The occasional generators - wind and solar deliver trivial amounts of electricity and take the best part of a continent to do it. Where land use matters, and it almost always matters, their lack of energy density is yet another reason why wind and solar will never amount to meaningful power generation sources; not now, … Continue reading Lack of Concentration: Wind & Solar Use Vast Tracts of Land to Deliver Occasional Power
Nordic Nuclear Revival: Sweden to Build 10 Large Capacity Plants
Nordics are renowned for their practical, common sense, which is why the likes of Sweden and Finland are backing nuclear power like their nations depend on it. When Finland fired up its 1,600MW Olkiluoto 3 nuclear plant in April this year, power users were bound to notice that average spot electricity prices dropped from €245.98 per … Continue reading Nordic Nuclear Revival: Sweden to Build 10 Large Capacity Plants
Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Leaves Germans Suffering Europe’s Highest Power Prices
German power prices, already the highest in Europe, have gone stratospheric. Once Europe’s industrial powerhouse, Germany is fast headed for economic ruin and social disaster. 20 years back, Germany’s Green/Socialist utopians - utterly detached from reality - dreamt up the ‘Energiewende’. However, the purported ‘transition’ to an all-wind and sun-powered future has turned dystopian nightmare. … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Leaves Germans Suffering Europe’s Highest Power Prices
Fishermen Fight to End to Offshore Wind Industry’s Wholesale Whale Slaughter
The wind industry's mindless slaughter of whales, dolphins, porpoises and seals is completely legit, thanks to government-backed licenses known as the ‘Incidental Harassment Authorization’. The principal cause of the carnage is the seismic geo-surveys conducted before the turbines get speared into the seabed. With their sonar systems duly scrambled by the underwater cacophony, the whales … Continue reading Fishermen Fight to End to Offshore Wind Industry’s Wholesale Whale Slaughter
America’s Offshore Wind Industry Covering Up True Cost of Taxpayer Funded Subsidies
The rent-seekers that profit from the great wind and solar scam are always begging for more: more subsidies, tougher mandates and even greater renewable energy targets. Back in 1983, the American Wind Industry Association claimed that solar and wind would be “competitive and self-supporting on a national level by the end of the decade if … Continue reading America’s Offshore Wind Industry Covering Up True Cost of Taxpayer Funded Subsidies
Fishermen Unite to Prevent Offshore Wind Industry Wrecking Marine Ecosystems
Fishermen, whose livelihoods depend on the sea, have turned on the offshore wind industry with a vengeance. Along America’s Atlantic coast trawlermen and lobster fishers are as one in their hatred of the offshore wind power scam. Not least because of the damage that it is doing to the fishing grounds which they have sought … Continue reading Fishermen Unite to Prevent Offshore Wind Industry Wrecking Marine Ecosystems
Missed Target: No Way Wind & Solar Can Meet (Pointless) Net-Zero CO2 Target
The Soviet 5-year-plan was all about ludicrous ambitions that the Proles duly defied and likewise defied reality. So it is with so-called ‘net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets’. Big talk about pointless objects is easy enough, but, at some stage the punters start asking when those objects might be met. And when they’re rebuffed, they … Continue reading Missed Target: No Way Wind & Solar Can Meet (Pointless) Net-Zero CO2 Target
Resistance Is Futile: Net-Zero CO2 Targets Can Only Be Met With Nuclear Power
The fact that those pushing net-zero emissions targets aren’t talking seriously about nuclear power, says it all. If energy policy is left in the hands of the wind and sun cult - and other weather-obsessed lunatics - it won't be long before we’re all left sitting freezing or boiling in the dark. Those with financial … Continue reading Resistance Is Futile: Net-Zero CO2 Targets Can Only Be Met With Nuclear Power
Not So Bright Spark: Grand Renewable Energy ‘Battery’ Plan Runs Flat
Hubris drives the so-called wind and solar ‘transition’, which now depends upon the myth of giant batteries compensating for the vagaries of the weather and sunset. These mythical batteries come in all shapes and sizes and with enough added hyperbole have grown to include the entire island state of Tasmania. Touted with the rent-seeking classes’ … Continue reading Not So Bright Spark: Grand Renewable Energy ‘Battery’ Plan Runs Flat
Following California’s Renewable Energy Lead Guarantees Rocketing Power Prices & Blackouts
In their sillier moments, the wind and sun cult point to places like California or Germany as prime examples of energy Nirvana. Then come the facts. California and Germany have most certainly led the charge in backing heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar, but they’ve also led the charge on rocketing power prices … Continue reading Following California’s Renewable Energy Lead Guarantees Rocketing Power Prices & Blackouts
