In Orwell’s 1984, the Ministry of Plenty was quick to herald any positive statistic, however bogus. Standards of living were always rising; as was the production of food, shoelaces and ill-fitting boots. Triumphant announcements were made about the chocolate ration increasing, simultaneously that the ration was, in fact, being reduced. An example of what the … Continue reading ‘Ministry of Plenty’ Declares Weather-Driven Power Rationing All For The Greater Good

Renewables Regret: Power-Starved Europeans Rue Their Governments’ Wind & Solar Obsession
Eating cold baked beans in the dark might not be everyone’s idea of fun, but power-starved Europeans are getting used to that kind of indignity. German households and businesses are already suffering Europe’s highest power prices; since Putin’s Ukrainian adventure began, German power prices have rocketed, further still, recently hitting a record 40 US cents per … Continue reading Renewables Regret: Power-Starved Europeans Rue Their Governments’ Wind & Solar Obsession
Suicidal Sleepwalk: Time to Stop Emulating Europe’s Wind & Solar Obsession
As Germans and Brits stock up on woollen blankets and candles, the world has a chance to avoid the perfectly avoidable. In both cases, an obsession with chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar has them scrambling for reliable energy - as if thousands of lives depend on it - which they literally do. … Continue reading Suicidal Sleepwalk: Time to Stop Emulating Europe’s Wind & Solar Obsession
Transition to Poverty: Britain Being Crushed By Staggering Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
What does the ‘inevitable’ wind and solar transition look like? Try power-starved Britain, where power prices are out of control, with much, much worse to come. Last October, the average annual energy bill was £1,400 ($2,400). Energy industry analyst Cornwall Insight forecasts that the British price cap will skyrocket and the average annual bill will … Continue reading Transition to Poverty: Britain Being Crushed By Staggering Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
Oh So ‘Cheap’!: Power Prices Set to Quadruple in Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ Britain
The ultimate cost of renewable energy virtue signalling is truly crippling, wind and solar-obsessed Britain is a case in point. Power prices have doubled over the span of a few months and will quadruple as energy demand spikes again in winter. Attempting to ditch its coal-fired power plants (and converting them to run on wood … Continue reading Oh So ‘Cheap’!: Power Prices Set to Quadruple in Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ Britain
Time to Ditch Meaningless Medieval Wind Power & Embrace Modern Nuclear Power
Wind power was abandoned centuries ago, for pretty obvious reasons, known to kite flyers and sailors, since the beginning of time. Sure, in medieval times, when there was no alternative, harnessing nature’s energy make sense. But not now. It was coal that dragged Europe out of the Dark Ages, by providing around-the-clock power, not windmills. … Continue reading Time to Ditch Meaningless Medieval Wind Power & Embrace Modern Nuclear Power
Subsidised Renewables Revolt: Entrenched Energy Poverty Source of Next Revolution
Power prices driven through the roof by subsidised and unreliable wind and solar means electricity is out of reach for thousands of struggling households. Reliable and affordable electricity is at the heart of modern, socially stable societies. Deprive the masses of something that has been taken for granted for generations, and get set for serious … Continue reading Subsidised Renewables Revolt: Entrenched Energy Poverty Source of Next Revolution
Battle for Britain: Brits Scramble For Reliable Energy After Repeated Wind Power Failures
Hardly anyone in Britain is talking about wind power as a serious generation source, anymore. Total collapses in wind power output that lasted for days and even weeks, starting back in September, put paid to that kind of loose chatter. Instead, Brits appear to have been struck with the stark realisation that their power generation … Continue reading Battle for Britain: Brits Scramble For Reliable Energy After Repeated Wind Power Failures
Scam Alert: How ‘Green’ Energy Companies Are Ripping You Off
So-called ‘green’ power suppliers are finally being called out for the scammers that they truly are. Their pitch was that they would only ever supply you with electrons - lovingly caressed from sunshine and breezes - for a fraction of the cost of power generated using coal, nuclear or gas. Western Europe’s recent Big Calm … Continue reading Scam Alert: How ‘Green’ Energy Companies Are Ripping You Off
Want to Know Why Wind Power is Causing Blackouts in Britain? (It’s called “the Weather”)
No country has ever powered itself entirely with wind and solar power; no country ever will. In Britain, the threat of blackouts now looms every time the wind drops off, thanks to an overreliance on unreliable wind power. Back in August 2019 we reported on a mass blackout that struck Britain, when an offshore wind … Continue reading Want to Know Why Wind Power is Causing Blackouts in Britain?
