A decade from now we’ll be talking about the transition to wind and solar that never happened. Right now, though, rent seekers and their enabling politicos are making claims, fast and furious about reaching net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets using nothing but sunshine and breezes. No country has ever run itself entirely on wind … Continue reading Net Zero Experiment Built on Intermittent Wind & Solar – Doomed to Failure
Blaze of Fury: Local Outrage Forces Government Backflip on Offshore Wind Turbine Plans
Whatever ‘social licence’ the wind industry had evaporated years ago; wrecked communities, wrecked environments and wrecked economies will do it every time. Sure enough, the usual ‘not in my back yard’ protester often takes the lead in opposition to another aggregation of these monstrosities. However, the arguments these days are broader and more to the … Continue reading Blaze of Fury: Local Outrage Forces Government Backflip on Offshore Wind Turbine Plans
Part-Time Power: US Industry Told to Stop Work After Sunset & During Calm Weather
Wind and sunshine might be ‘free’, but good luck getting wind or solar power when the wind stops blowing and the sun sets, at any price. Wind and solar rent seekers are eager to tell us how cheap wind and solar are compared to coal, nuclear and gas. Attempting to compare weather-dependent wind and sunshine … Continue reading Part-Time Power: US Industry Told to Stop Work After Sunset & During Calm Weather
Wind Industry’s Rotten Tale: A Story of Bribes and Underhand Dealings
Crony capitalism is mostly done undercover; only rarely does its insidious work bubble to be the surface. The wind industry isn’t the only business where cash for favours is the order of the day. But the wind industry is alone in its moralising, ‘shut up, we’re saving the world’ mantra. The narrative upon which it … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Rotten Tale: A Story of Bribes and Underhand Dealings
Energy Hungry World Drives Obvious Demand for Cheap, Reliable Coal-Fired Power
Germany and Australia share delusional obsessions with wind and solar power; but they also share a desperate demand for reliable coal-fired power. Hidden from sight, both Germany and Australia have recognised (albeit a little too late) that the only way of delivering 24 x 365 power, whatever the weather at prices everyone can afford is … Continue reading Energy Hungry World Drives Obvious Demand for Cheap, Reliable Coal-Fired Power
Hard Time: Brits Face Prison For Using Power When the Wind’s Not Blowing
The wind and solar ‘transition’ was always going to end in a dystopian nightmare, but Brits are already living it. Power is routinely rationed whenever the wind drops and, perversely, households are encouraged to use electricity when wind speeds pick up. The simple truth is that Britain has destroyed its reliable and affordable power supply, … Continue reading Hard Time: Brits Face Prison For Using Power When the Wind’s Not Blowing
Want Time Freezing or Boiling In The Dark: Keep Backing Wind & Solar
Pinning your power needs to intermittent wind and solar power comes with a grab bag of consequences. Not least, blackouts whenever surging demand coincides with calm weather and/or sunset. Whether it’s wind and solar-obsessed South Australia or Germany, the results are inevitable. The cancer that began in South Australia - the only state in Australia … Continue reading Want Time Freezing or Boiling In The Dark: Keep Backing Wind & Solar
Offshore Freefall: Wind Industry Faces Economic Reality (And Doesn’t Like It)
Built on myth and lies and running on subsidies, the wind industry was never going to last. Set a false business narrative and, eventually, economic reality comes sweeping in like a Panzer division on steroids. Cheery propaganda does not always result in profits. Start with the story about wind power being the cheapest of all, … Continue reading Offshore Freefall: Wind Industry Faces Economic Reality (And Doesn’t Like It)
Clean, Safe & Reliable Nuclear Power the Environment’s Best Friend
Wind and solar have lost their ‘social licence’; the masses no longer believe the ‘clean and green’ propaganda. Wrecked communities, wrecked environments and wrecked economies are too difficult to hide or spin away. Once people get a grip on the great wind and solar scam, their conversion is irreversible. The original trope had it that … Continue reading Clean, Safe & Reliable Nuclear Power the Environment’s Best Friend
Subsidised Wind & Solar Debacle Delivers Massive Power Price Shock
Every country that’s tapped into the grand wind and solar transition has left power consumers suffering from Post Transition Stress Disorder - where households and businesses are being pounded with power prices at unprecedented rates. Australia, is no exception. At the minute Australians are being bombarded by media attempts to convince a wholly nonracist Australian … Continue reading Subsidised Wind & Solar Debacle Delivers Massive Power Price Shock
