Soviet shortages led to the gag about “what has 100 legs and eats cabbage?” 50 Muscovites lining up to buy sausage. Wind and solar obsessed Germans must feel a little like the USSR’s (unwilling) vegetarians at the moment. Their endless seas of solar panels are plastered thick with snow and ice and, accordingly, producing two … Continue reading Russia Revisited: Germany’s Winter Wind & Solar Drought Results in Soviet Style Power Rationing
Sámi Sue: Reindeer Herders Fighting For Existence Against Norway’s Wind Industry
The only way for communities to beat wind power outfits is to get organised and fight, like fury. Knowing the tricks of your opponent’s subsidy-fuelled trade helps, too. Which is the very reason for this site. The first insight to grasp is the wind industry is not there to help you; it’s there to destroy … Continue reading Sámi Sue: Reindeer Herders Fighting For Existence Against Norway’s Wind Industry
Clear & Present Danger: Industrial Wind Turbines Pose Permanent Wildfire Threat
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 process – each one raining molten metal and over 1,000 litres of flaming gear oil and hydraulic fluid (see our post here) … Continue reading Clear & Present Danger: Industrial Wind Turbines Pose Permanent Wildfire Threat
New York Con-Job: Trillion Dollar Batteries Not Included In All-Renewables Hoax
The wind and solar scam attracts scoundrels, whose audacity is matched by their capacity to spin fantastic tales. One of which is the claim that giant batteries are all that’s needed to deliver an all wind and sun powered future. It’s a fiction, to be sure. But, as the old propaganda adage has it, the … Continue reading New York Con-Job: Trillion Dollar Batteries Not Included In All-Renewables Hoax
Where Never Reliable Wind & Solar Perpetually Fail, Ever Reliable Nuclear Power Just Works
Renewable energy rent seekers hate nuclear power for the same reasons we promote it: it works 24 x 365, whatever the weather and delivers power that people can afford. Anyone claiming that carbon dioxide gas is destroying the planet and not promoting nuclear power simply can’t be taken seriously. Neither can anyone still suggesting that … Continue reading Where Never Reliable Wind & Solar Perpetually Fail, Ever Reliable Nuclear Power Just Works
Blackout Bombshell: Unreliable Wind & Solar Delivering Europe’s New Dark Ages
Germany’s power grid is on the brink of collapse, thanks to chaotically intermittent wind and solar; a complete power supply failure is just a heartbeat away. As winter bites and power use soars, dead calm conditions mean there is little or no wind power and solar panels crusted in snow and ice are producing nothing … Continue reading Blackout Bombshell: Unreliable Wind & Solar Delivering Europe’s New Dark Ages
What’s Wrong with the Green New Deal? We’ll Start With the Economics
It took Americans a generation to become energy self-sufficient, but the Democrats will start destroying all that as soon as Joe Biden gets the keys to the White House. The Democrat's Green New Deal was cooked up by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ed Markey, the kind of know-it-all socialists who can destroy economic prosperity without raising … Continue reading What’s Wrong with the Green New Deal? We’ll Start With the Economics
How to Destroy Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies: Just Add Subsidised Wind & Solar
Australians once enjoyed the cheapest and most reliable power in the world; now they suffer the world’s highest prices and they’re lucky to get power, at all. Throwing billions at weather-dependent wind and sunshine dependent solar has had the inevitable consequence of destroying both the reliability and affordability electricity, in a country blessed with vast … Continue reading How to Destroy Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies: Just Add Subsidised Wind & Solar
Command & Control: Subsidised Wind Power Central to Britain’s Great Socialist Reset
As Margaret Thatcher put it: “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.” That adage, however, doesn’t appear to trouble Britain’s current PM, Boris Johnson, whose plan to squander a further £50,000,000,000 on subsidies and over-the-market contracts for intermittent offshore wind power beggars belief. But that colossal crony-capitalist boondoggle, … Continue reading Command & Control: Subsidised Wind Power Central to Britain’s Great Socialist Reset
No Renewables Recharge: Busting the ‘Big Batteries Will Save Wind & Solar’ Myth
You know the wind and solar industries are in trouble when they’re reduced to muttering about humongous batteries saving their bacon. Around the world, renewable energy rent-seekers have been furiously peddling the myth that mega-batteries are a free and easy solution to the hopeless intermittency of weather-dependent wind and solar. The line goes that giant … Continue reading No Renewables Recharge: Busting the ‘Big Batteries Will Save Wind & Solar’ Myth
