Not Cheap: Offshore Wind Power 4 Times the Cost of Gas and Nuclear Power
New Yorkers are paying a huge price of offshore wind power, which is 4 times the cost of their conventional supplies from gas and nuclear. So much for all that loose talk about wind power being cheap, clean and green. As Willis Eschenbach points out below, for an industry that brags about cost, wind power … Continue reading Not Cheap: Offshore Wind Power 4 Times the Cost of Gas and Nuclear Power
Never-Ending Story: Why Wind & Solar Wouldn’t Exist Without Massive Subsidies
The combined cost of renewable energy certificates, tax credits, soft loans and other subsidies is staggering. The total cost of which always lands with the power consumer and/or taxpayer, with the wholly unjustified benefits pocketed by crony capitalists, carpetbaggers and rent-seekers. The subsidised wind and solar scam has been running full throttle for more than … Continue reading Never-Ending Story: Why Wind & Solar Wouldn’t Exist Without Massive Subsidies
Fahrenheit Rising: Why Wind Turbines Increase Local Average Temperatures
Apart from the tendency of these things to self-incinerate and set the country ablaze, there’s their ability to wreck local weather patterns and, in the mother of all ironies, raise local temperatures - beyond those of the surrounding areas unaffected by these whirling wonders. Spear hundreds of 300m high wind turbines into ocean environments and … Continue reading Fahrenheit Rising: Why Wind Turbines Increase Local Average Temperatures
Offshore Wind Power Carries Colossal Cost and Delivers Zero Benefits
Never capable of delivering power on demand, offshore wind is as pointless as pushing on string. As the most expensive way of (occasionally) generating electricity, only the terminally insane would consider investing a nickel. Which is why rent-seekers rigged the game with massive subsidies, mandates and tax breaks from the get go. The value of … Continue reading Offshore Wind Power Carries Colossal Cost and Delivers Zero Benefits
Hurricane Havoc: Next Big Blow Set to Destroy America’s Offshore Wind Turbines
If brand-new offshore wind turbines are liberating their 100m blades and distributing their toxic entrails along the Atlantic coastline during perfectly calm weather, imagine what a blistering Hurricane might do to the tens of thousands of blades that now flap above the ocean waves. In the video above, a vicious little twister makes short work … Continue reading Hurricane Havoc: Next Big Blow Set to Destroy America’s Offshore Wind Turbines
Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Crushing Power Prices With Much Worse to Come
Think your power bill is crushing now; the worst is yet to come. The grand wind and solar ‘transition’ is - according to the 5 year planners - in its infancy, but already the effects of heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar are being spelt out in record retail power bills. To reach … Continue reading Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Crushing Power Prices With Much Worse to Come
Freezing In The Dark? Just Ask Wind & Solar Generators to ‘Turn It Up’
The inherent absurdity in our headline is precisely the point. No one in touch with reality expects wind power during calm weather or solar power when the sun sets. No one believes that wind and solar generators can simply ‘turn it up’ on a calm night. Oh no, that responsibility is always left to conventional … Continue reading Freezing In The Dark? Just Ask Wind & Solar Generators to ‘Turn It Up’
Trump’s New Nuclear Policy About Making Energy Reliable & Affordable Again
That prosperous economies depend upon reliable and affordable energy, is no secret. Indeed, the destruction of the West is predicated on the destruction of our energy supplies, dressed up in cynical claims about ‘climate action saving the planet’. The United States didn’t become the world’s leading superpower by using sunshine and breezes. It led the … Continue reading Trump’s New Nuclear Policy About Making Energy Reliable & Affordable Again
No Joy In New Jersey: Power Bills Double (Again) In Wind Power Obsessed State
The good folk in New Jersey are just the latest victims of the grand renewable energy ‘transition’. Politicos have backed foreign-owned offshore wind power outfits ahead of local reliable generators and the results are spelt out in black-and-white, with record retail power bills. Retail power prices have doubled in a heartbeat and the socialists in … Continue reading No Joy In New Jersey: Power Bills Double (Again) In Wind Power Obsessed State
