Leaves Millions of Grannies Freezing In The Dark
Grand Theft: US Taxpayers Liable For $120,000,000,000 In Subsidies to Wind & Solar
In the absence of endless subsidies there would be no wind or solar industries. Period. The minute talk turns to cutting those subsidies, the rent-seekers profiting from the wind and solar scam scream ‘blue murder’. In the USA, the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time is on a scale and magnitude that would … Continue reading Grand Theft: US Taxpayers Liable For $120,000,000,000 In Subsidies to Wind & Solar
