As the mantra has it, wind turbines are the perfect panacea for rising temperatures. Panic has spread about the planet’s temperature rising a couple of notches (apparently an increase of just 1.5°C means instant disaster and pumping it up by 2°C means an irreversible catastrophe). Now it seems that these things are playing their part … Continue reading Hot Stuff: Instead of Cooling the Planet, Harvard Studies Find Wind Turbines Raise Local Temperatures by 1.5°C
Hopelessly Helpless: German Wind Power Fails 93.3% Of The Time & Collapses in Minutes
When the challenge is thrown at wind power proponents about its hopeless intermittency, like a drug addict, the answer is always “more”. More of the same, more turbines, more panels, more subsidies, more transmission network capacity, more non-existent mega batteries, well, just more. Germany is held up as the shining example of what our … Continue reading Hopelessly Helpless: German Wind Power Fails 93.3% Of The Time & Collapses in Minutes
Staggering Cost: Offshore Wind Power 25 Times More Expensive Than Coal, Gas & Nuclear
Wind power is utterly pointless on every level, having been abandoned centuries ago for pretty obvious reasons, starting with the weather. The oft heard retort from those fighting the prospect of wind turbines being speared into their backyards, is “why don’t they put them offshore?” These are the characters who are simply too gutless to … Continue reading Staggering Cost: Offshore Wind Power 25 Times More Expensive Than Coal, Gas & Nuclear
Scoundrel’s Paradise: Subsidised Wind & Solar The Greatest Scam on Earth
The only way of explaining the push for subsidised wind and solar is money. And when we say money, we mean hundreds of billions of dollars of other people’s money. In Australia alone, the Federal Government’s Large-Scale Renewable Energy Target will redirect over $60 billion in subsidies to wind and large-scale solar operators (all … Continue reading Scoundrel’s Paradise: Subsidised Wind & Solar The Greatest Scam on Earth
Total Flop: After 30 Years & Massive Subsidies, Wind & Solar Satisfies 1.1% of Global Energy Demand
The idea that one day soon we’ll all be powered by sunshine and breezes is infantile nonsense. No modern economy has ever powered itself entirely with wind and solar power. Still, we’re continually berated with the notion that our ‘transition’ to all wind and sun powered future is ‘inevitable’. Step back for a moment and … Continue reading Total Flop: After 30 Years & Massive Subsidies, Wind & Solar Satisfies 1.1% of Global Energy Demand
‘Green’ Energy Guinea Pigs: Wind Industry’s American Victims Monitored for Infrasound Effects on Heart & Health
STT recently reported on the German government’s efforts to erase data that shows residents are exposed to levels of wind turbine infrasound dangerous to health. Evidence proving the unnecessary harm done to wind farm neighbours by wind turbine noise mounts by the day: Germany’s Max Planck Institute has identified sub-audible infrasound as the cause of stress, sleep … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Guinea Pigs: Wind Industry’s American Victims Monitored for Infrasound Effects on Heart & Health
Renewable Energy ‘Transition’: More Wind Power, Higher Prices, More Blackouts
The chaos that comes with intermittent wind and solar get serious in summer, when demand surges, the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. This summer, the barbecue stopper will literally be another round of what’s euphemistically called “demand management”: Soviet era power rationing, an integral part of Australia’s ludicrous attempt to run on sunshine … Continue reading Renewable Energy ‘Transition’: More Wind Power, Higher Prices, More Blackouts
MP Demands Wind Farm Moratorium: Rigged & Pointless Noise Rules ‘Rotten to the Core’
The wind industry is what it is thanks to naïve, gullible and pliant politicians. But not every MP drank the Kool-Aid. One who didn’t is SA Best Member of the Legislative Council, Connie Bonaros. South Australia is the place that set and met its very own ludicrous 50% Renewable Energy Target. For that it … Continue reading MP Demands Wind Farm Moratorium: Rigged & Pointless Noise Rules ‘Rotten to the Core’
Volt Wars: Why Your Neighbour’s Solar Panels Are Cooking Your Computer & Blowing Your Lightglobes, Etc
Electricity generation started off as an extension of science. These days, it’s all about vanity and virtue signalling. Not least those millions of shiny solar panels, which we’ve all helped subsidise - to allow our neighbours to bask in their own virtuous glow. At the theoretical level - when the sun is up and the … Continue reading Volt Wars: Why Your Neighbour’s Solar Panels Are Cooking Your Computer & Blowing Your Lightglobes, Etc
Silent Killer: Why Wind Turbine Infrasound Causes Serious Health Problems for Wind Farm Neighbours
Evidence proving the unnecessary harm done to wind farm neighbours by wind turbine noise mounts by the day: Germany’s Max Planck Institute has identified sub-audible infrasound as the cause of stress, sleep disruption and more (see our post here); and a Swedish group have shown that it’s the pulsing nature of low-frequency wind turbine noise … Continue reading Silent Killer: Why Wind Turbine Infrasound Causes Serious Health Problems for Wind Farm Neighbours
