The wind and solar ‘industries’ were built on lies and run on subsidies. The electricity that the occasionally produce has no commercial value, simply because it can’t be delivered as and when power consumers need it. And because their output can’t be controlled, producers get paid a fortune to produce nothing at all to prevent … Continue reading Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Built on Massive Subsidies and Even Bigger Lies

Tangled Webs: How Crony Capitalists Built The Climate Industrial Complex
Crony capitalists come in all shapes and sizes, and so do their political enablers. The whole point of patronage, networking and gladhanding is obtaining benefits not available to anyone else. The only people that complain about a rort are those that aren’t in on it. The Climate Industrial Complex was built on will the back … Continue reading Tangled Webs: How Crony Capitalists Built The Climate Industrial Complex
Total Disaster: Why Offshore Wind Power Is So Costly & Environmentally Destructive
Here’s everything you wanted to know about offshore wind power, and it’s all bad. The cost of generating occasional electricity offshore is positively insane, and getting worse. And that’s just to focus on the economics. Then there’s the mounting and irreparable environmental harm - ecologically destructive and deadly to marine mammals, as well as fishing … Continue reading Total Disaster: Why Offshore Wind Power Is So Costly & Environmentally Destructive
Battery Cost Blowout: No Economic Way of Storing Wind & Solar Power
The impossibility of storing wind and solar power to compensate for sunset and calm weather is pure arithmetic; the claims that it can be done economically, pure delusion. Sure, when they’re not exploding into toxic fireballs, giant lithium-ion batteries can store power generated (from any source) and release it on demand. However, the staggering cost … Continue reading Battery Cost Blowout: No Economic Way of Storing Wind & Solar Power
Renewable Energy Batteries: Toxic Timebombs, Delivering Truly Trivial Output
The grand wind and solar ‘transition’ looks ridiculous enough, but claims about giant batteries fixing the grand intermittency problem look positively idiotic. The cost of storing meaningful volumes of power is staggering, accordingly the volumes actually available for release into the grid are positively trivial. Then there’s the battle that giant lithium-ion batteries have with … Continue reading Renewable Energy Batteries: Toxic Timebombs, Delivering Truly Trivial Output
Broken Dreams: Constant Calm Weather Wiping Out Britain’s Wind Industry
The wind industry treats natural meteorological phenomenon - like calm weather - as a grand conspiracy. They’ve even coined their very own curse, calling such lengthy events “wind droughts”. Wind and solar-dependent Germans call gloomy, windless weather ‘dunkelflaute’. Wild claims being smashed by nature is a common feature of earthly hubris. Icarus learnt the hard … Continue reading Broken Dreams: Constant Calm Weather Wiping Out Britain’s Wind Industry
Practical Reality: Off-Road Campers Grapple With Solar Power’s Natural Limits
https://youtu.be/HQthAzrrzkg?si=QRqmGfcAuf0mIsPe The Sun cult reckon solar (with a few $trillion worth of lithium-ion batteries) is already capable of powering the planet. Reality begs to differ. The performance claims made by solar panel sales reps are always overhyped. Actual output never matches the numbers laid out in glossy brochures or on slick websites. A lot of … Continue reading Practical Reality: Off-Road Campers Grapple With Solar Power’s Natural Limits
Grand ‘Green’ Energy Flop: Europeans Wake Up to Wind & Solar Debacle
The results of attempting to rely on sunshine and breezes can’t be hidden forever. As wind and solar generating capacity increases, the inevitable consequences are soon revealed: namely, routine power rationing, mass blackouts and crippling power prices. And yet the acolytes continue to maintain that we’re only a few mythical mega-batteries away from an all-wind … Continue reading Grand ‘Green’ Energy Flop: Europeans Wake Up to Wind & Solar Debacle
Grand Lunacy: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Designed by Clueless Idiots
Reliable and affordable power supplies were built by engineers not ideologues. As the latter merrily destroy everything the engineers created, it’s worth identifying just how witless these characters are. These clowns would struggle with basic arithmetic, and have no hope when it comes to the laws of physics and principles of economics. No better example … Continue reading Grand Lunacy: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Designed by Clueless Idiots
Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)
Claims about an inevitable wind and solar transition show wishful thinking is no match for the laws of physics. Sunset (a daily occurrence, for the uninitiated) and calm weather (also a common and natural phenomenon) are where the physical reality begins; and the much-heralded shift to an all-wind and solar-powered future begins to unravel. Then … Continue reading Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)
