Australia’s suicidal renewable energy policies have driven power prices through the roof and are driving energy hungry businesses and whole industries to the wall. Those with their hands on the tiller, keep telling us that this is all part of an ‘inevitable transition’ to a world that runs entirely on nature’s wonder fuels: the sun … Continue reading Australia’s Renewables Debacle Killing Business, Jobs & Whole Energy Hungry Industries

Wrong Bet: Unreliable, Intermittent, Subsidised Wind & Solar Odds-on Losers
It’s said that you can’t keep a good man down and, in that respect, Ian Plimer is simply irrepressible. His latest book, The Climate Delusion and The Great Electricity Rip-off is jumping off the shelves.

Subsidised Wind & Solar: Guaranteed Path to Rocketing Prices & Blackouts
Australia’s diabolically destructive renewable energy policies have led to rocketing power prices and a grid on the brink of collapse. Australian power consumers currently connected to the Eastern Grid (that connects Queensland, New South Wales, ACT, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania) have no idea just how close they are to watching their first total ‘system … Continue reading Subsidised Wind & Solar: Guaranteed Path to Rocketing Prices & Blackouts
Renewable Chaos Shock Treatment: Australia’s Politicians Panic at Threat of Looming Blackouts
Australia’s self-inflicted energy ‘crisis’ is the consequence of considered and deliberate action that promoted weather dependent wind power and time-dependent solar power at the expense of the secure, reliable and affordable stuff. As the political panic spreads, it’s quite apparent, that those who created the disaster have almost no idea how resolve it. The PM, … Continue reading Renewable Chaos Shock Treatment: Australia’s Politicians Panic at Threat of Looming Blackouts
Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Fiasco: Product of Political Treachery

Indeed, while it has some promise of restoring stability to Australia’s electricity grid (being pushed to the brink of collapse by a ludicrous attempt to run … Continue reading Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Fiasco: Product of Political Treachery
PM’s Reliable Power Play Spells Disaster for Unreliable & Intermittent Wind Power
Politics is a cruel caper, at the best of times. And, in Australia, power politics is merciless. A decade and-a-half of government intervention in the power market has left Australia with the highest power prices in the world and a grid on the brink of collapse. The disaster is largely down to distortions caused by … Continue reading PM’s Reliable Power Play Spells Disaster for Unreliable & Intermittent Wind Power
Experts Hope Summer Blackouts Bring Sanity to Australia’s Renewable Energy Debacle
If Australia’s energy policy debate was a theatre production, it would be labelled ‘high farce’. Throwing $60 billion to the sun and the wind, destroying a grid which was renowned for not only its expanse, but its reliability and sending power prices from the very bottom of the league table, all the way to … Continue reading Experts Hope Summer Blackouts Bring Sanity to Australia’s Renewable Energy Debacle
