The true cost of wind power is staggering and, despite wild claims to the contrary, is becoming more even expensive, not less so. Dr John Constable and Gordon Hughes have done what the mainstream media have never done and what renewable energy rent seekers would rather they didn’t: they’ve opened the books of account to … Continue reading Wind Industry Claims Scorched: Wind Power Costs Are Increasing Not Decreasing
Impossible Dream: Why Promise Of All Wind & Sun Powered Future Is Complete Nonsense
The dream of an all wind and sun powered future is more like a recurring nightmare: chaotically intermittent, critically dependent upon massive and endless subsidies and environmentally destructive, the idea that millions of giant industrial wind turbines and seas of solar panels will somehow benefit the planet beggars belief. In two detailed and well-crafted videos … Continue reading Impossible Dream: Why Promise Of All Wind & Sun Powered Future Is Complete Nonsense
Lingering Legacy: Millions of Toxic Solar Panels That Can’t Be Recycled Destined for Landfills
Around the globe, millions upon millions of solar panels have reached their use by dates; they can’t be recycled, which means they’re destined for the local dump. Each panel is a veritable toxic cocktail of gallium arsenide, tellurium, silver, crystalline silicon, lead, cadmium and other heavy metals. As the stuff leeches into the water table, … Continue reading Lingering Legacy: Millions of Toxic Solar Panels That Can’t Be Recycled Destined for Landfills
Energy Unplugged: Government Plans to Cut Your Power Whenever Wind & Solar Output Collapses
Visit the Third World and you’ll quickly understand the importance of having power as and when you need it. In the Western World, an obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar will save you the trip. Wind and solar ‘powered’ South Australians and Californians know all about Third World power supplies - with routine rationing, … Continue reading Energy Unplugged: Government Plans to Cut Your Power Whenever Wind & Solar Output Collapses
RE Rent Seekers Furious: Trump Sinks USA’s Offshore Wind Industry
Never a fan of the wind industry, Donald Trump has just destroyed its prospects all along America’s Atlantic coast. Trump’s ban on offshore drilling for oil and gas, has the altogether brilliant side-effect of preventing any more offshore wind turbines from cluttering up the coastlines of several states from Florida to North Carolina, with his … Continue reading RE Rent Seekers Furious: Trump Sinks USA’s Offshore Wind Industry
Sweating It: Renewable Energy Crisis Means Australians Can’t Run Air-Conditioners During Heatwaves
Once upon a time Australians enjoyed reliable and affordable power, but that was before heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar entered the scene. Over the last few summers, Australians have been treated to power rationing and load shedding, as well as the odd mass blackout. These events have an uncanny correlation with … Continue reading Sweating It: Renewable Energy Crisis Means Australians Can’t Run Air-Conditioners During Heatwaves
Hydrogen Hyperbole: Debunking Overblown Claims That Hydrogen Can Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Renewable energy rent seekers claim converting useless, unpredictable and unreliable wind and solar power into hydrogen gas is a cinch. Sure, the notion of turning useless electricity into something that can be used as and when consumers need it - rather than something that depends on the whims of mother nature - makes sense - … Continue reading Hydrogen Hyperbole: Debunking Overblown Claims That Hydrogen Can Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Wicked Waste: Snowy 2.0 Pumped Hydro Project Australia’s Biggest Energy White Elephant
With a price tag in excess of $10 billion, Australia’s biggest pumped hydro project, Snowy 2.0, is easily its single biggest white elephant. Sure, the Feds have already squandered magnitudes more on subsidies and soft loans to wind and solar. And the purported benefit of Snowy 2.0 is to use excess wind and solar power … Continue reading Wicked Waste: Snowy 2.0 Pumped Hydro Project Australia’s Biggest Energy White Elephant
From Little Things Big Things Grow: Australia’s Nuclear Powered Future Starts With SMRs
STT promotes nuclear power because it works: safe, affordable and reliable it’s the perfect foil for those obsessed about carbon dioxide gas – because it doesn’t generate any, while generating power on demand. One of the feeble ‘arguments’ against it, is that nuclear power plants are of such vast scale that they take longer to … Continue reading From Little Things Big Things Grow: Australia’s Nuclear Powered Future Starts With SMRs
Why Wind & Solar Are Pointless: ‘Renewables Will Power Us’ Myth, Smashed Again
It takes a special brand of delusion to believe that we’re a heartbeat away from an all wind and sun powered future. But that’s the premise advanced by wind and sun worshippers and the rent seekers that profit from the greatest subsidy scam in human history. Putting aside their chaotic intermittency, the staggering amount … Continue reading Why Wind & Solar Are Pointless: ‘Renewables Will Power Us’ Myth, Smashed Again
