Markets don’t lie. The growth in demand for uranium is driven by the world’s growing demand for nuclear power. Australia holds the world’s largest uranium reserves and, despite its shifting policy of limiting the number of mines and states that have banned them, is the world’s third-largest uranium exporter. Happy to export it, but too dim to use it … Continue reading Rising Australian Uranium Exports Proves Growing Demand For Nuclear Power
Wind & Solar Cult Can’t Mount Convincing Case Against Nuclear Power Generation
When Finland powered up its latest nuclear power plant in April wholesale power prices dropped 75%, almost overnight. The Olkiluoto 3 plant (above) is fully operational, generating 1,600 MW of electricity on demand (irrespective of the weather), and delivering 15% of the country’s power needs. Nuclear now provides around half of the country’s total electricity … Continue reading Wind & Solar Cult Can’t Mount Convincing Case Against Nuclear Power Generation
Destination Disaster: Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Guarantees Mass Blackouts & Crippling Prices
Backing ideology over sound engineering was never the smartest ploy. Now the ideologues are in a flat panic as the public begins to realise that they’ve been lied to, all along. The ‘renewables are cheap’ story doesn’t seem to cut it anymore, with Australian households and businesses set for 25-30% increases in their power bills … Continue reading Destination Disaster: Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Guarantees Mass Blackouts & Crippling Prices
Climate Changing: Germany’s 30,000 Wind Turbines Causing Local Rainfall Droughts
Wind turbines were meant to improve the weather, now it seems these things are making it worse. Bear in mind the weather worriers are fretting about changes of a degree or two (apparently an increase of just 1.5°C means instant disaster and pumping it up by 2°C means an irreversible catastrophe). There is already plenty … Continue reading Climate Changing: Germany’s 30,000 Wind Turbines Causing Local Rainfall Droughts
Destined For Failure: Wind & Solar Transition Depends on (Impossible) Battery Storage Miracle
As 2023 slips by, it’s getting harder for wind and solar ‘industries’ to claim any other purpose than raking in massive subsidies. Europe’s wind and solar rollout is at a complete standstill; wind turbine manufacturers are laying off staff in droves and losing hundreds of millions of euros. The French are backing a massive increase … Continue reading Destined For Failure: Wind & Solar Transition Depends on (Impossible) Battery Storage Miracle
Blood Panels: Chinese Solar Industry Built On Industrial Scale Slavery
The CCP’s use of Uyghur and Kazakh slaves allows China to manufacture the world’s cheapest solar panels and the first world to feel smug about using them to purportedly 'save the Planet'. Aalthough, evidently, these noble Western saviours aren't so concerned with those places where daily life is spent under lock and key and every … Continue reading Blood Panels: Chinese Solar Industry Built On Industrial Scale Slavery
Safe & Reliable Nuclear Power Provides Cleanest, Greenest Energy Future
Wind and solar generation spreads like cancer. Dilute and diffuse, intermittent and unreliable the wind and solar generators’ demand for land is insatiable. And because every single MW of wind or solar generation capacity has to be backed up by another MW of dispatchable power generation (coal, gas, diesel or hydro) to accommodate sunset and … Continue reading Safe & Reliable Nuclear Power Provides Cleanest, Greenest Energy Future
Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Turning First World Economies Into First Order Disasters
Make electricity unreliable and unaffordable and you’ll soon turn your economy to ashes. Australia is on the brink of a major recession, and energy costs are front and centre. Power prices will jump by 25 to 30% next month following the closure of yet another perfectly operable 2,000MW coal-fired power plant. Since the Federal Government’s … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Turning First World Economies Into First Order Disasters
Punishment Guaranteed: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Delivers Power Price Shock
The clowns have taken over the circus and are firmly in charge of energy policy, which in its design and implementation makes a three-ringed circus look like a Benedictine Monastery. It's said you shouldn't put down to conspiracy what can be chalked up to incompetence. Well, with Australian power prices rising at double-digit rates every … Continue reading Punishment Guaranteed: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Delivers Power Price Shock
Real Contenders: Coal & Gas-Fired Power Still Dominate America’s Electricity Grid
The same wind and solar-obsessed ideology that wrecked Germany’s power supply is on clear display in the USA. If massive and seemingly endless subsidies to wind and solar aren’t enough to destroy reliable and affordable power supplies we’ve enjoyed for generations o their own, then the wind and sun cult amp it up with arbitrary … Continue reading Real Contenders: Coal & Gas-Fired Power Still Dominate America’s Electricity Grid
