That Australia’s Eastern Grid is on the brink of collapse with a complete ‘system black’ on the cards comes as no surprise. The $7 billion in annual RET subsidies pocketed by wind and solar generators were designed to allow them to underbid Australia’s reliable and affordable coal-fired generators, destroying their profitability and, ultimately, driving them … Continue reading Blackout Nation: Australians Latest Victims of Subsidised Wind & Solar Chaos
Obsession With Intermittent Wind & Solar Spells R.I.P. For Reliable Power Supplies
Reliance on weather-dependent wind and sunshine-dependent solar means the end for reliable and affordable power supplies. Australia’s wind and solar obsession is beginning to bite, with power prices soaring out of control and power rationing the new normal. With a new band of hard-green-left lunatics in charge, things will only get worse. In America, things … Continue reading Obsession With Intermittent Wind & Solar Spells R.I.P. For Reliable Power Supplies
Biden’s Big Fat Lie: Wind & Solar Doesn’t Save Money – It’s 4-6 Times MORE Expensive
Those countries out to rely on wind and solar inevitably suffer rocketing power prices and power rationing. Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy calamity has seen power prices double in a matter of months; the wholesale power market is in chaos, caused by rapid and total collapses in wind and solar output; and major energy users are … Continue reading Biden’s Big Fat Lie: Wind & Solar Doesn’t Save Money – It’s 4-6 Times MORE Expensive
Mission Impossible: Net-Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions Targets Amount to Economic Suicide
Costly and chaotic wind and solar are central to so-called ‘net-zero CO2 emissions targets’. The renewables driven energy calamity playing out in Europe, California, Texas, and now Australia can only worsen under the yoke of further efforts to reduce carbon dioxide gas in the electricity generation sector with much more of the same. As the … Continue reading Mission Impossible: Net-Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions Targets Amount to Economic Suicide
Panic Stations: Daily Wind & Solar Shortfalls Threaten Australia’s Entire Electricity Grid
Subsidised and intermittent wind and solar infiltrate and destroy power grids like an aggressive cancer. But, unlike cancer, the cause of Australia’s power pricing and supply debacle is precisely known, and was as perfectly predictable, as it was perfectly avoidable. The massive subsidies to wind and solar were deliberately designed to knock reliable and affordable … Continue reading Panic Stations: Daily Wind & Solar Shortfalls Threaten Australia’s Entire Electricity Grid
Wind Power: The Complete Joke That Just Isn’t Funny Anymore
If it were only intended as a joke, wind power would be hilarious. However, the power pricing and supply calamity that follows any attempt to rely on sunshine and breezes tend to sober things up. Random 3,000 to 4,000 MW wind power output collapses are at the heart of Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy debacle. The … Continue reading Wind Power: The Complete Joke That Just Isn’t Funny Anymore
Senseless Seagull Slaughter: Offshore Wind Industry Wiping Out Britain’s Seabirds
Wherever the wind industry plies it subsidy-soaked trade, there’s a wave of avian carnage, and offshore is no exception. While Greta & Co fret about global incineration and mass extinctions, the wind industry is doing a very fine job of extinguishing millions of birds and bats, every year. Indeed, entire species are under threat, including … Continue reading Senseless Seagull Slaughter: Offshore Wind Industry Wiping Out Britain’s Seabirds
China’s Transition From Agrarian Poverty Fuelled By Mountains of Coal
China’s rise is built on the same black stuff that dragged Europe out of the dark ages: mountains of coal. While the ever inscrutable regime in China outwardly pays lip service to climate warriors railing against carbon dioxide gas, with a wink and a nod to its own wind and solar schemes, China is building … Continue reading China’s Transition From Agrarian Poverty Fuelled By Mountains of Coal
Energy Embrace: Nuclear Power’s Inherent Reliability Key To Permanent Energy Security
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has focused minds on energy policy like nothing before. Europe’s self-defeating reliance on Russian oil and gas has exposed the so-called wind and solar ‘transition’ as a delusional farce. Adding chaotically intermittent wind and solar to a grid, while driving reliable and affordable coal-fired plants to the wall, inevitably requires oil … Continue reading Energy Embrace: Nuclear Power’s Inherent Reliability Key To Permanent Energy Security
Impossible Dream: Wind Power Does Nothing To Meet Net-Zero CO2 Emissions Targets
An obsession with carbon dioxide gas is responsible for an obsession with costly and unreliable wind and solar. There is no hope of shaking the former among politicos and the MSM - that carbon dioxide gas is ‘pollution’ and the cause of all ills is mantra #1 of the climate cult’s catechism. The latter, however, … Continue reading Impossible Dream: Wind Power Does Nothing To Meet Net-Zero CO2 Emissions Targets
