Sunset kills solar output the same way calm weather renders wind turbines utterly useless. Around the world $trillions have been squandered on occasional power generation which is always and everywhere dependent on sunshine and/or the weather. In the beginning, there was a perfectly functional power supply with reliable generators connected by a systematically designed grid … Continue reading Occasional Wind & Solar Generation Guarantee Staggering Backup Costs
Uncontrollable Surge: Daytime Solar Output Swamps Grid & Wrecks Power Market
The chaos that’s wrecking our power supplies is what happens when engineers are replaced by ideologues. Long on cultish mantras about the ‘inevitable transition’ and the wonders of ‘free wind and solar energy’, but short on maths, physics and economics, the clowns in charge of our power supplies would have been charged with treason, not … Continue reading Uncontrollable Surge: Daytime Solar Output Swamps Grid & Wrecks Power Market
Purely Ideological: No Hope of Ever Satisfying Net-Zero CO2 Targets With Wind & Solar
The wind and solar transition is just like every other grand 5-year-plan dreamt up by socialists, except the fact that crony capitalists are loving every minute of it. Ambitious (and ludicrous) wind and solar generation targets have given way to even more ambitious (and completely ludicrous) net-zero carbon oxide gas targets. Neither have a hope … Continue reading Purely Ideological: No Hope of Ever Satisfying Net-Zero CO2 Targets With Wind & Solar
Simply Staggering: Power Users Bear The True Cost of Subsidised Wind and Solar
Every state or country that ramps up wind and solar capacity ends up with rocketing power prices and an unreliable grid - no exceptions. Press members of the wind and sun cult for an example of the alternative outcome and they’ll quickly deflect and change the subject, keep pressing and then you’ll get ranting about … Continue reading Simply Staggering: Power Users Bear The True Cost of Subsidised Wind and Solar
Aboriginal Communities Unite to Stop These Things Wrecking Precious Animal Habitat
The wind industry’s planet saving methods include trashing pristine tropical rainforest and smashing the critters that once peacefully inhabited those forests, including Australia’s iconic koala. In our recent post - Licenced Exterminators: Government Greenlights Wind Industry’s Mass Koala Kill - we noted the instructions given by a wind farm operator to construction workers in dealing … Continue reading Aboriginal Communities Unite to Stop These Things Wrecking Precious Animal Habitat
Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices
As night follows day, adding more wind and solar capacity inevitably results in rocketing power prices. The hard numbers say it all. China enjoys the world’s lowest power prices, thanks to cheap, abundant and reliable coal-fired power. Adding to their advantage, China is building dozens of new coal-fired and nuclear powered plants. It’s almost as … Continue reading Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices
Offshore Wind Industry Targets Australian Coastline For Wholesale Whale Slaughter
The ultra-high-decibel sonar emitted by wind industry survey vessels during wind farm construction deafens marine mammals, so does piledriving: the repetitive, percussive pounding of the columns that support the turbines (see above); the piles are 8m in diameter and over 100m long – 30-60m of which gets punched into the seabed. The offshore wind industry … Continue reading Offshore Wind Industry Targets Australian Coastline For Wholesale Whale Slaughter
Zombie Apocalypse: Wind Industry Faces Total Collapse With More Projects Scrapped
The wind industry is looking a lot like a zombie apocalypse; evidently dead on its feet, but refusing to accept its mortality and die with dignity. The offshore wind industry in the US looks like a bloodbath, with dozens of major projects scrapped outright. Investors have pulled the plug, never to return. In Australia dozens … Continue reading Zombie Apocalypse: Wind Industry Faces Total Collapse With More Projects Scrapped
Turn Up The Base(Load): Nuclear Plants Keep Delivering Power All Day, Every Day
The history of civilisation is a story based on harnessing electricity - its future will be one based on building baseload nuclear power. Always on, whatever the weather, no need for batteries, no need for back up - clean, safe, reliable - nuclear power ticks all the boxes. An energy hungry world is chewing up … Continue reading Turn Up The Base(Load): Nuclear Plants Keep Delivering Power All Day, Every Day
Grand Solar Power Rush Ends With Panels Being Used As Garden Fencing
A decade from now, the wind and solar transition will resemble Alice’s trip down the rabbit hole - a place inhabited by lunatics and where nothing makes sense. Massive and seemingly endless subsidies have perverted the ordinary signals that free and open markets deliver. In Europe, the grand wind and solar rush has come to … Continue reading Grand Solar Power Rush Ends With Panels Being Used As Garden Fencing
