Why Chaotically Delivered Wind and Solar Act Like Cancer On The Power Grid

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 power - a wholly weather-dependent power source, that can’t be stored and costs 3-4 times the cost of conventional power - scores NIL on all three counts. Over the last … Continue reading Why Chaotically Delivered Wind and Solar Act Like Cancer On The Power Grid

Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)

Claims about an inevitable wind and solar transition show wishful thinking is no match for the laws of physics. Sunset (a daily occurrence, for the uninitiated) and calm weather (also a common and natural phenomenon) are where the physical reality begins; and the much-heralded shift to an all-wind and solar-powered future begins to unravel. Then … Continue reading Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)

Wind Industry’s Callous Treatment of Rural Communities Driving Farmers’ Revolt

The great wind power fraud depends on unwitting land owners signing up to host turbines, on the promise of hassle-free 'easy' money, which in turn requires them to sell their souls to charming wind power outfits like Thailand’s RATCH (see our posts here and here and here). No turbine hosts; no wind industry. It's that simple. Farmers who do … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Callous Treatment of Rural Communities Driving Farmers’ Revolt

No Accounting For True Cost of Wind Industry’s Environmental Havoc

There’s nothing even vaguely ‘clean’ or ‘green’ about wind power. An industry built on lies and running on subsidies can’t produce power as and when we need it, but is a master at producing environmental havoc at a global scale. The wind and sun cult happily ignores the thousands of wind turbine blades and millions … Continue reading No Accounting For True Cost of Wind Industry’s Environmental Havoc

Planned For Failure: Shutdown Coal-Fired Power Plants & Get Ready For Blackouts

Power grids are finally balanced affairs that were never designed for the haphazard occasional delivery of wind and solar. Maintaining voltage and frequency within critical defined tolerances is a cinch with conventional generators, like nuclear, gas and coal-fired plants, which deliver the goods, around-the-clock and irrespective of the weather. Around 20 years ago, deranged zealots … Continue reading Planned For Failure: Shutdown Coal-Fired Power Plants & Get Ready For Blackouts

Real Contenders: Coal & Gas-Fired Power Still Dominate America’s Electricity Grid

The same wind and solar-obsessed ideology that wrecked Germany’s power supply is on clear display in the USA. If massive and seemingly endless subsidies to wind and solar aren’t enough to destroy reliable and affordable power supplies we’ve enjoyed for generations o their own, then the wind and sun cult amp it up with arbitrary … Continue reading Real Contenders: Coal & Gas-Fired Power Still Dominate America’s Electricity Grid

Subsidised Wind & Solar Delivering Crushing Power Prices For Energy-Starved Californians

Looking for insight into the wind and solar ‘transition’? Then start with California - where power prices are crushing the poorest households, and blackouts and routine power rationing are now an accepted part of their attempt to run on heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Power prices, already the highest in the USA, … Continue reading Subsidised Wind & Solar Delivering Crushing Power Prices For Energy-Starved Californians

Offshore Killing Fields: Wind Industry ‘Saves Planet’ By Slaughtering Whales, Dolphins & More

The US government granted the wind industry a license to kill whales, porpoises and dolphins and it’s doing so at an astonishing rate. Dozens of whale carcasses have washed-up along the Atlantic coast in the last few months, joining dozens of porpoises and dolphins that met the same fate. More than 500,000 Americans have united … Continue reading Offshore Killing Fields: Wind Industry ‘Saves Planet’ By Slaughtering Whales, Dolphins & More

Damned By Their Silence: What Happened to the Grid Engineers Who Fought For Reliable Power?

Engineers built reliable and affordable power supplies; ideologues obsessed with intermittent wind and solar are rapidly dismantling them. Why engineers allowed that to happen is something of a mystery. Sure, renewable energy rent-seekers have exploited opportunities created around ‘saving the planet’ by purportedly ridding it of man-made carbon dioxide gas by using wind turbines and … Continue reading Damned By Their Silence: What Happened to the Grid Engineers Who Fought For Reliable Power?

Making ‘Green’ Hydrogen From Part-Time Wind and Solar = Mission Impossible

The only ‘value’ in weather-dependent wind and sunshine-dependent solar comes from the subsidies they attract. There is, of course, no commercial value in an energy source that cannot be delivered as and when consumers need it. In plenty of places around the globe, the subsidies are on the wane. But renewable energy rent-seekers reckon they’re … Continue reading Making ‘Green’ Hydrogen From Part-Time Wind and Solar = Mission Impossible
