Northern hemisphere winters are particularly brutal on wind turbines and solar panels, the former frozen solid and the latter blanketed in snow and ice. The result being no power from either. Peak winter conditions are perfect for revealing the peak stupidity of attempting to power first world economies with generation systems that deliver nothing but … Continue reading Frozen Supply: Unreliable Wind & Solar Means US Faces More Winter Blackouts

Why Adding More Wind & Solar Always Means Higher Power Prices For Everyone
Finding the numbers that establish the true and insane cost of subsidised wind and solar is like a game of hide and seek. Buried in a sea of complexity and industry mumbo-jumbo, the way power prices are set is part myth and part mystery. Myth and mystery that allows wind and solar rent-seekers to only … Continue reading Why Adding More Wind & Solar Always Means Higher Power Prices For Everyone
Grand ‘Green’ Energy Flop: Europeans Wake Up to Wind & Solar Debacle
The results of attempting to rely on sunshine and breezes can’t be hidden forever. As wind and solar generating capacity increases, the inevitable consequences are soon revealed: namely, routine power rationing, mass blackouts and crippling power prices. And yet the acolytes continue to maintain that we’re only a few mythical mega-batteries away from an all-wind … Continue reading Grand ‘Green’ Energy Flop: Europeans Wake Up to Wind & Solar Debacle
Compounding Problems: Wind Industry’s Fortunes Never Looked So Woeful
2023 will go down as the year that the wind industry began its inevitable implosion. Unable to deliver power as and when power consumers need it (therefore generating electricity with no commercial value), the wind industry was only ever the product of mandates, tax breaks and massive subsidies. Call it a Ponzi scheme, call it … Continue reading Compounding Problems: Wind Industry’s Fortunes Never Looked So Woeful
Permanently Cancelled: No Way Back For Embattled Offshore Wind Industry
As the offshore wind industry implodes in the US, UK and Northern Europe it’s worth noting the class of villains responsible. Pitching the most insanely expensive method of occasionally generating electricity on a random and entirely chaotic basis took audacity; taking investors for a ride with them took a special kind of malice; and pretending … Continue reading Permanently Cancelled: No Way Back For Embattled Offshore Wind Industry
Litigation Only Way to Protect Communities & Environments From Wind Turbine Rollout
Holding hands and waving placards just doesn’t cut it. If you want to protect the environment or your community from the industrial wind power onslaught, then litigate. In this post, we contrast a community off the coast of New South Wales, Australia where a rally of surfers gathered to stave off the threat of an … Continue reading Litigation Only Way to Protect Communities & Environments From Wind Turbine Rollout
America’s Wind Industry Implodes: More Offshore Projects Scrapped
In the US the offshore wind industry is completely underwater, in every sense. The insane cost of attempting to (occasionally) generate electricity with no commercial value in hostile marine environments has finally caught up. Projects are being scrapped in the same way that punters rip up their betting slips when their long-shot nag fails to … Continue reading America’s Wind Industry Implodes: More Offshore Projects Scrapped
Grand Green Dream Goes Up In Smoke: Wind & Solar Industries Face Total Collapse
That ‘industries’ built on lies, myths and subsidies are in freefall is hardly surprising. Nothing about intermittent wind and solar have never made any sense. Now the markets are starting to cotton on. Governments are refusing to bail out wind power outfits - rejecting their ever-increasing demands for ever-increasing subsidies. The knock-on effect on the … Continue reading Grand Green Dream Goes Up In Smoke: Wind & Solar Industries Face Total Collapse
Pointless Preaching: Zero Chance of Meeting Net Zero CO2 Emissions Targets
Setting pointless targets and announcing five-year plans is all the rage, which includes playing accounting tricks with carbon dioxide gas emissions. So-called net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets are just the latest tool employed by crony capitalists to separate the poor from their hard-earned cash. Those behind the scam know full well the targets they … Continue reading Pointless Preaching: Zero Chance of Meeting Net Zero CO2 Emissions Targets
Hello Hydrogen: Mythical ‘Green’ Gas All Set to Explode on Energy Scene
Unable to deal head-on with the hopeless intermittency of wind and solar, acolytes are reduced to waffling about batteries and so-called ‘green’ hydrogen gas as the answer. Stripped back, the great hydrogen hoax is just another scheme dreamt up by crony capitalists to gouge subsidies from unwitting taxpayers, all the support of their political enablers. … Continue reading Hello Hydrogen: Mythical ‘Green’ Gas All Set to Explode on Energy Scene
