The RE acolyte is all care and no responsibility, which helps to explain his obsession with solar power. With millions of solar panels already at the end of their useful lives and off to be crushed and dumped in local landfills, it’s probably a good time to find out precisely what’s inside them. For the … Continue reading Toxic Heavy Metal Cocktail: What’s Really Inside Solar Panels

Renewable Energy Rubbish: Who Pays to Clean Up ‘Green’ Energy’s Colossal Mess?
Wind turbines and solar panels produce rubbish energy and, after a decade or so, they’re simply rubbish. Where wind and solar lack constancy in their ability to produce power as and when we need it, they make up for it in their ability to produce a constant stream of toxic waste. Here’s one from the … Continue reading Renewable Energy Rubbish: Who Pays to Clean Up ‘Green’ Energy’s Colossal Mess?
Wind Turbines & Solar Panels Deliver Tiny Fraction of Their Total Capacity
There’s a yawning gulf between what wind turbines and solar panels are capable of delivering and what’s actually delivered. Sunset and calm weather will do it every time. Terms like “capacity factor” and the “Levelized Cost Of Energy” are bandied about with great scientific certitude by renewable energy rent-seekers. As to the first, wind and … Continue reading Wind Turbines & Solar Panels Deliver Tiny Fraction of Their Total Capacity
Why Everything You’ve Heard About Solar Is Wrong: What the Media Don’t Want You to Know
The mainstream press would have you believe that we’re already being exclusively powered by wind and solar, and that neither of them have any downside, at all. Michael Shellenberger knows otherwise. Michael, with his properly reasoned support for nuclear power, draws plenty of heat from the pro-unreliables hacks in the MSM for his equally reasoned … Continue reading Why Everything You’ve Heard About Solar Is Wrong: What the Media Don’t Want You to Know
Solar’s Toxic Legacy: When the Panels Wear Out, Who Cleans Up the ‘Green’ Energy Mess?
Because solar panels can’t be economically recycled, millions upon millions of them are headed for landfill. Around the globe, countless millions of panels have already reached their use by dates. Over the next decade millions of tonnes of them are headed for the dump. Each panel is a veritable toxic cocktail of gallium arsenide, tellurium, … Continue reading Solar’s Toxic Legacy: When the Panels Wear Out, Who Cleans Up the ‘Green’ Energy Mess?
Biden’s Big ‘Green’ Dirty Secret: America’s Solar Industry Depends on Slave Labour
Joe Biden and his Squad are eager to carpet America wall-to-wall with solar panels built by thousands of Uighur slaves under the control of the CCP. The reason that China is able to dominate the market for solar panels isn’t about superior manufacturing techniques or Confucian ideals. No, it’s about very cheap wages. So cheap … Continue reading Biden’s Big ‘Green’ Dirty Secret: America’s Solar Industry Depends on Slave Labour
How Green Was My Valley: Big Solar’s Big British Land Grab Continues Unabated
To generate anything other than a trivial amount of electricity using wind and solar, you need the best part of a continent do it. But, if your ‘continent’ is little more than a postage stamp to begin with, then carpeting the productive and/or prettiest parts of it with an endless sea of solar panels is … Continue reading How Green Was My Valley: Big Solar’s Big British Land Grab Continues Unabated
Solar Slaves: China Dominates Market For Solar Panels Using Forced Uighur Labour
The smugness exhibited by the owners of solar panels is in its own special class. Pious and self-righteous, these characters are quick to pontificate about their holier than thou credentials. Of course, plastering one’s roof with solar panels is all about saving the planet; and has nothing to do with bleeding their neighbours dry - … Continue reading Solar Slaves: China Dominates Market For Solar Panels Using Forced Uighur Labour
Inconvenient Truths: Spanish Solar Firm Slaughters 500 Native Deer to Make Way for Panels
The modern ‘green’ worships wind turbines and solar panels in the belief that they’re literally saving the planet, merrily ignoring the wave of environmental destruction wrought by their beloveds. Solar panels are pitched as the paragon of ‘green’ energy, silently caressing the sun’s rays to give off an occasional burst of power that someone, somewhere … Continue reading Inconvenient Truths: Spanish Solar Firm Slaughters 500 Native Deer to Make Way for Panels
Big Battery Bunkum: Why Grid-Scale Storage of Renewable Energy Will Never Work
Banishing our good friends, logic and reason is essential to the notion of an ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future. Ignorance of simple maths, the laws of physics, economics and meteorology helps, too. Which explains why the naïve and gullible are merrily swallowing the story that we’re just a few mega-batteries … Continue reading Big Battery Bunkum: Why Grid-Scale Storage of Renewable Energy Will Never Work
