Q: What did wind and solar-obsessed Westerners use before candles? A: Reliable and affordable electricity. And, before they became fixated on their attempt to run on nothing but sunshine and breezes, Westerners had reliable and affordable electricity in abundance. That was then. This is now. A burst of calm weather and sunset these days combines … Continue reading Candle Sales Soar As Britain Braces For More (Peacetime) Blackouts

Hard Time: Brits Face Prison For Using Power When the Wind’s Not Blowing
The wind and solar ‘transition’ was always going to end in a dystopian nightmare, but Brits are already living it. Power is routinely rationed whenever the wind drops and, perversely, households are encouraged to use electricity when wind speeds pick up. The simple truth is that Britain has destroyed its reliable and affordable power supply, … Continue reading Hard Time: Brits Face Prison For Using Power When the Wind’s Not Blowing
Europe’s Renewables Reckoning: Power Rationing & Punishing Power Prices Killing Thousands
For the poorest and most vulnerable, staying warm in winter is a daily battle for survival. Thanks to Europe’s (literally suicidal) wind and solar ‘transition’, power prices have spiralled out of control and in Germany power rationing is now routine, likewise in Britain. The Germans, of course, led the charge when it came to throwing … Continue reading Europe’s Renewables Reckoning: Power Rationing & Punishing Power Prices Killing Thousands
Some Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Britain’s Coal-Fired Plants Only Thing Preventing Total Blackouts
Depend on the weather for your power needs, then get ready for plenty of routine disappointment. Time and time again, Britain’s coal-fired power plants are called in to prevent total blackouts during calm and cloudy weather, of the kind that causes total collapses in wind and solar output. Notwithstanding efforts to drive them out of … Continue reading Some Wind & Solar ‘Transition’: Britain’s Coal-Fired Plants Only Thing Preventing Total Blackouts
Renewables Transition: ‘Demand Management’ Means Accepting Bribes to Suffer Blackouts
When the bulk of your power needs are supposed to come from sunshine and breezes, get ready for a lot of disappointment. Total collapses in wind and solar output routinely lead to large-scale, controlled blackouts - euphemistically known as ‘demand management’. Where smart meters are in play, the grid manager helpfully does it for you; … Continue reading Renewables Transition: ‘Demand Management’ Means Accepting Bribes to Suffer Blackouts
Power Grab: Struggling British Households Forced to Install Pre-Paid Smart Meters
With power prices soaring out of control, it’s little wonder that thousands of British families can’t afford electricity. Every time Britain is hit with a bout of calm weather, wholesale power prices go through the roof. In response to soaring wholesale power prices, the retail price cap that kept a lid on power bills over … Continue reading Power Grab: Struggling British Households Forced to Install Pre-Paid Smart Meters
Wind Power Collapses During Calm Weather Means Soaring Power Prices & Power Rationing
The British like to ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’, but panic sets in when calm weather hits and wind power output hits the floor. What follows is another round of opportunistic price gouging by the owners of Britain’s gas-fired power plants, and remaining coal-fired plants, able to charge ludicrous amounts for electricity simply because they’re … Continue reading Wind Power Collapses During Calm Weather Means Soaring Power Prices & Power Rationing
Vlad’s Victory: Europe Losing Energy War Thanks to Wind & Solar Obsession
Many a defeat is the product of a grand delusion; Europe’s obsession with wind and solar is just another example. Beaten by Vlad Putin’s ability to restrict the gas it needs to run fast-start-up gas peaking plants (essential to cover rapid and unpredictable collapses in wind output and rapid and wholly predictable collapses in solar … Continue reading Vlad’s Victory: Europe Losing Energy War Thanks to Wind & Solar Obsession
Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means End of Reliable & Affordable Power – Forever
The destruction of once reliable and affordable electricity supplies is so evidently deliberate, it can no longer be put down to ignorance, alone. Nothing but brazen ideology sits beneath the claim that we are a heartbeat away from a transition to an all wind and sun powered future. We are continually told that, putting aside … Continue reading Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means End of Reliable & Affordable Power – Forever
Murder – Not Suicide: Europe’s Renewable Energy Policy Threatens Lives & Livelihoods
When it comes to Europe’s wind and solar disaster, ignorance is no longer a defence. As STT has been pointing out for over a decade, the power pricing and supply calamity that follows any serious effort to rely on wind and solar is the only thing ‘inevitable’ about the so-called ‘transition’. What’s happened in Germany, … Continue reading Murder – Not Suicide: Europe’s Renewable Energy Policy Threatens Lives & Livelihoods
