Squandering $billions on chaotically intermittent wind and solar is the cornerstone of the policy said to deliver the grand energy transition. Not that we have any say in the matter, but, if given the choice of paying rent-seekers to carpet the country in even more solar panels and wind turbines or joining the political malefactors … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Gambling With Other Peoples’ Money And Always Losing
Practical Reality: Off-Road Campers Grapple With Solar Power’s Natural Limits
https://youtu.be/HQthAzrrzkg?si=QRqmGfcAuf0mIsPe The Sun cult reckon solar (with a few $trillion worth of lithium-ion batteries) is already capable of powering the planet. Reality begs to differ. The performance claims made by solar panel sales reps are always overhyped. Actual output never matches the numbers laid out in glossy brochures or on slick websites. A lot of … Continue reading Practical Reality: Off-Road Campers Grapple With Solar Power’s Natural Limits
America Tells Australia To Grow Up & Get With The Nuclear Power Program
Australia’s ban on nuclear power is not just embarrassing, it’s positively idiotic. A fact not lost on our American cousins, who are demanding that we grow up and get with the nuclear power program. And they are perfectly qualified to criticize. The US has 92 reactors operating, with a combined capacity of 94,718 MW – … Continue reading America Tells Australia To Grow Up & Get With The Nuclear Power Program
Wind & Solar Generators Couldn’t Care Less When You’re Freezing In The Dark
Solar panels smothered with snow and ice produce nothing; wind turbines frozen solid during breathless, frigid weather produce even less (they actually consume power from the grid to run heating systems meant to prevent their internal workings suffering permanent damage). So, if you’re sitting freezing in the dark, don’t expect wind and solar power generators … Continue reading Wind & Solar Generators Couldn’t Care Less When You’re Freezing In The Dark
Wind & Solar Fail to Dent World’s Record Demand For Coal
The wind and sun cult reckon ‘coal is dead’. The truth is the energy-rich black stuff hasn’t suffered so much as a flesh wound. World energy markets keep defying long-repeated predictions that coal’s days are over. Coal remains critical because it does something that sunshine and breezes can never do; fed into coal-fired power plants … Continue reading Wind & Solar Fail to Dent World’s Record Demand For Coal
Shipwrecked: America’s Offshore Wind Industry Being Crushed By Rising Construction Costs
2023 was the year when the offshore wind industry’s grand implosion began. Major investors bailed out as the insane cost of attempting to (occasionally) generate electricity with no commercial value in hostile marine environments began to bite. Dozens of projects have been scrapped and others are now highly doubtful. And for those wind power outfits … Continue reading Shipwrecked: America’s Offshore Wind Industry Being Crushed By Rising Construction Costs
Energy Illiterate Halfwits Responsible For Subsidised Wind & Solar Death Spiral
To call it ‘energy policy’ is to flatter it. Attempting to run first world economies on part-time power is not just delusional, it is criminal. Unfortunately, those responsible for the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time can only be brought to justice at the ballot box. In Australia, a group of energy illiterate … Continue reading Energy Illiterate Halfwits Responsible For Subsidised Wind & Solar Death Spiral
Locals Ecstatic: French Court Orders Demolition of Noisy, Eagle Killing Wind Turbines
A French Court has ordered the wipeout of a fleet of wind turbines that have been wiping out golden eagles and which long ago wiped out the ability of locals to sleep peacefully in their own homes. The turbines in question have been slaughtering birds, including golden eagles, for years incensing conservation groups, as well … Continue reading Locals Ecstatic: French Court Orders Demolition of Noisy, Eagle Killing Wind Turbines
Tap Into Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar: Get Ready For Punishing Power Bills
Being pounded with 20% increases in power bills, year after year, is all part of the grand wind and solar transition. Every single country that’s tapped into subsidised wind and solar has seen retail power prices rocket - no exceptions. It’s one case where whatever goes up, never comes down. The promise of cheap electricity … Continue reading Tap Into Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar: Get Ready For Punishing Power Bills
Killer App: Nuclear Moves Destroy Business Case For Subsidised Wind & Solar
The business case for wind and solar rests entirely on subsidies, which rest entirely on political sentiment. With punishing power bills causing increasing anger amongst the proles’, it’s getting harder for politicos to justify their delusional renewable energy/net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets. That shift in the political mood feeds directly into the dreaded ‘sovereign … Continue reading Killer App: Nuclear Moves Destroy Business Case For Subsidised Wind & Solar
