In their wilder moments, the wind and solar acolyte proclaims that an all-wind and sun-powered future is upon us. Never mind sunset; never mind dead calm weather; and never mind the fact that the idea that giant lithium-ion batteries economically storing wind and solar power at grid-scale is pure hokum - for the dreamer, the … Continue reading Dreamer’s Disease: No Way On Earth That Wind & Solar Can Provide 100% of Our Energy Needs

Another Summer of Discontent: Wind & Solar Obsession Leaves Californians Scrambling for Reliable Power
The sweeping blackouts that struck California last summer are back with a vengeance; another heatwave, another scramble for reliable power. The power rationing debacle that is plaguing Californians once again, is precisely what you’d expect when woolly-headed thinking overtakes sound engineering. The state-wide blackout that struck in mid-August 2020, was put down by officials to … Continue reading Another Summer of Discontent: Wind & Solar Obsession Leaves Californians Scrambling for Reliable Power
Californian Cover-up: Evidence Reveals Unreliable Renewables Causing California’s Summer-time Blackouts
The pro wind and solar camp have made every effort to conceal the cause of mass blackouts in California, Texas, Germany and South Australia. With a pliant mainstream press complicit in the cover-up, it’s little wonder that the average Joe has no idea what’s going on. Well, that’s what sites like STT and Master Resource … Continue reading Californian Cover-up: Evidence Reveals Unreliable Renewables Causing California’s Summer-time Blackouts
Calculated Destruction: California’s $5 Trillion Plan to Wreck Its Power Grid With 100% Wind & Solar
California is synonymous with rocketing power prices and mass summer blackouts, courtesy of subsidised wind and solar. Last summer, whenever periods of peak demand coincided with sunset and calm weather, millions were plunged into sweltering darkness. But, for Californians, that indignity was simply a taste of things to come. That’s if California is truly serious … Continue reading Calculated Destruction: California’s $5 Trillion Plan to Wreck Its Power Grid With 100% Wind & Solar
Regressive Renewables: California’s Wind & Solar Obsession Crushing the Poor & Vulnerable
Californian punk outfit, the Dead Kennedys sang about killing the poor. California’s renewables obsession is doing just that: power prices are now well out of reach for the working poor and its minorities are most affected. Over the last 20 years, Californian policymakers have shovelled billions in subsidies to intermittent wind and solar. The result: … Continue reading Regressive Renewables: California’s Wind & Solar Obsession Crushing the Poor & Vulnerable
Climate Cult Would Take Californians Back to The Dark Ages With All Wind & Solar Future
If this Summer’s power rationing and rolling blackouts weren’t enough, California’s wind and solar worshippers are determined to deliver much more of the same. One of their hopes is to ban all household gas appliances, forcing families to use electric powered kit, instead. The premise is that all the power needed will come courtesy of … Continue reading Climate Cult Would Take Californians Back to The Dark Ages With All Wind & Solar Future
Californian Blackout Fury: “It’s Not Just the Heat, It’s Also the Anti-Nuclear Power Stupidity”
California’s self-inflicted renewable energy debacle has attracted global attention. Policymakers have led with their chins by promoting chaotically intermittent wind and solar, all the while trashing ever-reliable nuclear power - with perfectly predictable results. With the (not-so) Golden State scrambling for power during a sweltering summer the decision to shutter nuclear plants looks positively criminal. … Continue reading Californian Blackout Fury: “It’s Not Just the Heat, It’s Also the Anti-Nuclear Power Stupidity”
Sweeping Blackouts Mean California’s ‘Green’ Energy Fantasy Just Got Real
California’s sweeping blackouts are a fair indication of what happens when sound engineering gets trumped by woolly-headed ideology. An obsession with intermittent wind and solar has left millions of Californians sweltering in the dark this summer. With the blackout that struck in mid-August, officials blamed the “unexpected loss of a 470-megawatt power plant Saturday evening, … Continue reading Sweeping Blackouts Mean California’s ‘Green’ Energy Fantasy Just Got Real
Wake Up Australia: Time to Kill Renewable Subsidies and Avoid California’s Wind & Solar Disaster
Those who ignore history are doomed to suffer it all over again, even if it’s the recent history of California’s mass blackouts. Of course, Australians need only look to South Australia (its wind and solar capital) for an understanding of how an obsession with subsidised renewables is guaranteed to send power prices into orbit and … Continue reading Wake Up Australia: Time to Kill Renewable Subsidies and Avoid California’s Wind & Solar Disaster
Code Black: Mass Blackouts Just Beginning of California’s Renewable Energy Debacle
California’s a place renowned for its woolly-headed thinking, not least its suicidal obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar. A couple weeks back, during a blistering Californian Summer, a spike in electricity demand (think millions of air conditioners running at full tilt) combined with calm weather, desert cloud cover and, later, sunset to leave millions … Continue reading Code Black: Mass Blackouts Just Beginning of California’s Renewable Energy Debacle
