The wind industry’s financial misery is spreading like the toxic junk from disintegrating turbine blades that’s covering vast tracts of the Atlantic coastline. Once bullish forecasts for giant offshore wind turbine projects these days sound like suicide pacts involving other people’s money. Loose talk about mega-offshore projects has been replaced by massive and mounting losses … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Share Prices Plummet As More Offshore Wind Projects Get Scrapped
‘Renewables’ Reversal: Rural Communities Reject Grand Wind & Solar Rollout
Rejecting the overtures of liars and scammers is easy. For years the wind and solar industries have made an art form of both. Now, slowly but surely, communities have learned to spot the lies and community defenders are driving the scammers out of town. STT recently reported on the growing number of landholders who are … Continue reading ‘Renewables’ Reversal: Rural Communities Reject Grand Wind & Solar Rollout
Mission Net-Zero: Climate Cult Determined To Destroy Civilisation From Within
A band of miserable, human-hating neo-Marxists are out to wreck everything and ruin your lives. Their first target is reliable and affordable energy. The main premise is that abundant energy use is wrecking the weather in strange, new and unforeseen ways. Although, the cultist prefers phrases such as ‘catastrophic climate change’, ‘lethal humidity’ or ‘global … Continue reading Mission Net-Zero: Climate Cult Determined To Destroy Civilisation From Within
Dumping The ‘Clean’ Energy Mess Right In Your Backyard
The anything inevitable about the so-called wind and solar transition is that people inevitably conclude the whole thing is an environmental and economic fraud. There’s nothing ‘clean’, ‘green’ or even vaguely ‘renewable’ about solar panels and wind turbines. Which are utterly pointless, because they can’t deliver power as and when we need it. Solar panel … Continue reading Dumping The ‘Clean’ Energy Mess Right In Your Backyard
Utter Madness: Solar Rush Destroys Germany’s Power Grid
Germany’s grand wind and solar transition is delivering perfectly predictable chaos. So much so its power grid is being driven to the brink of total collapse by the unchecked (and heavily subsidised) increase in intermittent solar generation, both large-scale and domestic. Those in charge of the grid have been pointing out the risk for years … Continue reading Utter Madness: Solar Rush Destroys Germany’s Power Grid
Environmental Insensitivity: Electric Vehicles Driven By Moral Piety & Gross Hypocrisy
The Electric Vehicle crowd are struggling to deflect attention from the disastrous environmental impacts caused by their shiny new Teslas. Wedded to their own virtuous piety, EV owners evidently ignore the hypocrisy that sits at the heart of every EV: a lithium-ion battery. The lithium-ion battery, whether it’s used to power an all-EV or as … Continue reading Environmental Insensitivity: Electric Vehicles Driven By Moral Piety & Gross Hypocrisy
Life Support: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Keeping the Lights On
Thanks to their chaotic intermittency, any increase in wind and solar capacity brings with it their capacity to bring down whole power grids. In Australia, the only thing preventing a total system black are its remaining coal-fired power plants. The very plants that the massive subsidies, punitive mandates and ludicrous wind and solar targets are … Continue reading Life Support: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Keeping the Lights On
Truth in Numbers: Cheap ‘Renewables’ Claim Smashed by Crushing Power Bills
Subsidised wind and solar are the principal reason for rocketing power prices, and rocketing power prices are the principal reason for rocketing inflation. Branded as “cost of living pressures” the rapid doubling and tripling of retail power costs are always and everywhere about the market destruction caused by massive subsidies to intermittent and unreliable wind … Continue reading Truth in Numbers: Cheap ‘Renewables’ Claim Smashed by Crushing Power Bills
All Hail Nuclear: Because Solar Panels Can’t Survive Hailstorms or Hurricanes
Solar panels deliver power for around 6 hours a day, struggle during wet/cloudy weather and a decent hailstorm or hurricane wipes them out completely. Anyone recommending solar power as a solution to our growing need for electrical energy needs their head read. Certain parts of the world suffer regular, violent hailstorms, where hailstones outsize golf … Continue reading All Hail Nuclear: Because Solar Panels Can’t Survive Hailstorms or Hurricanes
No Deal: More Panicked Farmers Join Rush to Rip-up Contracts to Host Wind Turbines
Farmers who’ve agreed to have wind turbines on their land are tearing up their contracts, and those thinking about entering such agreements are rejecting the offers made by wind power outfits, out of hand. It’s a MAJOR problem for rent-seekers and their political enablers. And their panic is palpable and hysterical, at once. In one … Continue reading No Deal: More Panicked Farmers Join Rush to Rip-up Contracts to Host Wind Turbines
