Thanks to coal-fired power, Australia once enjoyed the world’s most reliable and affordable power supply. Not anymore. An obsession with wind and solar - expressed in the form of $70 billion in subsidies, $billions more in government underwritten soft-loans and mandated targets, backed up with punitive fines has sent power prices into orbit. The … Continue reading No Road Back: Obsession with Intermittent Renewables Causes Monster Power Price Surge
Wind Industry Meltdown: North Carolina Set to Slap Total Ban On All New Wind Projects
Wind power projects are at a standstill in North Carolina, following an 18-month moratorium on new wind projects. That ban practically crushed one project that an outfit called Apex Clean Energy had planned for Chowan County. Now, legislation is working its way through North Carolina’s legislature that would result in a total ban on new … Continue reading Wind Industry Meltdown: North Carolina Set to Slap Total Ban On All New Wind Projects
Crookwell Cooked: NSW Planning Dept Slams Chinese Backed Wind Farm Project
The Gullen Range wind farm was a disaster from the get go (see our post here) – with hundreds of homes turned into sonic torture traps (see our post here). There are 32 non-involved residences within 1.5 km of turbines; about 60 within 2 km; and 118 within 3 km. Within 5 km there are … Continue reading Crookwell Cooked: NSW Planning Dept Slams Chinese Backed Wind Farm Project
Batteries Not Included: $Trillions Spent on Storage Won’t Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Chaotic intermittency means wind and solar cannot, and will never, replace coal, gas or nuclear. The fact that wind and solar output plummets whenever the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in has been treated by RE zealots as (yet another) inconvenient truth, that just won’t go away. In the first few years of the … Continue reading Batteries Not Included: $Trillions Spent on Storage Won’t Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Shredded: Wind Industry Safety Claims Shattered as Neighbours Face More Exploding Blades
Claims that 300 tonne turbines are safe as houses fall hollow with each self-immolation, total collapse and ‘component liberation’ event. This is an industry that’s killed around 230, so far. And, with events like the one laid out below, the ‘green’ energy death toll can only rise. Wind turbine heavily damaged in City of Kawartha … Continue reading Shredded: Wind Industry Safety Claims Shattered as Neighbours Face More Exploding Blades
Far Out: German Study Finds Pulsing Wind Farm Infrasound 20 Kilometres From Turbines
Overrun by 30,000 or so giant industrial wind turbines, it’s no surprises that Germans know all about the misery of wind turbine noise. A component of the cacophony of low-frequency, amplitude modulated noise generated by these things occurs in frequencies meant to be below what humans can ordinarily hear. But that does not mean that … Continue reading Far Out: German Study Finds Pulsing Wind Farm Infrasound 20 Kilometres From Turbines
Destination Destruction: Labor’s 50% Renewable Energy Target Means Wholesale Industry Wipe-out
Bill Shorten’s 50% RET is guaranteed to send power prices soaring, destroying whole industries and thousands of well-paid jobs. Shorten is a man ready to tax Australians out of existence, and is salivating at the prospect of delivering his blow-the-joint-up, socialist agenda. To get control of the Parliament, Labor will inevitably team up with … Continue reading Destination Destruction: Labor’s 50% Renewable Energy Target Means Wholesale Industry Wipe-out
Australia’s Self-Inflicted Energy Crisis Screaming Out for Nuclear Powered Solution
Few issues demonstrate how childish the level of political discourse is in Australia than nuclear power. Its mere mention drives the loony-left into apoplexy and moderates into hiding. Australia holds the world’s largest uranium reserves and, despite its limited three mines policy, is the world’s third-largest uranium exporter. So, it generally surprises other members … Continue reading Australia’s Self-Inflicted Energy Crisis Screaming Out for Nuclear Powered Solution
Psycho Simon: Renewable Energy Zealots Incite Terrorism Against Wind & Solar Critics
As a rule, RE zealots are not only stupid and selfish, they’re invariably nasty and prone to fits of outrage and violence. Leading the gang in Australia is silver-spooner, Simon Holmes a Court. Simon has a Masters in Smug, the result of the enormous pile accumulated by his (late) billionaire corporate-raider daddy, Robert. And claims … Continue reading Psycho Simon: Renewable Energy Zealots Incite Terrorism Against Wind & Solar Critics
French Farmers Re-Volt: Cattle Killed by Stray Current Latest Victims of Wind Power Onslaught
Stray current from French wind turbines is killing cattle and their owners are furious. Electricity in the wrong place at the wrong time is a natural born killer. For the best part of a century electricity was generated in an orderly, systematic manner. Over the last decade or so obsession with wind and solar has … Continue reading French Farmers Re-Volt: Cattle Killed by Stray Current Latest Victims of Wind Power Onslaught
