As the wind and solar industries destroy the scenery from coast to coast, wipeout pristine forests and flatten whole mountain ranges, there’s even more to be said for new-age nuclear. A nuclear plant that pumps out 1,000MW around-the-clock takes up an area no bigger than a city block. Whereas giant industrial wind turbines and endless … Continue reading Grand Designs: Nuclear Saving the Environment From Wind & Solar’s Big Ugly

Africa Embraces Energy Freedom By Rejecting Net-Zero CO2 Madness
While Western elites obsess about carbon dioxide gas, the rest of the world is screaming out for affordable energy. Ignoring those perfectly rational pleas, a cabal of pontificating windbags are hellbent on preventing any real development in the poorest parts of the planet - Africa included. Their weapon of choice is forcing chaotically intermittent and … Continue reading Africa Embraces Energy Freedom By Rejecting Net-Zero CO2 Madness
If Your Country’s Not Backing Nuclear Power It’s Probably Going Backwards
Rent-seekers and the wind and solar cult have conniptions at the merest mention of nuclear power, principally because it works around-the-clock. No need for batteries. No need for back up. Wild claims about the purported benefits of wind and solar never survive the first contact with reality. So, acolytes have to defer and deflect on … Continue reading If Your Country’s Not Backing Nuclear Power It’s Probably Going Backwards
South Africa’s Dark Age: Wind & Solar Obsession Delivering Blackouts Every Single Day
Trashing coal-fired power plants and pretending to replace their output with wind and solar guarantees blackouts and mass load shedding. For the uninitiated, it’s all about sunset and the weather. South Africa is a case in point. In little more than a decade, the ANC’s policy of backing wind turbines and solar panels with taxpayer … Continue reading South Africa’s Dark Age: Wind & Solar Obsession Delivering Blackouts Every Single Day
Lights Out: South Africa’s Subsidised Wind & Solar Obsession Delivers New Dark Age
Pin your energy hopes on the weather and you’d better have candles and torches at the ready. Reliable and affordable electricity supplies are the cornerstone of economic development, around the globe. And, whereas, until recently at least, the wealthy West has tended to take 24 x 365 power for granted, developing economies are not so … Continue reading Lights Out: South Africa’s Subsidised Wind & Solar Obsession Delivers New Dark Age
Jumbo Noise Problem: Africa’s Elephants Hate Thumping Droning Wind Turbine Noise
Thumping, grinding wind turbine noise has always been the elephant in the room for the wind industry. Now, it’s the elephants themselves who’ve signalled just how annoying low-frequency wind turbine noise is. Renowned for their acutely sensitive hearing in the lower frequency register, the long-distance communication between Africa’s elephants is being drowned out by an … Continue reading Jumbo Noise Problem: Africa’s Elephants Hate Thumping Droning Wind Turbine Noise
Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Are Sending South Africa’s Power Prices Into Orbit
Rocketing power prices and grid instability are two inescapable consequences of subsidised wind and solar. While sunshine and breezes might be free, attempting to run your power system using nature’s gifts, brings with it a raft of other costs which RE zealots tend to gloss over. The electricity generation and distribution system - which wind … Continue reading Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Are Sending South Africa’s Power Prices Into Orbit
South Africa Slams the Door on Wind Power: Nuclear Powered Future Beckons
*** STT followers might have tumbled to the fact that we’ve been pretty heavily focused on SA over the last month. However, in this post, we head a few thousand clicks, west across the Indian Ocean to another ‘SA’; this time South Africa, which appears entirely sensible enough to be able to avoid the power … Continue reading South Africa Slams the Door on Wind Power: Nuclear Powered Future Beckons
The Wind Power Fraud the same the World over: South Africans Rumble the Rort
**** STT expects that our followers’ Spidey-Senses have probably picked up that we’ve been going harder than ever in our efforts to belt the patent nonsense of attempting to rely upon a wholly weather dependent power generation source – smashing the infantile ‘logic’ employed by wind power’s proponents to sell their third-rate-wares, has been the … Continue reading The Wind Power Fraud the same the World over: South Africans Rumble the Rort
Fighting the Great Wind Power Fraud? You’re Not Alone
Hard to think it's only been a Year since we took the fight to Canberra. On 18 June 2013, 364 pro-farming and pro-rural community representatives - from Tolga in Far North Queensland, Coopers Gap in Southern QLD; from all over the Tablelands of NSW; a big contingent of Victorians and South Australians; and a contingent … Continue reading Fighting the Great Wind Power Fraud?
