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

Time to Ditch Meaningless Medieval Wind Power & Embrace Modern Nuclear Power
Wind power was abandoned centuries ago, for pretty obvious reasons, known to kite flyers and sailors, since the beginning of time. Sure, in medieval times, when there was no alternative, harnessing nature’s energy make sense. But not now. It was coal that dragged Europe out of the Dark Ages, by providing around-the-clock power, not windmills. … Continue reading Time to Ditch Meaningless Medieval Wind Power & Embrace Modern Nuclear Power
Hollow Promises: Thousands of ‘Green’ Jobs Disappear With Turbine Blade Maker’s Total Flop
It takes a special brand of delusion to swallow the wind industry’s promise of an endless stream of meaningful employment. Whether you call it a ‘Green New Deal’ or a ‘Great Green Reset’, the promised boom in well-paid and lasting employment turns out to be little more than hot air. Increase power prices, as with … Continue reading Hollow Promises: Thousands of ‘Green’ Jobs Disappear With Turbine Blade Maker’s Total Flop
Wind & Solar Transition Means Transition to Power Rationing & Rocketing Power Bills
When the sun sets and calm weather sets in, wind and solar power can’t be bought at any price. Increase the capacity of the unreliables connected to your grid and get ready for not only rocketing power bills, but routine power rationing. Once upon a time, electricity was cheap and it flowed like running water. … Continue reading Wind & Solar Transition Means Transition to Power Rationing & Rocketing Power Bills
How Cynical Elites Have Wrecked Energy Supplies & Ruined Your Economic Future
The attack on our reliable and affordable energy supplies is part treason and part act of war. Internal forces openly conspire to promote the interests of crony capitalists at the expense of the ambitious working class. External forces do the same, but at a grandstanding global level, pressuring and shaming any national government with the … Continue reading How Cynical Elites Have Wrecked Energy Supplies & Ruined Your Economic Future
Lobster Tales: Offshore Wind Farms Leave Lobsters With Deformed & Crippled Young
Crabs and lobsters are being mesmerised, deformed and crippled by the peculiar electromagnetic fields created by the cables that connect offshore wind turbines. A recent scientific study found that the magnetic fields generated by these cables attracts crabs that then remain in place, fixated on the magnetic field, effectively immobilising them. Now, another study relating … Continue reading Lobster Tales: Offshore Wind Farms Leave Lobsters With Deformed & Crippled Young
Total Failure: Britain’s Grand ‘Cheap’ Wind Power Plan Faces Total Collapse
If wind power is so ‘cheap’, then why is it that retail power prices continue to rocket in every country attempting to run on breezes? There are, as this site has pointed out over the last decade, myriad reasons, starting with the fact that wind power can only be delivered as and when Mother Nature … Continue reading Total Failure: Britain’s Grand ‘Cheap’ Wind Power Plan Faces Total Collapse
The Hard Data: Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Inevitably Drive Power Prices Into Orbit
The relationship between rocketing power prices and heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar couldn’t be clearer. Every country that’s embarked on the so-called ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future is suffering from surging power prices. Add wind and solar generating capacity and watch power prices go into orbit, as … Continue reading The Hard Data: Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Inevitably Drive Power Prices Into Orbit
No Escape: How Households Suffer Astronomical Cost of Great Wind & Solar Scam
Working out what households pay for subsidies to wind and solar is a task, in itself. Naturally, the crony capitalists that profit from the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time, are keen to conceal the extent of the state-sponsored larceny from their unwitting victims. To the same end, their political enablers often talk … Continue reading No Escape: How Households Suffer Astronomical Cost of Great Wind & Solar Scam
Persistently Pathetic: Routine Total Collapses Mean Wind Power Remains A Total Joke
No matter how many wind turbines get added to the grid, when calm weather sets in, their combined output amounts to a doughnut. Europe has more on and offshore wind turbines per square kilometre than any other continent. And yet it continues to suffer month’s long wind droughts, such as the one that started in … Continue reading Persistently Pathetic: Routine Total Collapses Mean Wind Power Remains A Total Joke
