Politicians routinely crabwalk away from policy disasters. So it is in Britain where ever-reliable nuclear power has just been declared ‘green’ and essential to Britain’s energy future. Oversold and overhyped, in Europe, wind power now barely rates a mention amongst anyone serious about serious energy policy. Like that awkward, always-drunk uncle that everyone wants to … Continue reading Serious Energy: Britain Backs Ever-Reliable Nuclear Over Never-Reliable Wind Power

SMR Gold Rush: Smart Money Backing Small Modular Nuclear Reactors
Europe’s energy crisis is all down to its delusional reliance upon intermittent wind and solar, which is why the smart money is backing nuclear power, at any scale, including Small Modular Reactors. The list of operators investing in SMR technology is growing at such a rate that could be described as an investor gold rush. … Continue reading SMR Gold Rush: Smart Money Backing Small Modular Nuclear Reactors
Clear Winner: At Any Scale Safe, Reliable & Affordable Nuclear Is The Natural Energy Choice
There are 30 countries where you’ll find nearly 450 nuclear reactors currently operating – including the French, Americans, Canadians, Japanese and Chinese. Another 15 countries are currently building 60 reactors among them. Nuclear power output accounts for over 11% of global electricity production. But not a lick of it in Australia, thanks to an idiotic … Continue reading Clear Winner: At Any Scale Safe, Reliable & Affordable Nuclear Is The Natural Energy Choice
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

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
