Unbeknownst to taxpayers and power consumers, the wind industry has engineered the most outrageous raft of subsidies, mostly hidden and all massively generous. These include being paid hundreds of $millions to produce nothing at all, with what are called “constraint payments”. In Britain, taxpayers have stumped up £1 billion in constraint payments to wind power … Continue reading Brits Count Mounting & Staggering Wind Power Subsidy Cost

False Dawn: Big Talk About Millions of Groovy ‘Green’ Jobs Evaporates
The Neo-Marxists driving the energy agenda are always quick to promise a workers’ paradise, lined with millions of groovy jobs that are meant to fall like fruit from trees as part of the grand wind and solar transition. The problem with Utopia, of course, is that it’s always over the horizon and always just out … Continue reading False Dawn: Big Talk About Millions of Groovy ‘Green’ Jobs Evaporates
Tangled Webs: How Crony Capitalists Built The Climate Industrial Complex
Crony capitalists come in all shapes and sizes, and so do their political enablers. The whole point of patronage, networking and gladhanding is obtaining benefits not available to anyone else. The only people that complain about a rort are those that aren’t in on it. The Climate Industrial Complex was built on will the back … Continue reading Tangled Webs: How Crony Capitalists Built The Climate Industrial Complex
Net Zero Suicide Watch: Suicidal Energy Policies Deliver Economic Disaster
Britain’s power consumers are paying a heavy price for its maniacal obsession with intermittent wind and solar. Trashing its coal-fired power fleet and failing to keep up its nuclear plants now looks positively suicidal. The cost of generating occasional electricity offshore is positively insane, and getting worse. And that’s just to focus on the economics. … Continue reading Net Zero Suicide Watch: Suicidal Energy Policies Deliver Economic Disaster
Britain’s Killing Fields: Offshore Wind Industry Wiping Out Whales, Dolphins & More
With thousands of whales, dolphins and porpoises washing up in areas given over to offshore wind turbines, the wind industry is having a hard time covering up its responsibility for the cetacean carnage. The relationship between offshore wind turbine construction noise and marine mammal fatalities is now incontrovertible: Wind Industry’s Wanton Whale Slaughter Caused by … Continue reading Britain’s Killing Fields: Offshore Wind Industry Wiping Out Whales, Dolphins & More
Europe’s Nuclear Reset Means Wind Turbine Makers Face Total Collapse
Europe’s wind and solar industries are on the ropes, thanks to the sudden embrace of ever-reliable nuclear power across the Continent. Producing machines that can never produce power on demand was always going to end in tears. But moves to amp up construction of nuclear power plants - initiated by the French and followed by … Continue reading Europe’s Nuclear Reset Means Wind Turbine Makers Face Total Collapse
Taxpayers Robbed Again: Offshore Wind Industry Gets More Massive Subsidies
Already the most heavily subsidised ‘industry’ on earth, the wind industry is in need of much more of the same. This time, as Dr John Constable explains below, it’s about politics. [Note to Ed: the renewables scam has always and everywhere been about pure politics] Apparently, wind power outfits have been choosing turbines, associated kit … Continue reading Taxpayers Robbed Again: Offshore Wind Industry Gets More Massive Subsidies
Propaganda Overload: Offshore Wind Industry’s Costs Claims Hit Peak Delusion
The wind industry never lets facts shake the entrenched delusion that wind power is cheap and always available. One of the more troublesome facts relates to cost. Whereas the true and total cost of onshore wind power is merely exorbitant, taking these things kilometres offshore means the true cost of (occasionally) generating electricity is off … Continue reading Propaganda Overload: Offshore Wind Industry’s Costs Claims Hit Peak Delusion
Britain’s Solar ‘Industry’ Outraged About Brewing Farmland Panel Ban
Delivering electricity less than 25% of the time, without massive subsidies we wouldn’t even be talking about solar power. By far and away the most expensive way of electricity generation there is - and utterly useless from sunset to sunrise - there is no argument in favour of connecting solar panels to an integrated power … Continue reading Britain’s Solar ‘Industry’ Outraged About Brewing Farmland Panel Ban
Rolls-Royce Treatment: Britain Backs Small Modular Nuclear Power Plants
Always on, ever reliable nuclear power represents THE existential threat to chaotically intermittent wind and solar. And those profiting from the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time, know it and fear it. Hence the uptick in hysterical propaganda being fed to and through the MSM about the cost, dangers, risks and blah, blah, … Continue reading Rolls-Royce Treatment: Britain Backs Small Modular Nuclear Power Plants
