Insanity is doing that same thing over and over again and expecting different results, which is why STT raises an eyebrow (or two) at Boris Johnson’s persistent love affair with heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind power. His belief that taking it all offshore will make a difference, only confirms that this man has a … Continue reading Boris Johnson’s Bizarre Persistence With Unreliable Wind Power Defies All Logic & Reason

Great ‘Green’ Job Hoax: Only China Profits From Making Wind Turbines & Solar Panels
The promise of thousands of jobs building wind turbines and solar panels is a renewable energy mantra; there are - but only in China. China itself is building nuclear power plants and hundreds more coal-fired power plants, as if its economic livelihood depends on it. Meanwhile, in those Western countries foolish enough to attempt to … Continue reading Great ‘Green’ Job Hoax: Only China Profits From Making Wind Turbines & Solar Panels
‘Green’ Energy’s Epic Fail: Wind Gods Conspire to Ruin Europe’s Wind Power ‘Transition’
Europe’s ‘green’ energy transition has turned into high farce, with wind power output collapsing across the continent. The wind Gods are clearly angry. Britain and Germany have been in the doldrums for weeks; the gas needed to plug the gaps is in short supply, with the price of both gas and electricity, skyrocketing. The power … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy’s Epic Fail: Wind Gods Conspire to Ruin Europe’s Wind Power ‘Transition’
Climate Short-Changed: Big Calm Heralds Britain’s Renewable Energy Crunch
Appears the climate doomsayers were right: the ‘Big Calm’ has struck Britain and Western Europe - slashing wind power output, without relent. Far from being the panacea for a changing climate, wind power generation is now, apparently, a victim. Over the last few months, wind power output has thoroughly collapsed in Germany, across Western Europe … Continue reading Climate Short-Changed: Big Calm Heralds Britain’s Renewable Energy Crunch
Outbreak of Seriously Calm Weather Forces Brits Back to Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power
To the horror of the wind cult, Britain has been forced to fire up its coal-fired power plants. As if power consumers should have no power, at all, every time calm weather sets in. How dare householders and businesses demand power when they need it? Shouldn’t it be enough that they can have power whenever … Continue reading Outbreak of Seriously Calm Weather Forces Brits Back to Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power
Nero Fiddles: China’s Nuclear Power Push Threatens Any Country Still Toying With Wind & Solar
America’s retreat from Afghanistan has left the door wide open to an increasingly belligerent China. China takes itself very seriously on every front; whether it’s the question of military power or power, period. Building coal-fired power plants, hand over fist, the CCP couldn’t give a fig about CO2 emissions of the kind that have weather-warriors … Continue reading Nero Fiddles: China’s Nuclear Power Push Threatens Any Country Still Toying With Wind & Solar
Back-off Boris: Australia in No Mood for Lecture on Energy Policy from Brits
Boris ‘Bonkers’ Johnson is running energy policies that were written by and for the Greens. Touting an all-wind powered future and an end to fossil fuels, his little island nation has already experienced mass blackouts courtesy of its obsession with wind power and is set for a whole lot more if Johnson’s plans get anywhere … Continue reading Back-off Boris: Australia in No Mood for Lecture on Energy Policy from Brits
Renewable Energy Obsession Means Brits Pay £10.8 Billion in Wind & Solar Subsidies Every Year
Unreliable, inefficient and insanely costly, there’s plenty to dislike about subsidised wind and solar. British power prices have rocketed; ‘reliability’ is now just a catchphrase; energy poverty is the new normal; and its PM, Boris Johnson apparently couldn’t care less. Indeed, he seems even more fixated on unreliable and unaffordable power, than his predecessors. Dr … Continue reading Renewable Energy Obsession Means Brits Pay £10.8 Billion in Wind & Solar Subsidies Every Year
Don’t Believe The Hype: Britain’s Power Price Hike All Due to Subsidised Wind Power
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Brits are already paying the price for its suicidal renewable energy policies. Under ‘Bonkers’ Boris that price will be positively murderous. His plan to squander a further £50,000,000,000 on subsidies and over-the-market contracts for intermittent offshore wind power beggars belief. And will turn many on the lower … Continue reading Don’t Believe The Hype: Britain’s Power Price Hike All Due to Subsidised Wind Power
Going, Going, Gone: Renewables Sector Reels As 150,000 German ‘Green’ Jobs Evaporate
The great ‘green’ jobs ‘bonanza’ is being revealed for the hoax that it truly is. And nowhere is that reality harsher, than in Mutti Merkel’s Germany. Plastered in solar panels (albeit blanketed in snow and ice at the moment) and overrun with 30,000 of these things, Deutschland has been held up as a renewable energy … Continue reading Going, Going, Gone: Renewables Sector Reels As 150,000 German ‘Green’ Jobs Evaporate
