Banking on the wind for your daily power needs is prone to disappoint. From the moment human beings harnessed thermal energy the path of industrial and modern civilisation was set. No more begging for beneficial breezes to spin that mill. Power could be had as and when we needed it, not when mother nature felt … Continue reading Chaotic Wind Power Output Leaves Power-Starved Texans Praying To Wind Gods
Holding Wind Power Outfits to Account Means Getting Your Own Noise Data
If you’re being driven nuts by thumping, grinding wind turbine noise don’t expect government authorities to help. Local governments, municipalities and so-called Environment Protection Authorities were co-opted by the wind industry, long ago. Although, sometimes, it’s more bungling incompetence than blatant corruption that does the damage. Everyone is entitled to sleep comfortably in their own … Continue reading Holding Wind Power Outfits to Account Means Getting Your Own Noise Data
Cry Babies: Wind Industry Demands Even More Massive Taxpayer Backed Subsidies
The wind ‘industry’ chews through $billions of other people’s money every day, but it’s never enough. Part of the problem is the metric of their mantra. Telling everyone that wind power ‘is cheap’ and getting cheaper all the time doesn’t gel with ‘forever’ subsidies, renewable targets, mandates and guaranteed prices for power which is delivered … Continue reading Cry Babies: Wind Industry Demands Even More Massive Taxpayer Backed Subsidies
Coal-Fired Power Rescues Germany From Failed Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
Germans have worked out that relying on the weather for your power has one major problem: “The Weather”. They’ve even coined a term for gloomy, windless weather - ‘dunkelflaute’ - periods of days or weeks when their more than 30,000 wind turbines and millions of solar panels produce next to nothing or nothing at all. … Continue reading Coal-Fired Power Rescues Germany From Failed Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
Don’t Follow the Leader: Learning From Europe’s Renewable Energy Disaster
Europe’s wind and solar ‘transition’ is like watching a train wreck on constant repeat. Germany led the charge and is suffering the inevitable and entirely predictable consequences, with crushing power prices and routine power rationing. Some of Germany’s neighbours had the wit and temerity to not play follow the leader, or were in a position … Continue reading Don’t Follow the Leader: Learning From Europe’s Renewable Energy Disaster
Total Calamity: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ On Collision Course With Bitter Reality
If what has been done to energy policy was the work of outside forces, it’d be called an ‘act of war’. Sadly, it’s all from the home team and better described as ‘outright treason.’ Australia is, without doubt, the most over governed country on earth, with more mouthpieces and slackers per head of population than … Continue reading Total Calamity: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ On Collision Course With Bitter Reality
Hard Lessons From Britain’s ‘Green’ Energy Disaster Freely Available For All
The fool learns from his own experience, the wise tend to learn from the experience of others. In that respect, Britain provides the perfect opportunity for students of energy policy to avoid their very own self-inflicted wind and solar calamity. Britain went all in with its grand offshore wind experiment - accordingly, power prices rocketed … Continue reading Hard Lessons From Britain’s ‘Green’ Energy Disaster Freely Available For All
Power Demand Management Result of Power Supply Mismanagement
The twisted logic of the wind and solar ‘transition’ means the only way of preventing blackouts is to force users to stop using electricity. Australia’s Federal government is paying energy-hungry businesses (using taxpayer’s money, obviously) to stop producing whatever it is that they produce so they do not use electricity. Because that’s the only way … Continue reading Power Demand Management Result of Power Supply Mismanagement
200 Million Tonnes of Toxic Solar Panels Destined For Landfills Near You
So-called 'green' energy is struggling with a monumental image problem: the toxic waste being dumped in landfills around the world. Millions of solar panels have already reached their use-by dates; they can’t be recycled, which means they’re destined for the local dump - in mind-boggling quantities. Then there's the threat to health that concentrated dumping … Continue reading 200 Million Tonnes of Toxic Solar Panels Destined For Landfills Near You
Fraction Too Much Fiction: Scorching The “Wind & Solar Are Cheap” Myth
‘Wind and solar power are cheap and reliable’, ‘war is peace’, ‘freedom is slavery’ or so the Ministry of Truth would have you believe. Perverting the meaning of language is all in a day’s work for the rent-seeking crowd that sit behind wind and solar outfits - ably assisted by a crowd of deranged zealots … Continue reading Fraction Too Much Fiction: Scorching The “Wind & Solar Are Cheap” Myth
