Faced with rocketing power prices and a grid on the brink of collapse, the Morrison Federal government remains committed to the policies that caused the debacle. Instead of ensuring the survival of Australia’s extensive coal-fired power fleet and building new High Efficiency Low Emissions coal-plants, the PM and his Energy Minister have selected a … Continue reading S-O-S: Coal-Fired Power Only Answer to Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
Gassed Up: All-In Policy Brawl Over Renewables Driven Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
The adage that success has a thousand fathers, whereas failure’s an orphan applies to Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy disaster, one that no one wants to own. The Federal Coalition’s ‘plan’ to power Australia with gas-fired power plants it has yet to build, with gas supplies it does not have, sounds more like the ‘last … Continue reading Gassed Up: All-In Policy Brawl Over Renewables Driven Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
No Future: Australia’s Renewable Energy Roadmap = Road To Economic Ruin & Despair
Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity was entirely self-inflicted; the consequence of an obsession with heavily subsidised and totally unreliable wind and solar. The recent policy announcement by PM, Scott Morrison (referred to as his ‘Energy Roadmap’) is like using a Band-Aid to treat a severed leg. Everything that features as an ‘answer’ to … Continue reading No Future: Australia’s Renewable Energy Roadmap = Road To Economic Ruin & Despair
Slash & Burn: Environmentalists Start Counting Destructive Costs of Wind & Solar
Mike Moore’s Planet of The Humans revealed the wholesale environmental destruction caused by wind and solar; the climate cult naturally hated it. The scale of the environmental havoc caused giant wind and solar farms is out of all proportion to the economic benefits they provide; if any. Apart from the subsidies these so-called ‘industries’ attract, STT can’t think … Continue reading Slash & Burn: Environmentalists Start Counting Destructive Costs of Wind & Solar
Power Brawl: German Power Prices Rocket As Excess Wind & Solar Dumped On Neighbours
German energy policy is a fiasco; the so-called energy transition is a debacle. Germans suffer the highest power prices in Europe, all thanks to an obsession with intermittent wind and solar. When the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in, Germany is forced to import huge volumes of power from its neighbours, particularly nuclear-powered France … Continue reading Power Brawl: German Power Prices Rocket As Excess Wind & Solar Dumped On Neighbours
Anti-Nuclear Knuckleheads: Time to Scrap Australia’s Idiotic Ban on Nuclear Power Plants
Australia holds the world’s largest uranium reserves and, despite its shifting policy of limiting the number of mines and states that have banned them, is the world’s third-largest uranium exporter. That Australia, among the world’s largest uranium exporters, doesn’t rely on nuclear power astonishes those from the 30 countries where you’ll find nearly 450 nuclear reactors currently operating – … Continue reading Anti-Nuclear Knuckleheads: Time to Scrap Australia’s Idiotic Ban on Nuclear Power Plants
Pipe Dreams: Quest for All Wind & Solar Powered World Like Searching For Unobtanium
It takes a special brand of delusion to believe that we’ll soon all be powered by nothing but sunshine and breezes. Cynics might suggest that there’s a pretty strong correlation between wishful thinking and endless subsidies to wind and solar. But, apart from rent seeking crony capitalists, there’s still a fair proportion out there who … Continue reading Pipe Dreams: Quest for All Wind & Solar Powered World Like Searching For Unobtanium
Quiet Achiever: While PM Keeps Talking About Gas, Coal Just Keeps On Powering Australia
The Federal Coalition’s ‘plan’ to power Australia with gas-fired power plants it has yet to build, with gas supplies it does not have sounds more like palliative care than a cure for its self-inflicted power pricing and supply calamity. Having wrecked our once reliable grid by subsidising chaotically intermittent wind and solar, it seems it’s … Continue reading Quiet Achiever: While PM Keeps Talking About Gas, Coal Just Keeps On Powering Australia
Ships Ahoy! Giant Diesel-Fuelled Ship Engines ‘Solution’ For Australia’s Renewable Energy Crisis
Australia’s obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar has left it with a power pricing and supply calamity. It’s a disaster that was as predictable, as it was avoidable. To date, the Federal Liberal/National Coalition’s feeble attempts to resolve it provide a study in practised inertia, mixed with a series of pointless Band-Aid ‘solutions’. … Continue reading Ships Ahoy! Giant Diesel-Fuelled Ship Engines ‘Solution’ For Australia’s Renewable Energy Crisis
Déjà vu: ‘New’ Coalition Power Policy Means Australia’s Energy Crisis Continues Unabated
Throttled by Draconian lockdowns, the Australian economy is on life support, the only hope of resuscitating it is by restoring reliable and affordable power, to all and sundry. Last week the Federal Liberal/National Coalition announced what purported to be a cure, but, in reality, it’s more like palliative care. PM, Scott Morrison and his … Continue reading Déjà vu: ‘New’ Coalition Power Policy Means Australia’s Energy Crisis Continues Unabated
