South Australians know an awful lot about sweating in the dark and, thanks to their fixation on wind and solar power, its hapless proletariat will get to learn a whole lot more. Renowned by the renewable cult as Australia’s ‘wind and solar capital’, SA suffers Australia’s highest power prices and, quite naturally, Australia’s highest rate … Continue reading Beyond Help: Power Rationing New Normal in Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ South Australia
Solar Slaves: China Dominates Market For Solar Panels Using Forced Uighur Labour
The smugness exhibited by the owners of solar panels is in its own special class. Pious and self-righteous, these characters are quick to pontificate about their holier than thou credentials. Of course, plastering one’s roof with solar panels is all about saving the planet; and has nothing to do with bleeding their neighbours dry - … Continue reading Solar Slaves: China Dominates Market For Solar Panels Using Forced Uighur Labour
Not So Safe: Spontaneous Wind Turbine Fires Pose Mortal Threat to Life & Property
STT has covered wind turbine fires dozens of times, including those which have sparked out-of-control bushfires, placing life at mortal risk. Contrary to their ‘super-safe’, ‘clean’, ‘green’ image, giant industrial wind turbines are the perfect incendiary device. Around the world, hundreds have exploded into in palls of smoke and balls of flame – in the … Continue reading Not So Safe: Spontaneous Wind Turbine Fires Pose Mortal Threat to Life & Property
Busting The Renewable Energy ‘Storage’ Myth: It’s All About The Numbers (And The Weather)
Promoters reckon the hopeless intermittency of wind and solar can cured by “storing” it - using insanely expensive lithium batteries or pumped hydro or something vaguely resembling a perpetual motion machine. None of the charlatans pushing the grid-scale storage of electricity generated by subsidised wind and solar have apparently cottoned on to the laws of … Continue reading Busting The Renewable Energy ‘Storage’ Myth: It’s All About The Numbers (And The Weather)
Death Dodgers: On How to Avoid Being Impaled by Flying Wind Turbine Blade Chunks
With thousands of these things being speared into the backyards of closely settled rural communities, the risk of death and serious injury, only increases. The wind industry (which really only got off the ground in the late 1990s and still generates a trifling amount of electricity) has clocked up around 220 fatalities, - see the helpful … Continue reading Death Dodgers: On How to Avoid Being Impaled by Flying Wind Turbine Blade Chunks
Fossil Foiled: Climate Industrial Complex Can’t Curb China’s Insatiable Demand for Coal-Fired Power
The growth in China’s demand for coal-fired power - and the construction of new plants to generate it - is a case of full steam ahead. Where the climate industrial complex is delighted by the destruction of reliable and affordable power supplies in the West, it stands powerless against China’s insatiable demand for coal-fired electricity. … Continue reading Fossil Foiled: Climate Industrial Complex Can’t Curb China’s Insatiable Demand for Coal-Fired Power
Want to Waste a Small Fortune? Try Turning Wind & Solar Power Into Hydrogen Gas
Want to make a small fortune? Then start with a very large one and use it to turn wind and solar power into hydrogen gas. Renewables obsessed governments around the world are now talking up hydrogen gas as if they’d just discovered the secret plans for a perpetual motion machine. It takes a staggering degree … Continue reading Want to Waste a Small Fortune? Try Turning Wind & Solar Power Into Hydrogen Gas
It’s Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power That’s Powering Australia & Will Be For Years to Come
Another burst of calm weather has proved the point: anyone who believes wind power is a meaningful power source, is delusional. The wind and solar cult keep telling us that we’re a heartbeat away from an all wind and sun powered future. The same crowd also claims that coal-fired power is dead as the dodo. … Continue reading It’s Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power That’s Powering Australia & Will Be For Years to Come
Nuclear: Time to Back The Safest System Power Generation Of Them All
The renewable energy cult keeps telling us that the only way forward is backwards: ie a life dependent upon the time of day and the weather. Of course, if anyone wants hot showers and cold beer, wind and solar haven’t a hope of delivering them on cue. It’s passing strange that the same crowd that … Continue reading Nuclear: Time to Back The Safest System Power Generation Of Them All
Green New Deal = Pointless Posturing: Joe Biden’s Trillion Dollar Wind & Solar Boondoggle
The only obvious point to Biden’s ‘Green’ New Deal is lining the pockets of crony capitalists and keeping lobbying rent seekers happy. Hundreds of $billions more are set to be squandered on utterly pointless wind and solar. A point which ought to be pretty obvious to Americans, after millions experienced the mass blackouts suffered across … Continue reading Green New Deal = Pointless Posturing: Joe Biden’s Trillion Dollar Wind & Solar Boondoggle
