Every state or country that ramps up wind and solar capacity ends up with rocketing power prices and an unreliable grid - no exceptions. Press members of the wind and sun cult for an example of the alternative outcome and they’ll quickly deflect and change the subject, keep pressing and then you’ll get ranting about … Continue reading Simply Staggering: Power Users Bear The True Cost of Subsidised Wind and Solar

Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices
As night follows day, adding more wind and solar capacity inevitably results in rocketing power prices. The hard numbers say it all. China enjoys the world’s lowest power prices, thanks to cheap, abundant and reliable coal-fired power. Adding to their advantage, China is building dozens of new coal-fired and nuclear powered plants. It’s almost as … Continue reading Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices
No Care & No Responsibility: Massive Subsidies Only Reason Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Exist
Sun’s up, wind’s blowing and wind and solar power is flowing. Wind drops, Sun sets and you’re on your own. The so-called wind and solar ‘industries’ couldn’t care less whether you’re left freezing in the dark. Your power supply is somebody else’s problem. In this three-part essay, Edward A Reid Jr targets the unhealthy relationship … Continue reading No Care & No Responsibility: Massive Subsidies Only Reason Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Exist
California’s Wind & Solar Calamity: Power Prices Rocketing Out of Control
There’s no mystery as to why California suffers the highest prices and routine load shedding and blackouts: in 2018, California had 80 GW of installed generation capacity encompassing more than 1,500 power plants; with 41 GW of natural gas, 26.5 GW of ‘renewables’ (12 GW solar, 6 GW wind), 12 GW of large hydroelectric, and … Continue reading California’s Wind & Solar Calamity: Power Prices Rocketing Out of Control
Want Perpetual Chaos & Grinding Energy Poverty: Dial Up Subsidised Wind & Solar
The wind and solar ‘transition’ has nothing to do with providing reliable and affordable power. It’s a wealth transfer from power consumers and taxpayers to rent seekers - driven by ideologues and enabled by politicos who wouldn’t know a kilowatt from their elbow. Australia’s Eastern Grid is a heartbeat away from total collapse. Once upon … Continue reading Want Perpetual Chaos & Grinding Energy Poverty: Dial Up Subsidised Wind & Solar
Massive Wind & Solar Subsidies Principal Cause of Your Rocketing Power Bills
It takes more than just your average leap of logic to contend that the grand wind and solar ‘transition’ constitutes rational energy policy. That so-called ‘policy’ means doling out massive subsidies to wind and solar generators for weather-dependent occasional power; then subsidising coal-fired power plants to stay operating to fill the ‘gaps’ caused by sunset … Continue reading Massive Wind & Solar Subsidies Principal Cause of Your Rocketing Power Bills
Mega-Battery Owners Rolling in Cash Whenever Wind & Solar Output Collapse
Sunset and calm weather provides the perfect opportunity for rent-seekers profiting from the market chaos that follows. The owners of fast-start diesel and gas-generators make out like bandits, as the spot price for power goes from less than $100 per MWh to tens of thousands of dollars per MWh. Couple a sudden collapse of wind … Continue reading Mega-Battery Owners Rolling in Cash Whenever Wind & Solar Output Collapse
Europe’s Wind Industry Collapse Leaves Wind Power Cult Searching For New False Idols
Wind power acolytes exhibit all the hallmarks of a cult. 20 years on, and anyone with critical faculties can explain in a sentence why wind power will never amount to meaningful power generation source. But the cultist still believes - running on a mix of blind faith, ignorance and blissful stupidity. Cults are never big … Continue reading Europe’s Wind Industry Collapse Leaves Wind Power Cult Searching For New False Idols
UK’s Wind Industry Gets £1 Billion in ‘Constraint Payments’ For Producing Nothing At All
By December 2019, British wind power outfits had already collected over £650,000,000 in “constraint payments” for doing nothing at all; the cost to power consumers was almost £1 billion over the last five years and that figure is expected to soar. By 2030, wind power outfits across the UK (principally in Scotland) are predicted to … Continue reading UK’s Wind Industry Gets £1 Billion in ‘Constraint Payments’ For Producing Nothing At All
Voters Reject Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ & Demand Immediate Nuclear Power Shift
As sandal-wearing lefty troglodytes drop off the perch, their tech-savvy replacements are as keen as mustard on safe, reliable and affordable nuclear power. Whereas their mung bean eating grandparents railed for decades about the purported evils of nuclear power generation, their grandkids are all in. In a recent Newspoll the number of younger voters in … Continue reading Voters Reject Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ & Demand Immediate Nuclear Power Shift
