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
Wind developers ran aground off the New Jersey coast, with fishermen literally telling them to F%*#k Off: Deepwater in Deep Trouble: Fishermen Tell Off-Shore Wind Farm Developers to F@*#K Off Now it's the trawlermen who work off Rhode Island who've told a wind developer to stick its wind turbines where the sun don’t shine. RI fishing professionals … Continue reading 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. While a few utterly deluded Democrats are keen to take Americans down the rabbit hole, with claims that an all wind and sun powered future is just a heartbeat away (for … Continue reading America Unleashed: Growing Rural Anger Sees More US States Ban New Wind Power Projects
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
Dead End Power Trip: Land Hungry Wind Power Always a Problem & Never a Solution
Wind power is a problem without a solution. Output collapses when breezes turn to zephyrs and when bluster turns to a gale: wind turbines automatically shut off as wind speeds reach 25 m/s (90km/h, 55mp/h or 48 knots). As South Australians found out on 28 September 2016 - when the whole State went black, … Continue reading Dead End Power Trip: Land Hungry Wind Power Always a Problem & Never a Solution
Hot Stuff: Instead of Cooling the Planet, Harvard Studies Find Wind Turbines Raise Local Temperatures by 1.5°C
As the mantra has it, wind turbines are the perfect panacea for rising temperatures. Panic has spread about the planet’s temperature rising a couple of notches (apparently an increase of just 1.5°C means instant disaster and pumping it up by 2°C means an irreversible catastrophe). Now it seems that these things are playing their part … Continue reading Hot Stuff: Instead of Cooling the Planet, Harvard Studies Find Wind Turbines Raise Local Temperatures by 1.5°C
