2021’s Renewables Debacle In Review: Fickle Wind & Sun Face Bitter Accusations

Just when the ‘transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future was supposed to be in the bag, thoroughly calm weather dashed all hopes. $Trillions in subsidies have been thrown at wind and solar power outfits, with no end to the largess in sight. All the while, the rent seekers and propagandists have been … Continue reading 2021’s Renewables Debacle In Review: Fickle Wind & Sun Face Bitter Accusations

Cheap Energy Deficit: Climate Industrial Complex Conspires to Impoverish World’s Poorest

Western Nations are determined to prevent the World’s poorest from having cheap and reliable energy, a fact laid plain at the Glasgow gabfest, where the Climate Industrial Complex did its best to ensure that the likes of India will never have any hope of dragging themselves out of agrarian misery and grinding poverty. The wind … Continue reading Cheap Energy Deficit: Climate Industrial Complex Conspires to Impoverish World’s Poorest

Risible Renewables: Weather-Dependent Wind Power – Never There When You Need It Most

Pin your energy needs on the weather, and prepare for disappointment, over and over and over again. South Australians know it, Germans know it, Texans and Californians know it, all too well. In the latter part of 2021, as the Big Calm descended across Western Europe, Brits learned all about it, too. Quietly firing up … Continue reading Risible Renewables: Weather-Dependent Wind Power – Never There When You Need It Most

Reaping The Whirlwind: Europe’s Wind & Solar Obsession Sends Power Prices Rocketing

Europeans have squandered untold $billions on chaotically intermittent wind and solar. The only evident results being routine power rationing, blackouts and power prices doubling every 12 months, or so. The article below from Bloomberg lays it out fairly clearly: those countries obsessed with wind and solar are literally reaping the whirlwind, as power prices spiral … Continue reading Reaping The Whirlwind: Europe’s Wind & Solar Obsession Sends Power Prices Rocketing

Joe Biden’s Suicidal Energy Bill Threatens to Destroy America’s Power Grid

From the outside it looks like treason, to the insider it’s merely the extension of the most massive subsidy scam in history. For nearly 40 years, the wind and solar industries have been telling us that they’ll soon be standing on their own two feet. But their greatest fear is being given the chance to … Continue reading Joe Biden’s Suicidal Energy Bill Threatens to Destroy America’s Power Grid

Furious Fishermen Sue To Stop Offshore Wind Industry Wrecking Fishing Grounds

Always making more enemies than friends, the wind industry is being sued by America’s fishermen to stop it wrecking their fishing grounds and livelihoods. Having ridden roughshod over communities on land for the best part of a generation, the wind industry has been doing so offshore, for more than a decade. But, when it comes … Continue reading Furious Fishermen Sue To Stop Offshore Wind Industry Wrecking Fishing Grounds

Net Zero Madness: Why Wind Power Expansion Plans Don’t Add Up

Akin to pushing on string, you can keep building these things ad infinitum and add nothing in terms of meaningful power generation capacity. It doesn’t matter whether a wind power fleet comprises a hundred, a thousand or a million wind turbines, when the wind stops blowing, they will deliver an almighty, collective doughnut. And it's … Continue reading Net Zero Madness: Why Wind Power Expansion Plans Don’t Add Up

World’s Woeful Wind Power Output Spells Doom For Renewable Energy Rent Seekers

Don McLean’s American Pie was all about the day the music died; 2021 was all about the year that the wind industry died. Its well-worn claim that wind power is just a heartbeat away from replacing meaningful power sources - such as coal, gas and nuclear - took a battering across the globe last year. … Continue reading World’s Woeful Wind Power Output Spells Doom For Renewable Energy Rent Seekers

Guilty: Intermittent Wind & Solar Responsible For Global Power Pricing & Supply Calamity

Europe’s ongoing wind drought (and corresponding wind power output collapse) is a wake-up call for anyone vaguely concerned about energy supplies. Starting in September last year and running for weeks on end, total collapses in wind power output across Western Europe and the UK, forced a wholesale rethink of the maniacal reliance upon wind and … Continue reading Guilty: Intermittent Wind & Solar Responsible For Global Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
