Poland is the latest country to join the Europe-wide nuclear power renaissance. While their German neighbours set out to destroy their once reliable and affordable power supply with a maniacal attempt to run on sunshine and breezes, the Poles kept powering on using their abundant coal reserves. The same coal-fired plants routinely provide surplus power … Continue reading Poles Apart: Poland Joins Europe’s Nuclear Power Renaissance
How to Wreck Power Supplies: Add Subidised Wind & Solar
The apparent object of the wind and solar ‘transition’ is to destroy reliable and affordable power supplies. The evidence suggests we are well on our way. Hijacked by ideologues with arts degrees and bankrolled by crony capitalists ready to make a fast buck, at your expense, energy policy is playing out as one almighty nightmare … Continue reading How to Wreck Power Supplies: Add Subidised Wind & Solar
Pro-Nuclear Power Stance Spells Doom For Subsidised Wind & Solar
Ever-reliable nuclear power poses the biggest threat to the wind and solar industries, and they know it. Renewable energy rent-seekers hate nuclear because it works and provides the perfect answer to those fretting about carbon dioxide gas. The wind and solar cult claim that there is no other way to save the planet from the … Continue reading Pro-Nuclear Power Stance Spells Doom For Subsidised Wind & Solar
Without Cheap & Reliable Power Australia’s Mineral Resources Ain’t Worth A Nickel
The wind and solar transition has delivered rocketing power prices and with it the slow-grinding demise of Australia’s mining industry. Worst hit are the nickel miners, who are shutting down their operations and sacking workers, in droves. And the reason is very simple: Australian power prices are positively exorbitant compared with Indonesia. Thanks to cheap … Continue reading Without Cheap & Reliable Power Australia’s Mineral Resources Ain’t Worth A Nickel
Powerless: Wind & Solar Transition Leaves 500,000 Boiling In The Dark
Having trashed the cheapest and most reliable power supply in the world, the Australian (failed) State of Victoria simply can’t keep the lights on. Hundreds of thousands of families were left boiling in the dark last week, and it took days to restore power across the People’s Republic. Melbourne Airport was left without power for … Continue reading Powerless: Wind & Solar Transition Leaves 500,000 Boiling In The Dark
Wind Turbines Require Hundreds of Tonnes of Minerals Mined & Processed Using Fossil Fuels
Ignorance is a solid virtue among the wind and sun cult, who apparently believe that wind turbines self-replicate without the need for any assistance from those evil fossil fuels, coal, oil and gas. Their infantile imagination is better placed in a sci-fi pic with indestructible, self-repairing droids, than in earthly reality. An industrial wind turbine … Continue reading Wind Turbines Require Hundreds of Tonnes of Minerals Mined & Processed Using Fossil Fuels
Safety Watch: Neighbours Learn to Dodge Flying Blades From Exploding Wind Turbines
In the last 20 years, the wind industry hasn't generated much power, but it's managed to clock up more than 230 fatalities, and 350 serious injuries according to the helpful collection of stats compiled by Scotland Against Spin available here: https://scotlandagainstspin.org/turbine-accident-statistics/ Routine self-immolation, total collapse and ‘component liberation’ events are among the leading causes of the (wholly … Continue reading Safety Watch: Neighbours Learn to Dodge Flying Blades From Exploding Wind Turbines
Orsted’s Financial Collapse Spells Armageddon For US Offshore Wind Industry
When the most heavily subsidised industry on earth can’t make it pay, you know the economics must really stink. Denmark’s Ørsted share price plummeted 25% late last year, and after slashing dividends to shareholders was forced to write $billions off the projected value of its US offshore projects, and its share price is still heading south. Exhibiting … Continue reading Orsted’s Financial Collapse Spells Armageddon For US Offshore Wind Industry
Scorched Earth Policy: Wind and Solar Transition Wrecking The Environment & The Economy
Stripped to its core, the wind and solar ‘transition’ is all about trashing the environment and the economy, simultaneously. Incapable of delivering reliable and affordable power as and when we need it, and accordingly driving up the cost of the stuff that can be delivered on demand, power prices inevitably rocket out of control - … Continue reading Scorched Earth Policy: Wind and Solar Transition Wrecking The Environment & The Economy
All Sweat: More Wind & Solar Chaos – State Orders Remote Air-Con Shut Down
When the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in, wind and solar power can’t be bought, at any price. As we approach our inevitable transition, that means that daily power rationing becomes completely inevitable. The perceived logic of supplying consumers with electricity from nothing but wholly weather-dependent wind power and wholly sunshine-dependent solar power lacks … Continue reading All Sweat: More Wind & Solar Chaos – State Orders Remote Air-Con Shut Down
