Captain Chaos: Intermittent Wind & Solar Destroying Australia’s Eastern Power Grid
‘System’ and ‘reliability’ were once synonymous with Australia’s power grid. Not so, anymore, thanks to chaotically intermittent wind and solar.

Hypocrites Playground: Australian Renewable Energy Policy Driven By Virtue Signalling Halfwits
Reading this in Australia? Then you’re doing so, thanks to coal. You might be doing so thanks to nuclear power, if only the dimwits that profess to run this country hadn’t banned it. On any given day, between 70 and 80% of what flows through Australia’s Eastern Grid comes from coal-fired power plants. Of course, … Continue reading Hypocrites Playground: Australian Renewable Energy Policy Driven By Virtue Signalling Halfwits
Australia’s Giant Renewables Rip-Off: Counting The Colossal Cost of Pointless Virtue Signalling
Australia’s obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar has absolutely nothing to do with the climate.
