The good folk in New Jersey are just the latest victims of the grand renewable energy ‘transition’. Politicos have backed foreign-owned offshore wind power outfits ahead of local reliable generators and the results are spelt out in black-and-white, with record retail power bills. Retail power prices have doubled in a heartbeat and the socialists in … Continue reading No Joy In New Jersey: Power Bills Double (Again) In Wind Power Obsessed State

Wasted & Worthless: Mountains of Wind & Solar Power Dumped For Want of Buyers
In a theatre of the absurd, wind and solar generators get paid (with your taxes) to generate nothing at all (except subsidised profits for their shareholders). Producing no power when consumers really need it, and mountains of power when consumers don’t, is the very definition of chaos. And all that wanton waste comes with a … Continue reading Wasted & Worthless: Mountains of Wind & Solar Power Dumped For Want of Buyers
Net Zero Suicide Watch: Suicidal Energy Policies Deliver Economic Disaster
Britain’s power consumers are paying a heavy price for its maniacal obsession with intermittent wind and solar. Trashing its coal-fired power fleet and failing to keep up its nuclear plants now looks positively suicidal. The cost of generating occasional electricity offshore is positively insane, and getting worse. And that’s just to focus on the economics. … Continue reading Net Zero Suicide Watch: Suicidal Energy Policies Deliver Economic Disaster
Crushed: Biggest Wind & Solar State Suffers Astronomical Power Prices
Germany and Denmark suffer Europe’s highest power prices, thanks to their subsidised wind and solar obsession. Likewise, South Australians are being belted by retail power prices that are (dollar for dollar) the highest in the world. As night follows day, any attempt to run on sunshine and breezes leads to out of this world power … Continue reading Crushed: Biggest Wind & Solar State Suffers Astronomical Power Prices
Life Support: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Keeping the Lights On
Thanks to their chaotic intermittency, any increase in wind and solar capacity brings with it their capacity to bring down whole power grids. In Australia, the only thing preventing a total system black are its remaining coal-fired power plants. The very plants that the massive subsidies, punitive mandates and ludicrous wind and solar targets are … Continue reading Life Support: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Keeping the Lights On
Truth in Numbers: Cheap ‘Renewables’ Claim Smashed by Crushing Power Bills
Subsidised wind and solar are the principal reason for rocketing power prices, and rocketing power prices are the principal reason for rocketing inflation. Branded as “cost of living pressures” the rapid doubling and tripling of retail power costs are always and everywhere about the market destruction caused by massive subsidies to intermittent and unreliable wind … Continue reading Truth in Numbers: Cheap ‘Renewables’ Claim Smashed by Crushing Power Bills
Totally Wrecked: Australia’s Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Astronomical Power Prices
The massive subsidies to intermittent wind and solar were deliberately designed to wreck coal-fired power generation - the cheapest and most reliable source of all - and that objective is well advanced in Australia. With the forced exit of another coal-fired generator the effect of a calm night (when the combined output of wind and … Continue reading Totally Wrecked: Australia’s Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Astronomical Power Prices
Headless Chickens: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Story Flips to Totally Unhinged
It’s a challenge to distill any sensible narrative from the grand wind and solar transition. The subtext is always and everywhere about deflecting attention from their natural incapacity to deliver power as and when it’s needed. Also known as the ‘hopeless intermittency problem’. The ‘answers’ pitched up seem only limited by the rather fertile (albeit … Continue reading Headless Chickens: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Story Flips to Totally Unhinged
Bleeding Obvious: New-Nuclear Offers Best Hope For Reliable & Affordable Power
Nuclear works: all day, every day, whatever the weather, no need for batteries and no need for back up. Whereas, wind and solar … well, you know the rest. Incapable of delivering power on demand, the only ‘benefit’ claimed by the wind and sun cult is that wind and solar power purportedly eliminate carbon dioxide … Continue reading Bleeding Obvious: New-Nuclear Offers Best Hope For Reliable & Affordable Power
Pure Retro: Wind & Solar Transition On Track to Deliver New (Very) Dark Age
The wind and solar ‘industries’ couldn’t care less whether you have power, as long as the subsidies keep rolling in. The path to penury - aka the ‘grand renewable energy transition’ - is dimly lit and the future, darker still. But, so it is, when you pin your entire energy hopes on the wind and … Continue reading Pure Retro: Wind & Solar Transition On Track to Deliver New (Very) Dark Age
