There’s nothing funny about being frozen to death in the dark. More than half of the 200 Texans who died during the mass blackouts that struck the midwest during February this year died of hypothermia, thanks to a lack of power. In all some 4.5 million households were left freezing in the dark when solar … Continue reading Deadly Serious: During Extreme Weather Unreliable Wind & Solar Threaten Life & Limb
Burning Cash: Renewable Energy Slush Fund Wasting $Billions of Taxpayers’ Money
If massive subsidies tacked onto your power bill and directed to wind and solar generators wasn’t enough, there’s a government backed slush fund channelling hundreds of $millions into the wind and solar scam, as well. In Australia the Clean Energy Finance Corporation is a Federal government backed outfit that has been doling out soft money … Continue reading Burning Cash: Renewable Energy Slush Fund Wasting $Billions of Taxpayers’ Money
Rapacious Renewables: How The Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Is Devouring the Planet
Crony capitalists aren’t just promoting subsidised wind and solar, they see subsidised Electric Vehicles as yet another means of lining their pockets with taxpayers’ money. The marketing pitch is that this is all for the good of the Planet. Whirling wonders lovingly caressing breezes to capture ‘free energy’; energy-rich sunbeams falling gently onto sheets of … Continue reading Rapacious Renewables: How The Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Is Devouring the Planet
Russian Resurgence: Putin’s Grand Plan to Meet Insatiable Demand for Coal in Asia
As the wind and solar cult would have it, ‘coal is dead’ and wind and solar power are the gloating villains that killed it. Well, that’s the meme, anyway. Back on Earth, coal-fired power and the coal industry that fuels it are in very robust health, indeed. Outside of the virtue signalling Western nations that … Continue reading Russian Resurgence: Putin’s Grand Plan to Meet Insatiable Demand for Coal in Asia
Nuclear Renaissance: Looming Net-Zero Targets Driving Uranium Miners’ Share Price Surge
Share prices in uranium miners are on the rise, much to the horror of the wind and solar ‘industries’. Despite efforts of the wind and solar cult to unwind nuclear power in Germany, and elsewhere, the recent share market surge suggests there’s a resurgence of interest in uranium miners - share prices in one Australian … Continue reading Nuclear Renaissance: Looming Net-Zero Targets Driving Uranium Miners’ Share Price Surge
Carcass Count Mounts: Wind Industry’s Mass Eagle Slaughter Continues Around the World
As the bird and bat carcass count mounts, it gets harder to ignore the wind industry’s bloody and unnecessary slaughter of our feathered friends. Those running ‘interference’ for the wind industry claim wind turbines couldn’t harm a fly, let alone kill birds of any consequence. Apparently having no experience of apex predators like Eagles, Kites, … Continue reading Carcass Count Mounts: Wind Industry’s Mass Eagle Slaughter Continues Around the World
Transmission Break: Frequently Faulty Cables Costing Offshore Wind Power Generators Hundreds of $Millions
Turns out offshore wind power is more financial heartbreak than cash cow. Thanks to the phenomenal cost of repairing its undersea cables, Denmark’s Orsted is literally bleeding cash. The cost of fixing faulty cables connecting their turbines to each other and transmission facilities onshore is already in the hundreds of $millions, and set to rise … Continue reading Transmission Break: Frequently Faulty Cables Costing Offshore Wind Power Generators Hundreds of $Millions
Subsidy Bonanza: Wind Industry Demands Even More Subsidies for Pointless Transmission Lines
Wind power will never truly compete with reliable generators, hence the endless subsidies. Now, the wind industry wants even more subsidies to pay for the transmission lines that would allow it to send its chaotic wares halfway across Australia. The claim is that another so-called ‘interconnector’ will help South Australian wind power outfits to deliver … Continue reading Subsidy Bonanza: Wind Industry Demands Even More Subsidies for Pointless Transmission Lines
Black Days & Darker Nights: Engineers Spell Out Threat Posed by Increasing Reliance On Wind & Solar
Pin your power supply hopes on sunshine and breezes, and get prepared for mixed results. South Australians, Californians and Texans know what comes from an overreliance on the unreliables, with plenty of experience of weather-related load shedding and mass blackouts. Increasing dependence on chaotically intermittent wind and solar is the price we’ve paid for allowing … Continue reading Black Days & Darker Nights: Engineers Spell Out Threat Posed by Increasing Reliance On Wind & Solar
Nuclear Power: Quite Simply the World’s Cleanest & Safest Power Generation System
The profiteers that wallow in the subsidies for unreliable and intermittent wind and solar hate nuclear, principally because it works, 24x365, irrespective of the weather or time-of-day. Nuclear power is the only stand-alone power generation source that does not emit carbon dioxide gas during the process. And by reference to the amount of power it … Continue reading Nuclear Power: Quite Simply the World’s Cleanest & Safest Power Generation System
