Before ideologues launched their grand wind and solar 'transition', gas was rarely used to generate power if coal, nuclear or hydro sources were available. Gas-fired electricity, in the main, was simply too expensive, by comparison with coal-fired power. Coal-fired generators are designed to run around-the-clock. Wind turbines and solar panels only run according to the … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Really Means Burning Way More Gas

Grand Lunacy: New York Shut Down Nuclear Plants & Wrecked Its Power Supply
New York State is another place where wind and solar-obsessed lunatics have seized control of energy policy. The notional objective was to reduce carbon oxide gas emissions using nothing more than sunshine and breezes. Ever-reliable nuclear power (which does not generate CO2 during the generation process) is deemed a mortal threat to the ideologues’ utopian … Continue reading Grand Lunacy: New York Shut Down Nuclear Plants & Wrecked Its Power Supply
America Tells Australia To Grow Up & Get With The Nuclear Power Program
Australia’s ban on nuclear power is not just embarrassing, it’s positively idiotic. A fact not lost on our American cousins, who are demanding that we grow up and get with the nuclear power program. And they are perfectly qualified to criticize. The US has 92 reactors operating, with a combined capacity of 94,718 MW – … Continue reading America Tells Australia To Grow Up & Get With The Nuclear Power Program
Shipwrecked: America’s Offshore Wind Industry Being Crushed By Rising Construction Costs
2023 was the year when the offshore wind industry’s grand implosion began. Major investors bailed out as the insane cost of attempting to (occasionally) generate electricity with no commercial value in hostile marine environments began to bite. Dozens of projects have been scrapped and others are now highly doubtful. And for those wind power outfits … Continue reading Shipwrecked: America’s Offshore Wind Industry Being Crushed By Rising Construction Costs
Killer App: Nuclear Moves Destroy Business Case For Subsidised Wind & Solar
The business case for wind and solar rests entirely on subsidies, which rest entirely on political sentiment. With punishing power bills causing increasing anger amongst the proles’, it’s getting harder for politicos to justify their delusional renewable energy/net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets. That shift in the political mood feeds directly into the dreaded ‘sovereign … Continue reading Killer App: Nuclear Moves Destroy Business Case For Subsidised Wind & Solar
Rising Power Costs Driven By Democrat’s Subsidised Wind & Solar Obsession
Consumers inevitably pay more for power when wind and solar obsessed Democrats are in charge of energy policy. Every country that’s dialled up wind and solar is suffering from rocketing power prices. Across the USA the data is in, proving just that point - on a state-by-state basis. The lucky residents of Republican Red States … Continue reading Rising Power Costs Driven By Democrat’s Subsidised Wind & Solar Obsession
Nuclear Necessity: Europeans Driving Nuclear Power’s Inevitable Renaissance
When Vlad Putin put the squeeze on Europe’s gas supplies, Europeans embraced nuclear power out of urgent necessity. The grand wind and solar ‘transition’ were revealed as nothing but the greatest economic and environmental fraud, of all time. Incapable of delivering electricity as and when households and businesses need it, wind and solar run a … Continue reading Nuclear Necessity: Europeans Driving Nuclear Power’s Inevitable Renaissance
They’re Not In Kansas Anymore: Mid-West Bans Industrial Wind & Solar Projects
As soon as rural folk are given free choice, they inevitably ban industrial wind and solar from their territories. Local governments, finally listening to their constituents, are acting out the universal hostility the pointless power. The weather and/or sunshine-dependent stuff - that can’t deliver power on demand - but that guarantees economic misery, environmental destruction … Continue reading They’re Not In Kansas Anymore: Mid-West Bans Industrial Wind & Solar Projects
‘Green Energy’ Dream Collides With Harsh Reality: Wind & Solar Just Don’t Work
When so-called ‘sustainable’ investment funds pull the plug on wind and solar, you know the party’s over. As 2023 closes out, ‘green’ energy investors are facing a brutal and harsh reality: wind and solar will never amount to meaningful power sources. Worse still, governments backing the grand wind and solar transition are having a hard … Continue reading ‘Green Energy’ Dream Collides With Harsh Reality: Wind & Solar Just Don’t Work
Uncontrolled Frequency: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Are Wrecking Stable Power Grids
Designed by engineers, our electricity grids are remarkable, but finely balanced affairs, being wrecked by the chaotic delivery of wind and solar power. There are 3 electricity essentials – that the power source and its delivery to homes and businesses be: 1) reliable; 2) secure; and 3) affordable. Wind and solar score NIL on all … Continue reading Uncontrolled Frequency: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Are Wrecking Stable Power Grids
