Australia’s wind and solar capital, South Australia destroyed its last coal-fired power plant and now suffers the world’s highest power prices. Its economy is already a basket case, with much worse to come. However, RE zealots seem to treat SA in the same way that gamblers treat their losses: they never mention them, and … Continue reading Reaping the Whirlwind: Shutting Coal-Fired Power Plants Guarantees Rocketing Power Prices

Hypocrites Playground: Australian Renewable Energy Policy Driven By Virtue Signalling Halfwits
Reading this in Australia? Then you’re doing so, thanks to coal. You might be doing so thanks to nuclear power, if only the dimwits that profess to run this country hadn’t banned it. On any given day, between 70 and 80% of what flows through Australia’s Eastern Grid comes from coal-fired power plants. Of course, … Continue reading Hypocrites Playground: Australian Renewable Energy Policy Driven By Virtue Signalling Halfwits
Australia’s Giant Renewables Rip-Off: Counting The Colossal Cost of Pointless Virtue Signalling
Australia’s obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar has absolutely nothing to do with the climate. Although, you could be forgiven for thinking the $70 billion in subsidies set to be squandered on that pathetic pair must have some kind of environmental benefit. Otherwise, what’s the point? When the sun sets and/or calm weather sets … Continue reading Australia’s Giant Renewables Rip-Off: Counting The Colossal Cost of Pointless Virtue Signalling
Sanity Shutdown: Staggering Cost of Australia’s Renewable Energy Policy
The economic destruction wreaked by Australia’s obsession with intermittent wind and solar was perfectly predictable and perfectly avoidable. Power prices have rocketed out-of-control, energy hungry industries are chopped from the grid whenever sunset and/or calm weather coincides with heavy demand during very hot or very cold weather. The boffins in charge of this calamity cynically … Continue reading Sanity Shutdown: Staggering Cost of Australia’s Renewable Energy Policy
Mission Possible: Australia’s Renewable Energy Scam Destroying Reliable & Affordable Baseload Power
Australia is in the process of destroying what was the world’s most reliable and affordable power supply. The destruction is all down to heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Meanwhile, our major Asian trading partners, China and Japan are chewing up Australian coal and uranium as fast as we can ship it – … Continue reading Mission Possible: Australia’s Renewable Energy Scam Destroying Reliable & Affordable Baseload Power
Wind Industry ‘Pay’ Cut: Whopping Transmission Losses See Remote Wind Farm Revenue Slashed
The Australian wind industry has a habit of spearing its turbines way beyond the back of beyond. Increasingly remote wind farm locations require serious upgrades to transmission infrastructure, adding hundreds of $millions to transmission costs, that would have otherwise been avoided, had Australia simply stuck with conventional generators and not squandered $60,000,000,000 in subsidies to … Continue reading Wind Industry ‘Pay’ Cut: Whopping Transmission Losses See Remote Wind Farm Revenue Slashed
Suicide Road: Australia’s Renewable Energy Crisis Threatens Thousands of Well-Paid Jobs
An obsession with renewables sent power prices into orbit, destroying thousands of manufacturing jobs. Farmers irrigating crops and vines and milking cows, aquaculture outfits rearing abalone and finfish, mineral processors and miners are next. The relationship between having reliable and affordable electricity and sustaining profitable enterprise is entirely lost on Labor and the Greens. … Continue reading Suicide Road: Australia’s Renewable Energy Crisis Threatens Thousands of Well-Paid Jobs
Idiocracy Rules: Brainwashed Brats Ditch School to Bleat For All Wind & Sun Powered Future
Apparently, RE zealots think illiterate school kids ranting about wind and solar saving us from imminent global incineration is a good thing. Putting aside the central premise and the debate about whether carbon dioxide gas (a naturally occurring, beneficial trace gas essential for life on earth) is just plant food or a pernicious and deadly … Continue reading Idiocracy Rules: Brainwashed Brats Ditch School to Bleat For All Wind & Sun Powered Future
Nationals Emergency: Queensland MPs Demand Coal-Fired Power Plants to Quell Rocketing Power Prices
Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy calamity is existential for communities that support energy hungry businesses. Not that you’d know it from the noises that emanate from the Nation’s capital, Canberra. The Greens would destroy capitalism in a heartbeat, should they ever get control of the joint. So, those engaged in profitable enterprise can’t expect any … Continue reading Nationals Emergency: Queensland MPs Demand Coal-Fired Power Plants to Quell Rocketing Power Prices
Power Play: Call for Reliable & Affordable Electricity Means Investing in New Coal-Fired Plant
Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy calamity sent power prices through the roof, leaving hundreds of thousands unable to afford power. In this country blessed with abundant reserves of coal, gas and uranium. It’s Australia’s Great Shame. The causes are all political; driven by the delusional hard-green-left that people the Greens and that now dominates the Labor … Continue reading Power Play: Call for Reliable & Affordable Electricity Means Investing in New Coal-Fired Plant
