Eating cold baked beans in the dark might not be everyone’s idea of fun, but power-starved Europeans are getting used to that kind of indignity. German households and businesses are already suffering Europe’s highest power prices; since Putin’s Ukrainian adventure began, German power prices have rocketed, further still, recently hitting a record 40 US cents per … Continue reading Renewables Regret: Power-Starved Europeans Rue Their Governments’ Wind & Solar Obsession

Component Liberation: Wind Turbines Keep Throwing 8-20 Tonne Blades In All Directions
Like playing Where’s Waldow, wind turbines keep losing blades and their owners apparently have trouble finding them again. Which seems strange, given that these suckers are 45-70m long and weigh between 8 and 20 tonnes. The trade euphemism for blades flying in all directions is “component liberation”, as if that abuse of the English language … Continue reading Component Liberation: Wind Turbines Keep Throwing 8-20 Tonne Blades In All Directions
Reliable, Safe & Affordable: Small Modular Reactors Set to Deliver Real Energy Transition
With Europe’s renewable energy disaster laid bare for all to see, the focus is now on “real energy” - power that’s available 24 x 7, irrespective of the weather and where the Sun sits in the sky. For fairly obvious reasons, the Small Modular Reactor has captured the imagination of power-starved Europeans, with two key … Continue reading Reliable, Safe & Affordable: Small Modular Reactors Set to Deliver Real Energy Transition
After 40 Years Of Massive Subsidies Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Still Begging For More
Back in 1983 the American Wind Industry Association claimed that solar and wind would be “competitive and self-supporting on a national level by the end of the decade if assisted by tax credits and augmented by federally sponsored R&D”. That was 39 years ago. Over that span of time, there has been no lack of … Continue reading After 40 Years Of Massive Subsidies Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Still Begging For More
No ‘Right’ Place: Industrial Wind Turbines Don’t Belong In ANYONE’S Backyard
As wind turbines are incapable of generating power on demand and wouldn’t last a second without massive subsidies, there is no ‘right’ place for them. Any power generation source that can’t deliver electricity on demand is pointless, so talk about appropriate siting is pure nonsense. Why bother? Rent seekers and crony capitalists are the only … Continue reading No ‘Right’ Place: Industrial Wind Turbines Don’t Belong In ANYONE’S Backyard
All Pain/No Gain: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Can Never Really Power Us
Calm weather and sunset mean that wind and solar will never amount to meaningful power sources. And mythical grid-scale electricity storage won’t save them, either. Never to be defeated by facts, reason and logic, wind and solar acolytes are quick to point to a rare occasion when their combined output is equal to, or greater … Continue reading All Pain/No Gain: Why Intermittent Wind & Solar Can Never Really Power Us
Why Solar Power Can’t Meet Net Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions Targets
Net-zero carbon dioxide emissions targets are driven by climate alarmists and renewable energy rent seekers, eager to profit from the expansion of the great wind and solar subsidy scam. This band of profiteers and charlatans rely upon the notion that wind turbines and solar panels are the only means of reducing carbon dioxide gas emissions … Continue reading Why Solar Power Can’t Meet Net Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions Targets
‘Green’ Energy Myth Exposed: Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam Built On Perpetual Lies
The wind and solar industries were founded on myth, built on lies and run on subsidies. The only thing they are capable of producing on a consistent basis are Pinocchio-style whoppers, starting with the notion that wind and solar power are actually good for the environment. Breached promises about delivering power on demand are met … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Myth Exposed: Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam Built On Perpetual Lies
New Dark Age: Wind & Solar Transition to State-wide Blackouts & Unaffordable Power Prices
Renewable energy rent-seekers and politicos have been gripped by a sense of palpable panic: the mob won’t tolerate blackouts for very long, and repeated power rationing will have the same incendiary effect on public sentiment. The destruction of reliable and affordable power supplies caused by chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar was perfectly … Continue reading New Dark Age: Wind & Solar Transition to State-wide Blackouts & Unaffordable Power Prices
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
