Millions of solar panels are already spent and are resting in landfill near you (that’s if they haven’t been quietly shipped and dumped somewhere in Africa). Millions more will join them over the next few years, as their efficiency wanes and/or they’re damaged by hail or otherwise give up the ghost. One fun fact that … Continue reading Smashed: Claims Solar Power Part of ‘Clean’ & ‘Green’ Future Simply Don’t Stack Up

Under Siege: America’s Rural Communities Keep Defeating Big Wind & Solar Projects
The Land of the Free is most certainly the Home of the Brave, namely those communities with the temerity to stand up to the subsidy-soaked wind and solar ‘industries’ and drive them out of town. Resolute and clearly well-organised, America’s rural folk have been taking on wind and solar developers (so-called) for years now, and … Continue reading Under Siege: America’s Rural Communities Keep Defeating Big Wind & Solar Projects
‘Renewables’ Reality Check: Exposing Filthy Truth About Our Wind & Solar Powered ‘Nirvana’
Pull the curtain back on the wind and solar ‘industries’ and you’re in for a filthy and even toxic surprise. Do a little digging, so to speak, and you’ll soon understand that there is absolutely nothing ‘green’ about wind and solar power or, more precisely, what goes into making 300 tonne wind turbines and their … Continue reading ‘Renewables’ Reality Check: Exposing Filthy Truth About Our Wind & Solar Powered ‘Nirvana’
Snowed Under: Solar Power Output Collapses Under Blanket of Snow & Ice
It's not just sunset that sends solar power output to the floor; dust, ice and snow do an equally good job, demonstrating that solar power is, and will always be, utterly useless as a meaningful power source for businesses and households that require power as and when they need it. Solar is simply incapable of … Continue reading Snowed Under: Solar Power Output Collapses Under Blanket of Snow & Ice
Unwelcome ‘Treat’: Tonnes of Toxic Solar Panels Already Headed For A Landfill Near You
Solar panels were meant to be all sunshine and lollipops, with nothing but tingly virtuous feelings for their subsidised owners. With an effective economic lifespan of little more than a decade - after 12 years in service their output is nothing like their original capacity and at the 15-year mark, it becomes a pointless fraction, … Continue reading Unwelcome ‘Treat’: Tonnes of Toxic Solar Panels Already Headed For A Landfill Near You
Enviro-Imposters: Why There’s Nothing Green About Intermittent Wind & Solar Power
Spreading millions of solar panels and spearing thousands of wind turbines far and wide doesn’t make sense, at any level. Intermittent and diffuse energy sources do not represent progress in the state of human affairs; that was the way of the world pre-Industrial Revolution - science, enterprise and engineering made all that a part of … Continue reading Enviro-Imposters: Why There’s Nothing Green About Intermittent Wind & Solar Power
Californian Covers Water Supply Channels With Solar Panels – Laden With Toxic Gunk
Solar panels are a veritable toxic cocktail of gallium arsenide, tellurium, silver, crystalline silicon, lead, cadmium and other heavy metals. Ground up and dumped in their millions into landfills, it’s not difficult to imagine the effect on water supplies, the environment and human health as their poisonous entrails leach into the water table over the coming … Continue reading Californian Covers Water Supply Channels With Solar Panels – Laden With Toxic Gunk
Dirty Business: CCP Dominates Global Solar Panel Market Using Slave Labour
The fact that China dominates solar panel manufacturers using slave labour tends to take the smugness out of Western virtue signallers. Over time, a few journalists have been able to sneak a peek behind the CCP curtain and bring to light the manner in which China’s ‘employs’ its Uyghur and Kazakh minorities to manufacture the … Continue reading Dirty Business: CCP Dominates Global Solar Panel Market Using Slave Labour
Sun Cult Exuberant Over Brief Moment When Solar Delivered: Then Came Sunset…
The infantile mentality of the renewables cult is on vivid display when they crow about wind or solar adding something meaningful to the grid. Always brief and fleeting, the 60 minutes when solar or wind did something special, is always trumpeted as if no one else cares about their power needs for the other … Continue reading Sun Cult Exuberant Over Brief Moment When Solar Delivered: Then Came Sunset…
Goldilocks Power: Why Solar Output Plummets During Heatwaves
Goldilocks was evidently the brains behind the ‘engineering’ of wind and solar power, which only operate when conditions are “just right”. When the weather turns nasty, giant industrial wind turbines simply turn off. When there’s no wind, they produce nothing; when winds hit gale force, they produce nothing. Solar panels aren’t any more resilient. A … Continue reading Goldilocks Power: Why Solar Output Plummets During Heatwaves
