No country has ever powered itself entirely with wind and solar; no country ever will. The idea we'll all be powered exclusively by wind and solar is pure fantasy and talk about giant batteries soon making that pipe dream possible is just as unhinged. The occasional claim that wind and solar satisfied 100% of power … Continue reading Utterly Useless: Wind & Solar Costly, Pointless & Can’t Reduce CO2 Emissions
Wind & Solar Cult Bans Nuclear Power Promoters from Climate Change Conference
The climate cult’s true colours are revealed when it actively agitates against nuclear power; bad enough that they won’t promote it, worse still when they seek to sabotage nuclear power’s prospects, altogether. This is the crowd out to convince us that man-made carbon dioxide gas is “pollution” which, unless you stop generating it, will result … Continue reading Wind & Solar Cult Bans Nuclear Power Promoters from Climate Change Conference
Renewables Rejected: Demand for Reliable & Affordable Power Driving Asian Coal Renaissance
Among the nonsense spouted by wind and solar acolytes is the line that coal is deader than the dodo. While the demise of the hapless, flightless bird was clearly due to human intervention, it’s the demands of humans for reliable and affordable power that’s brought coal back to life, particularly across energy-hungry Asia. The UN/Climate … Continue reading Renewables Rejected: Demand for Reliable & Affordable Power Driving Asian Coal Renaissance

The Hidden Victims of ‘Green’ Virtue Signalling: Renewable Energy Costs Crushing Working Poor
Subsidised wind and solar is a playground for the vain, rich and cynical, and its victims are always on the wrong side of the tracks; unseen and unheard. Energy poverty is now an entrenched feature of first-world economies wherever wind and solar play any prominence in power systems. And it’s not simply the fact that … Continue reading The Hidden Victims of ‘Green’ Virtue Signalling: Renewable Energy Costs Crushing Working Poor
Unnecessary Night-time Nuisance: Why Wind Turbine Noise Is So Much More Annoying After Dark
Delivering a thumping, grinding, mechanical cacophony, industrial wind turbines drive neighbours nuts. But, as a recent study from Flinders University in South Australia has found, there’s a reason why wind turbine noise is so much worse after dark. The pulsing, thumping nature of wind turbine noise - which relates to blades passing the tower - … Continue reading Unnecessary Night-time Nuisance: Why Wind Turbine Noise Is So Much More Annoying After Dark
Follow the Money: Politicians Plugging Wind & Solar Pocketing Untold $Millions
Crony capitalism is the new ‘Green’: every politician plugging wind and solar will eventually be caught pocketing cash for his time and trouble. Sure, there’s an ostensible sense of virtue when an MP propounds renewables as a solution to all the world’s perceived ills. But it doesn’t take much digging to work out precisely why … Continue reading Follow the Money: Politicians Plugging Wind & Solar Pocketing Untold $Millions
Grand RE Scam Revealed: What Subsidised Wind & Solar Power Is Really Costing You
Wind and solar scammers don’t want you to know what's causing your rocketing power bills, and those profiting from endless wind and solar subsidies want to keep it that way. There are a raft of direct and indirect subsidies to wind and solar, which the vaguely interested are able to soon identify. However, it’s the … Continue reading Grand RE Scam Revealed: What Subsidised Wind & Solar Power Is Really Costing You
Subsidised Suicide: How Wind & Solar Carpetbaggers Trashed Australia’s Energy Grid
With abundant supplies of coal, gas and uranium Australia ought to be renowned as an energy superpower. It isn’t. In less than 20 years it deliberately destroyed the most reliable and affordable power generation and delivery system, on earth. It started with subsidies; massive subsidies to wind and solar - both domestic and large-scale - … Continue reading Subsidised Suicide: How Wind & Solar Carpetbaggers Trashed Australia’s Energy Grid
No Serious Contest: Never-Reliable Wind Power Simply Can’t Beat Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power
Any country serious about its energy future soon gets serious about coal-fired power. China, India, Indonesia, Japan and Vietnam are in the process of building 600 new coal-fired power plants, between them, adding to a fleet of hundreds of plants which have been operating for generations. And there’s a reason: coal-fired power is reliable and … Continue reading No Serious Contest: Never-Reliable Wind Power Simply Can’t Beat Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power
