Follow The Money: Wind & Solar Rort Driven By Cynical Self-Interest

In the race of life always back the horse named ‘self-interest’ and to get the bottom of any scam, simply follow the money. In Australia, the Australian Labor Party is running an energy policy so delusional it’s dangerous. Nominally in charge of the Federal government, the ALP is doing everything in its power to wreck … Continue reading Follow The Money: Wind & Solar Rort Driven By Cynical Self-Interest

Terrified Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Drive Crazed Anti-Nuclear Stance

Over the last 20 years, the energy narrative has been owned by those profiting from the grand wind and solar scam. These days, not so much. Now that a raft of countries around the world have embraced nuclear power, crony capitalists have recognised ever-reliable nuclear as a clear and present danger. Because (unlike wind and … Continue reading Terrified Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Drive Crazed Anti-Nuclear Stance

Political Power Shift: More Voters Refuse to Swallow Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Lie

Opening a crushing power bill while sitting freezing (or boiling) in the dark focuses attention on the obvious and only cause: heavily subsidised and hopelessly intermittent wind and solar. Delivered according to the whims of mother nature rather than the demands of human industry, activity and endeavour, wind and solar power were never going to … Continue reading Political Power Shift: More Voters Refuse to Swallow Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Lie

Wind & Solar Transition Guaranteed to Deliver Mass Blackouts This Summer

The ‘transition’ to portable electric generators, flashlights and candles is well on its way. The inevitable consequence of attempting to run on sunshine and breezes is having power only when the sun is up and the wind is blowing, just right. Grid-scale energy storage is a myth, as is waffle about so-called ‘green’ hydrogen. The … Continue reading Wind & Solar Transition Guaranteed to Deliver Mass Blackouts This Summer

Facts Trump Feelings: Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Tale Rapidly Unravels

The only certainties attached to the wind and solar transition are being constantly whacked with crushing power bills and sitting freezing or boiling in the dark, when the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. Whereas Europeans are crab-walking away from their mad rush towards wind and solar - with many tapping into next-generation nuclear power … Continue reading Facts Trump Feelings: Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Tale Rapidly Unravels

Conspiracy of Silence: MSM Runs Protection Racket for Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers

The glaring fault with the mainstream media is not so much what they publish, it’s what they refuse to publish. The truth runs a distant third to woke memes and fashionable mantras. How we found ourselves in a world where power prices are simply unaffordable, and power can only be delivered according the vagaries of … Continue reading Conspiracy of Silence: MSM Runs Protection Racket for Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers

Blaze of Fury: Local Outrage Forces Government Backflip on Offshore Wind Turbine Plans

Whatever ‘social licence’ the wind industry had evaporated years ago; wrecked communities, wrecked environments and wrecked economies will do it every time. Sure enough, the usual ‘not in my back yard’ protester often takes the lead in opposition to another aggregation of these monstrosities. However, the arguments these days are broader and more to the … Continue reading Blaze of Fury: Local Outrage Forces Government Backflip on Offshore Wind Turbine Plans

Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Spells Inevitable Environmental Disaster

Spearing thousands of wind turbines into rural communities and carpeting them with endless seas of solar panels is only just the beginning. To connect those hopelessly intermittent power sources to market requires thousands of (otherwise unnecessary) kilometres of additional transmission lines. All of that environmental destruction could have readily been avoided had Australia simply maintained … Continue reading Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Spells Inevitable Environmental Disaster

Consumers Carry Colossal Cost of Getting Wind & Solar From Nowhere to Somewhere

The grand wind and solar transition comes with a staggering pricetag, not least the $trillions required to connect far-flung wind turbines and solar panels to increasingly distant markets. Building a secondary network of high voltage transmission lines and interconnectors to carry the power occasionally generated by wind turbines and solar panels, spread far and wide, … Continue reading Consumers Carry Colossal Cost of Getting Wind & Solar From Nowhere to Somewhere

Delusional Groupthink Drives Obsession With Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar

As in life, government policy is about trade-offs, which usually means plumping for the good rather than the perfect. However, in the de-industrialising West, energy policy is all about rejecting the good in favour of the unworkable. The notion that weather-dependent wind, and weather and sunshine-dependent solar (with or without pumped hydro or mythical mega-batteries) … Continue reading Delusional Groupthink Drives Obsession With Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar
