Where a power generation source is of a kind abandoned centuries ago, for pretty obvious reasons – namely, its proven inability to deliver power as and when it’s needed; and which exists, and only exists, by reason of mandates, subsidies, fines and targets, the harm and suffering it causes is wholly unnecessary. Those that continue … Continue reading Wisconsin’s Wind Industry Called to Account for Its Victim’s Wholly Unnecessary Suffering
Australia’s Rocketing Prices & Looming Summer Blackouts Ensure Coal-Fired Power has a Long Way to Run
Reports of the ‘death of coal’ have been greatly exaggerated. Around 80% of Australia’s electricity comes from coal-fired plant; with most of the balance from gas and hydro, in that order. No amount of statistical finessing from the wind and solar industries can budge their presently risible contributions to Australia’s power needs above more … Continue reading Australia’s Rocketing Prices & Looming Summer Blackouts Ensure Coal-Fired Power has a Long Way to Run
RET Driven Power Price Hike Bites: Cost of Australia’s Renewable Energy Madness Crushing Consumer Confidence
Australian power consumers have just started opening their winter power bills, which are fully 20% higher than this time last year. By comparison, Australia’s underlying rate of inflation is around 1.5%. The consequences for the economy, as a whole, are just starting to bite. Restaurants, bars and retailers are copping it from both ends. Business … Continue reading RET Driven Power Price Hike Bites: Cost of Australia’s Renewable Energy Madness Crushing Consumer Confidence
Victorian Police Perplexed: Furious Neighbours Continue to Shoot-Up Noisy Wind Turbines
The photo above was cooked up a couple of years ago by wind industry stooge, Andrew Bray. The stories below, though, are real enough. ‘Could result in death’: shots fired at Waubra wind turbines The Courier Derrick Krusche 27 Sep 2017 Police suspect a long-arm gun such as a rifle was used to shoot turbines … Continue reading Victorian Police Perplexed: Furious Neighbours Continue to Shoot-Up Noisy Wind Turbines
Wind Power: The Mother of All Taxpayer Subsidised Scams
STT has likened it to the great corporate Ponzi schemes, pointing out, just once or twice, that the wind industry is little more than the most recent and elaborate effort to fleece gullible investors, in a list that dates back to “corporate investment classics”, like the South-Sea Bubble and Dutch tulip mania. In the wind … Continue reading Wind Power: The Mother of All Taxpayer Subsidised Scams
Power Consumers’ Punishment Continues, as Energy Giants Chase Phoney ‘Green’ Dollars
Green virtue signalling among Australia’s energy giants is now a ‘thing’. However, dig a little deeper and it’s clear that the thing is all about making money from a gullible proletariat, aided and abetted by a witless media. Fortunately, Terry McCrann isn't among them. BHP displays suicidal tendencies in support of green policies The … Continue reading Power Consumers’ Punishment Continues, as Energy Giants Chase Phoney ‘Green’ Dollars
Why Governments Refuse to Admit the True & Staggering Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar
If the true and staggering cost of subsidised wind and solar power were public knowledge, there would be public outrage. For more than a decade the wind industry and its political enablers have trotted out mythical figures, all based on fanciful modelling, claiming that the total cost of renewable power to consumers is less than … Continue reading Why Governments Refuse to Admit the True & Staggering Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar
Weather Dependent Wind Power: Leaves Hurricane Victims Powerless
Oh, the irony. In one breath we're told that the climate is changing so rapidly - although, these days, most climate alarmists don’t seem prepared to lay a bet on whether things are getting hotter or colder - that carpeting the world in wind turbines and solar panels - which cultists believe will solve the … Continue reading Weather Dependent Wind Power: Leaves Hurricane Victims Powerless

Ian also … Continue reading Ian Plimer: The Climate Change Delusion and The Great Electricity Ripoff
Germany’s Energiewende ‘Blown’ Away: Mutti Merkel’s Mauling Threatens Doom for Subsidised Wind & Solar
Germany’s love affair with wind turbines and solar panels has clearly turned sour. During the winter just gone, with a total collapse in wind and solar power output, Germany had to scramble to keep its lights on using coal-fired power plants, resurrected to deal with a grid on the brink of collapse and nuclear power imported … Continue reading Germany’s Energiewende ‘Blown’ Away: Mutti Merkel’s Mauling Threatens Doom for Subsidised Wind & Solar
