Tall Texan Tales: Hyperbolic Claims About Wind & Solar Performance in Texas Are Pure Nonsense

It takes more than audacity to promote an all wind and sun powered future - it requires the deluded to make nonsense sound reasonable.

Fantastic stories continue to appear about our imminent transition to a world that runs entirely on 100% … Continue reading Fantastic Nonsense: Claims About All Wind & Solar Powered Future Completely Implausible

Grubby ‘Green’: Sierra Club Pockets $Millions Plugging Environment Wrecking Wind Projects

  The only way of explaining the push for subsidised wind and solar is money. And when we say money, we mean hundreds of billions of dollars of other people’s money. In Australia alone, the Federal Government’s Large-Scale Renewable Energy Target will redirect over $60 billion in subsidies to wind and large-scale solar operators (all drawn from … Continue reading Grubby ‘Green’: Sierra Club Pockets $Millions Plugging Environment Wrecking Wind Projects

Trawlermen Furious: Rhode Island’s Fisherman Tell Wind Developer to Stick Its Turbines Where It Hurts

America Unleashed: Growing Rural Anger Sees More US States Ban New Wind Power Projects

Callously wrecking rural communities, it’s no wonder that big wind is struggling in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.

Litigation Breakout: More US Wind Farm Noise Victims Sue Developers for Nuisance

Wind developers face liability in the millions for the nuisance caused by unrelenting, turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound. Litigation is where the rubber hits the road: myths get replaced with facts; evidence overtakes spin and propaganda. Court rooms (and where they determine the facts, juries) strike fear into the (ordinarily icy) hearts of those … Continue reading Litigation Breakout: More US Wind Farm Noise Victims Sue Developers for Nuisance

Suckers Sign Here: Wind Turbine Hosts Taken For Fools By Developers in One-Sided Land Contracts

The great wind power fraud depends on a few gullible land owners signing up to host turbines, just to pocket a few pieces of silver -selling 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. Lured by annual licence fees of around $10-15,000 per turbine, … Continue reading Suckers Sign Here: Wind Turbine Hosts Taken For Fools By Developers in One-Sided Land Contracts

Run Aground: Intermittent Offshore Wind Power Costs 25 Times More Than Ever-Reliable Coal, Gas & Nuclear

Wind power is a pointless nonsense: 100% of its capacity must be backed up 100% of the time with a meaningful, conventional generation source: coal, gas, hydro or nuclear. That grouping never needs ‘backup’, ‘firming’, batteries or prayers to the Wind Gods and such like; they just work, whatever the weather, 24 x 365. Whereas, … Continue reading Run Aground: Intermittent Offshore Wind Power Costs 25 Times More Than Ever-Reliable Coal, Gas & Nuclear

Climate Con-Job: You Know It’s a Ponzi Scheme When Pure Fantasy Has a Colossal Price

The wind industry is just the latest and largest in a long line of great Ponzi schemes, like the South-Sea Bubble and Dutch tulip mania. In the wind industry, the scam is all about pitching bogus projected returns (based on overblown wind “forecasts”) (see our posts here and here and here and here); claiming that wind turbines will run for 25 years, without the need … Continue reading Climate Con-Job: You Know It’s a Ponzi Scheme When Pure Fantasy Has a Colossal Price

Indiana Insanity: Power Prices Set to Rocket with Grand Wind & Solar Power Push

  Renewable energy ‘champion’ South Australia blew up its last coal-fired power plant last year and now suffers the world’s highest power prices, mass load shedding and blackouts. In a case of déjà vu all over again, the Hoosier state, Indiana wants to follow SA’s idiotic example. Those behind it have no hesitation in turning … Continue reading Indiana Insanity: Power Prices Set to Rocket with Grand Wind & Solar Power Push
