Purely Ideological: No Hope of Ever Satisfying Net-Zero CO2 Targets With Wind & Solar

The wind and solar transition is just like every other grand 5-year-plan dreamt up by socialists, except the fact that crony capitalists are loving every minute of it. Ambitious (and ludicrous) wind and solar generation targets have given way to even more ambitious (and completely ludicrous) net-zero carbon oxide gas targets. Neither have a hope … Continue reading Purely Ideological: No Hope of Ever Satisfying Net-Zero CO2 Targets With Wind & Solar

Outrageous Fortunes: Every ‘Green’ Job Costs British Taxpayers £250,000 Every Year

Every single job in Britain’s wind and solar industry is costing taxpayers £250,000 every year, ad infinitum. Currently that figure converts to AU$482,000 or US$310,000, which is hardly chump change for a feel good job creation scheme. And the fact that taxpayers will be forking out that kind of cash for every so-called ‘green job’ … Continue reading Outrageous Fortunes: Every ‘Green’ Job Costs British Taxpayers £250,000 Every Year

Britain’s Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Demand £60 Billion More For Grid Upgrades

Generating occasional power in far-flung places means connecting wind turbines and solar panels, and that comes with a staggering additional cost. Costs that are totally avoidable and entirely unnecessary, when one considers that no one was short of power before the grand wind and solar ‘transition’ took off. In Australia, it’s reckoned that the current … Continue reading Britain’s Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Demand £60 Billion More For Grid Upgrades

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

Britain’s Wind Industry Under Investigation For Lying About Wind Power Output

The wind industry was built on stack of lies and can’t run for a minute without massive subsidies. Liars come in all shapes and sizes and the tendency to do so usually depends upon what’s at stake. When the size of the subsidies depends on the size of the whopper you’re prepared to tell, the … Continue reading Britain’s Wind Industry Under Investigation For Lying About Wind Power Output

Safety Watch: Neighbours Learn to Dodge Flying Blades From Exploding Wind Turbines

In the last 20 years, the wind industry hasn't generated much power, but it's managed to clock up more than 230 fatalities, and 350 serious injuries according to the helpful collection of stats compiled by Scotland Against Spin available here: https://scotlandagainstspin.org/turbine-accident-statistics/ Routine self-immolation, total collapse and ‘component liberation’ events are among the leading causes of the (wholly … Continue reading Safety Watch: Neighbours Learn to Dodge Flying Blades From Exploding Wind Turbines

UK’s Wind Industry Will Pocket £3 Billion In Subsidies For Producing Nothing At All

The ‘constraint payments’ paid to wind power outfits are commercial extortion, where the (occasional) producer claims a fee for producing absolutely nothing, at all. The honourable kidnapper at least hands over his victim when he gets the cash and there's something to show for the exchange. In this case, the victims are unwitting taxpayers and … Continue reading UK’s Wind Industry Will Pocket £3 Billion In Subsidies For Producing Nothing At All

Broken Dreams: Constant Calm Weather Wiping Out Britain’s Wind Industry

The wind industry treats natural meteorological phenomenon - like calm weather - as a grand conspiracy. They’ve even coined their very own curse, calling such lengthy events “wind droughts”. Wind and solar-dependent Germans call gloomy, windless weather ‘dunkelflaute’. Wild claims being smashed by nature is a common feature of earthly hubris. Icarus learnt the hard … Continue reading Broken Dreams: Constant Calm Weather Wiping Out Britain’s Wind Industry

Renewables Targets Scrapped: Britain Joins French Nuclear Power Generation Renaissance

The French are just the latest European power to ditch ludicrous wind and solar generation targets in favour of nuclear power. And Britain is lining up to do much the same. Both have adopted net zero carbon oxide gas emissions targets, and the only way of meeting them is safe, reliable and affordable nuclear power. … Continue reading Renewables Targets Scrapped: Britain Joins French Nuclear Power Generation Renaissance
