Banishing our good friends, logic and reason is essential to the notion of an ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future. Ignorance of simple maths, the laws of physics, economics and meteorology helps, too. Which explains why the naïve and gullible are merrily swallowing the story that we’re just a few mega-batteries … Continue reading Big Battery Bunkum: Why Grid-Scale Storage of Renewable Energy Will Never Work

Massive & Endless Subsidies Destroy Claim That Wind & Solar Cheapest Of All
In the ‘pigs might fly category’ sits the claim that intermittent wind and solar are the cheapest power sources, amongst all contenders. Were there even a shred of truth to that story, then renewable energy rent seekers wouldn’t be hounding policymakers at every turn to ensure that the massive subsidies they currently enjoy be guaranteed … Continue reading Massive & Endless Subsidies Destroy Claim That Wind & Solar Cheapest Of All
Climate Cult Would Take Californians Back to The Dark Ages With All Wind & Solar Future
If this Summer’s power rationing and rolling blackouts weren’t enough, California’s wind and solar worshippers are determined to deliver much more of the same. One of their hopes is to ban all household gas appliances, forcing families to use electric powered kit, instead. The premise is that all the power needed will come courtesy of … Continue reading Climate Cult Would Take Californians Back to The Dark Ages With All Wind & Solar Future
Impossible Dream: Why Promise Of All Wind & Sun Powered Future Is Complete Nonsense
The dream of an all wind and sun powered future is more like a recurring nightmare: chaotically intermittent, critically dependent upon massive and endless subsidies and environmentally destructive, the idea that millions of giant industrial wind turbines and seas of solar panels will somehow benefit the planet beggars belief. In two detailed and well-crafted videos … Continue reading Impossible Dream: Why Promise Of All Wind & Sun Powered Future Is Complete Nonsense
Why Wind & Solar Are Pointless: ‘Renewables Will Power Us’ Myth, Smashed Again
It takes a special brand of delusion to believe that we’re a heartbeat away from an all wind and sun powered future. But that’s the premise advanced by wind and sun worshippers and the rent seekers that profit from the greatest subsidy scam in human history. Putting aside their chaotic intermittency, the staggering amount … Continue reading Why Wind & Solar Are Pointless: ‘Renewables Will Power Us’ Myth, Smashed Again
Pipe Dreams: Quest for All Wind & Solar Powered World Like Searching For Unobtanium
It takes a special brand of delusion to believe that we’ll soon all be powered by nothing but sunshine and breezes. Cynics might suggest that there’s a pretty strong correlation between wishful thinking and endless subsidies to wind and solar. But, apart from rent seeking crony capitalists, there’s still a fair proportion out there who … Continue reading Pipe Dreams: Quest for All Wind & Solar Powered World Like Searching For Unobtanium
Keep It Simple Stupid: Why No Country Will Ever Be Powered By Wind & Solar Power Alone
Australia’s blackout capital, South Australia is what happens when hubris and ideology trumps sound engineering. After a run of mass blackouts, load shedding and a complete statewide blackout in September 2016, South Australia (Australia’s wind and solar capital) was forced to spend a fortune on diesel powered jet engines, open cycle gas turbines and, later, … Continue reading Keep It Simple Stupid: Why No Country Will Ever Be Powered By Wind & Solar Power Alone
Renewable Energy Rip-Off: Paying Premium Prices For Wind Power & Getting Fossil-Fuelled Power In Return
Subsidised wind and solar is a monumental rip-off from start to finish - ‘wholesale fraud’ just about covers it, whenever power companies charge whopping premiums for what they claim is ‘green’ energy, when in fact the customer is getting electrons generated by coal, gas or nuclear power plants. Whatever the marketing pitch, there are going … Continue reading Renewable Energy Rip-Off: Paying Premium Prices For Wind Power & Getting Fossil-Fuelled Power In Return
Hopeless Joke: Australia’s Wind Industry Keeps On Failing to Deliver the Goods
Over the last few months, the output from Australia’s wind power fleet has not only been erratic, it’s been utterly pathetic. Any other enterprise that delivered its goods on such a haphazard, sporadic and chaotic basis would be laughed out of town. But not the wind industry. No, instead, its inherent unreliability is being rewarded … Continue reading Hopeless Joke: Australia’s Wind Industry Keeps On Failing to Deliver the Goods
Truly Creative Marketing: Made With 100% Renewables Claims = 100% Pure Bunkum
Any business claiming its products are made with 100% wind and/or solar power is engaged in truly ‘creative marketing’, aka old-fashioned ‘fraud’. For a start, the sun sets like clockwork and calm weather sets in, every other day. Then there’s the fact that - for every MW of wind or solar - there is a … Continue reading Truly Creative Marketing: Made With 100% Renewables Claims = 100% Pure Bunkum
