It pays not to get between a fisherman and their livelihood, as the offshore wind industry is learning fast. Along America’s Atlantic coast, fishermen of all shapes and sizes have turned on the offshore wind industry with an industrial scale fury. Right alongside them are those with a passionate concern for whales, porpoises and dolphins. … Continue reading Fishermen Fight Back: Giant Offshore Wind Turbines Threatening Lobsters, Whales & More
Golden Pass: Wind Industry Licenced To Kill America’s Rare & Endangered Eagles
The wind industry has been killing thousands of rare and endangered eagles for the best part of 20 years. In the USA, it’s literally licenced to do so - with euphemistically tagged ‘take permits’. Those permits cover the senseless destruction of Bald and Golden Eagles. Bear in mind that, because wind power can’t be delivered … Continue reading Golden Pass: Wind Industry Licenced To Kill America’s Rare & Endangered Eagles
Put Up or Shut Up: Time For Promoters To Prove Wind & Solar Really Are ‘Cheap & Reliable’
There’s really only one problem with the claim that wind and solar are cheap and reliable, and that would be the evidence. Every country or state that’s committed to wind and solar in any serious way is facing serious power price punishment. Ask a Californian, German, or South Australian and they’ll soon fill you in. … Continue reading Put Up or Shut Up: Time For Promoters To Prove Wind & Solar Really Are ‘Cheap & Reliable’
From Bad to Worse: Wind Industry’s Mounting Woes Down to Naturally Woeful Performance
The wind industry’s eventual implosion is inevitable and unavoidable, just like death and taxes. Start with the fact that these things can never deliver power as and when it’s needed, and you’ll begin to understand that the industry’s woeful performance sits at the heart of its current crop of mounting woes. Eventually all the loose … Continue reading From Bad to Worse: Wind Industry’s Mounting Woes Down to Naturally Woeful Performance
Britain’s Wind Industry Set to Receive Even More Taxpayer’s Money For Producing Nothing At All
So-called wind power ‘constraint payments’ are more like a kidnapper’s ransom, than a genuine commercial transaction. There aren’t many exchanges that involve a producer claiming a fee for producing absolutely nothing, at all. But when your product is only available in random, chaotic spurts (or not at all), apparently the rules change. Up to December … Continue reading Britain’s Wind Industry Set to Receive Even More Taxpayer’s Money For Producing Nothing At All
Snow Job: Busting The Myth That Solar Panels Plus Battery Storage Can Power the World
The claim that solar panels plus a few mega-batteries can power the entire world represents one of the ‘green’ energy cult’s sillier moments. And there are plenty to choose from, to be sure. Powering a domestic house with solar panels and batteries is possible, but costly. Especially if the batteries are lithium-ion numbers, the kind … Continue reading Snow Job: Busting The Myth That Solar Panels Plus Battery Storage Can Power the World
Government Grants Wind Industry Licence to Kill Critically Endangered North Atlantic Right Whale
The collapse in Atlantic Right Whale numbers runs in parallel with the increase in the number of offshore wind turbines planted into their (once) natural environment: numbers declined from 480 to 340 whales between 2010 and 2022. But, rather than putting a halt to the imminent and complete destruction of a charismatic seaborne mammal, the … Continue reading Government Grants Wind Industry Licence to Kill Critically Endangered North Atlantic Right Whale
Too Cool For School: Frozen Wind Turbines Being ‘Warmed’ Up Using Diesel Powered Generators
Wind power is a fickle critter: wind too slow (no power); wind too fast (no power); wind turbine frozen solid (again, no power). The habit of freezing up during cold spells is just another reason why wind power will never amount to a meaningful power source, not now, not ever. Sure, there are ‘solutions’ when … Continue reading Too Cool For School: Frozen Wind Turbines Being ‘Warmed’ Up Using Diesel Powered Generators
Ugly Truth: Wind & Solar Delivering Environmental Destruction On Grand Global Scale
It's getting harder to ignore the thousands of wind turbine blades and millions of solar panels piling up in landfills, leaving an already mountainous and growing toxic waste legacy for future generations to deal with. In 2023, anyone still touting the putative benefits of wind and solar is either suffering from a form of blissful … Continue reading Ugly Truth: Wind & Solar Delivering Environmental Destruction On Grand Global Scale
USA Leads Charge On Small Modular Reactors With NuScale Design Ready For Construction
As the energy source of the future, safe, reliable and affordable nuclear power hardly needs an introduction. Power-starved Germans have re-embraced it; the French have been powered by it for nearly 60 years. Altogether, there are 30 countries where you’ll find nearly 450 nuclear reactors currently operating – as well as the Germans and French … Continue reading USA Leads Charge On Small Modular Reactors With NuScale Design Ready For Construction
