Intermittent wind and solar are a guarantee of rocketing power prices and rocketing power prices are a guarantee of economic destruction. An energy-hungry world will never satisfy its needs by pinning consumers’ hopes on the weather. But that’s the model that our political betters have been pushing over the last 20 years. How we landed … Continue reading Subsidised Suicide: Unreliable Wind & Solar Guarantee Economic Self-Destruction

Manufacturing Unemployment: Net-Zero Target Will Destroy 650,000 Australian Jobs
Net-zero carbon dioxide targets are all about giving more subsidies to unreliable wind and solar which inevitably drive power prices through the roof. Increase power prices, as with any input cost, and profits inevitably diminish. Meaningful employment depends upon healthy and sustainable profits. So, as any student of that dismal science will readily tell you, … Continue reading Manufacturing Unemployment: Net-Zero Target Will Destroy 650,000 Australian Jobs
House of Pain: Net-Zero Emissions Target Means Rocketing Power Prices
Net-zero emissions targets are all about expanding and increasing subsidies to intermittent wind and solar. Power prices have rocketed in every country that’s seriously committed to wind and solar. The power pricing and supply calamity that’s currently panning out across Western Europe and the UK ought to register with anyone interested in reliable and affordable … Continue reading House of Pain: Net-Zero Emissions Target Means Rocketing Power Prices
Endless Subsidies For Unreliable Wind & Solar are an Economic Suicide Pact
Australia’s renewable energy target has subsidised wind and solar to the tune of more than $60 billion, wrecked its grid and driven power prices through the roof. Its manufacturing industry is in tatters (tens of thousands of jobs have disappeared forever); energy-intensive mineral processors, such as aluminium, copper lead and zinc smelters are on life … Continue reading Endless Subsidies For Unreliable Wind & Solar are an Economic Suicide Pact
Climate Warriors Furious Over India & China’s Insatiable Thirst for Coal-Fired Power
For years now, we’ve been told that “coal is dead” and that India and China will plump for wind and solar, instead of coal-fired power. Well, that’s the line being run by renewable energy rent seekers and wind and solar zealots around the globe. It is, of course, complete bunkum. With hundreds of millions still … Continue reading Climate Warriors Furious Over India & China’s Insatiable Thirst for Coal-Fired Power
Suicide Pact: Subsidised Wind & Solar Designed to Wreck First World Economies
One of China’s principal strengths is its ability to harness cheap and reliable nuclear and coal-fired power. Contrast that with Australia’s energy policies deliberately hostile to coal and nuclear power, and it’s hard not to conclude that our political betters are in cahoots with the CCP. The Roman Empire didn’t collapse because the barbarians to … Continue reading Suicide Pact: Subsidised Wind & Solar Designed to Wreck First World Economies
Power Politics: Want to Win Elections? Then Don’t Ignore Spiralling Electricity Prices
With Biden and the Squad in the White House, the Californian experience of spiralling power prices will soon be delivered to all Americans, thanks to a raft of suicidal renewable energy policies that are about to be landed across the USA. The energy hungry businesses and industries that Trump brought home, will soon start packing … Continue reading Power Politics: Want to Win Elections? Then Don’t Ignore Spiralling Electricity Prices
Endless $Billions: Counting The Hidden Cost of Renewables on Electricity Prices
Uncovering the true costs of intermittent wind and solar is like playing hide and seek while blindfolded. In Australia, the subsidies doled out under the Federal Government’s Large-Scale Renewable Energy Target and its domestic cousin, the Small-Scale Renewable Energy Scheme, that covers rooftop solar and other household rorts, adds at least $4 billion a year … Continue reading Endless $Billions: Counting The Hidden Cost of Renewables on Electricity Prices
Barking Mad: Australia’s Ludicrous Plan To Send Subsidised Solar Power 3,350KM From Darwin to Singapore
Australia’s energy policy is a joke, but a plan to send subsidised solar power to Singapore proves lunatics really have taken over the asylum. The Morrison Federal government has given major project status to a 10GW undersea cable to run from Darwin to Singapore over a distance of at least 3,350 km. The cost of … Continue reading Barking Mad: Australia’s Ludicrous Plan To Send Subsidised Solar Power 3,350KM From Darwin to Singapore
Monash Forum’s Renewables Revolt: Australian MPs Demand End to Subsidised Wind & Solar
Common sense rarely needs an advocate. But when the subject is Australian energy policy, common sense left the building years ago. Now, it's returned with a vengeance: 30 Nationals and Liberal MPs have formed the Monash Forum, to demand an end to the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time: massively subsidised, utterly unreliable … Continue reading Monash Forum’s Renewables Revolt: Australian MPs Demand End to Subsidised Wind & Solar
