Donald J Trump’s blitzkrieg on the great subsidised wind and solar scam continues apace. Having openly declared total war on the wind and solar industry rent-seekers, the 47th President is following through with a new round battle plans aimed at annihilating those profiting from the greatest economic and environmental fraud, of all time. Which brings … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 24 August 2025

Fade to Black: One Of These (Calm) Nights You’ll Be Freezing or Boiling In The Dark
The grand ‘wind and solar transition’ sounds great until you’re left freezing or boiling in the dark - the only inevitable outcome of attempting to run on nothing but sunshine and breezes. Solar output collapses on a regular, daily basis (a phenomenon that’s been referred to as ‘Sunset’ for some time now). Even when the … Continue reading Fade to Black: One Of These (Calm) Nights You’ll Be Freezing or Boiling In The Dark
It’s The Weather, Stupid: When The Wind Won’t Blow, The Power Don’t Flow
The wind industry and its acolytes are none too happy with the weather, because when the wind don’t blow, the power just don’t flow. At a loss to brush away the inherent chaos involved with wind power delivery, these characters are left to curse what they call ‘wind droughts’, as if the weather was something … Continue reading It’s The Weather, Stupid: When The Wind Won’t Blow, The Power Don’t Flow
Weather Conspires: Wind Industry Battered By Persistent & Pernicious ‘Wind Droughts’
To call Australia’s wind power output “pathetic” is to flatter it. Turbines with a total capacity of 10,277 MW are spread from Far North Queensland, across New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia - and all connected to the Eastern Grid. On rare occasions, the combined output reaches around 60% of their total notional … Continue reading Weather Conspires: Wind Industry Battered By Persistent & Pernicious ‘Wind Droughts’
Real Nowhere ‘Plan’: Why The Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Is Doomed to Failure
Anyone familiar with the weather and sunset, could have told you it would never work; the grand renewable energy transition, that is. The wind and sun cult have been claiming outright victory for years, although the scoreboard doesn’t seem to reflect their exuberant claims. The future for coal-fired power has never looked brighter; China and … Continue reading Real Nowhere ‘Plan’: Why The Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Is Doomed to Failure
Climate Changed: Calm, Gloomy Weather Killing Europe’s Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
In the mother of all ironies, Europe’s wind and sun cult are complaining about uncooperative weather. The Germans have even coined a word for it: ‘dunkelflaute’ - meaning a period of gloomy, windless weather. Which, in reality, means little or nothing by way of output from their more than 30,000 wind turbines and millions of … Continue reading Climate Changed: Calm, Gloomy Weather Killing Europe’s Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’
Energy In-a-Nutshell: Constant Calm Weather Means Wind Power Will Never Work
It doesn't take a genius to connect calm weather with total collapses in wind power output. Even the functionally illiterate have the capacity to understand just how incapable wind power is of delivering power on demand. For example, depicted above – courtesy of Aneroid Energy – is the output delivered by Australian wind power outfits to … Continue reading Energy In-a-Nutshell: Constant Calm Weather Means Wind Power Will Never Work
Dead Calm Weather Exposes The Great ‘Green’ Energy Lie Almost Every Single Day
If you believe that the ‘cheque’s in the mail’, ‘the wind is always blowing somewhere’ and ‘the sun never sets’, you’ll believe anything. STT is dedicated to exposing the lie that we are well on our way to an inevitable transition to an all-wind and sun-powered future. What’s depicted above – courtesy of Aneroid Energy – … Continue reading Dead Calm Weather Exposes The Great ‘Green’ Energy Lie Almost Every Single Day
Risible Renewables: Weather-Dependent Wind Power – Never There When You Need It Most
Pin your energy needs on the weather, and prepare for disappointment, over and over and over again. South Australians know it, Germans know it, Texans and Californians know it, all too well. In the latter part of 2021, as the Big Calm descended across Western Europe, Brits learned all about it, too. Quietly firing up … Continue reading Risible Renewables: Weather-Dependent Wind Power – Never There When You Need It Most
‘Green’ Energy Delusions: Promise of All Wind & Solar Powered Future Is Pure Fantasy
Anyone still talking about an ‘inevitable transition’ to wind and solar power must have skin in the game. That wind and solar fail to deliver when consumers need power most, is hardly news. STT has been laying it out on these pages since December 2012. Since then, sunset and calm weather have continued to smash … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Delusions: Promise of All Wind & Solar Powered Future Is Pure Fantasy
