Following California’s Renewable Energy Lead Guarantees Rocketing Power Prices & Blackouts
In their sillier moments, the wind and sun cult point to places like California or Germany as prime examples of energy Nirvana. Then come the facts.

‘Green’ Energy Myth Exposed: Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam Built On Perpetual Lies
The wind and solar industries were founded on myth, built on lies and run on subsidies. The only thing they are capable of producing on a consistent basis are Pinocchio-style whoppers, starting with the notion that wind and solar power are actually good for the environment. Breached promises about delivering power on demand are met … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Myth Exposed: Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam Built On Perpetual Lies

Daily Disaster: Blackouts Only Reward For California’s Wind & Solar Nightmare
If insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results, then California’s a clear candidate for the asylum. Over the last 20 years, its maniacal wind and solar obsession has cost Californians dearly: they suffer America’s highest power prices and, when the mercury soars, are lucky to get any power, at all. Energy … Continue reading Daily Disaster: Blackouts Only Reward For California’s Wind & Solar Nightmare
The Hidden Victims of ‘Green’ Virtue Signalling: Renewable Energy Costs Crushing Working Poor
Subsidised wind and solar is a playground for the vain, rich and cynical, and its victims are always on the wrong side of the tracks; unseen and unheard. Energy poverty is now an entrenched feature of first-world economies wherever wind and solar play any prominence in power systems. And it’s not simply the fact that … Continue reading The Hidden Victims of ‘Green’ Virtue Signalling: Renewable Energy Costs Crushing Working Poor
Terminal Power Policy: California’s Wind & Solar Crusade Destined for Epic Failure
Those claiming that we’ll soon be exclusively powered by wind and solar clearly failed arithmetic. To keep an electricity grid functioning requires a precise volume of power to be generated and transmitted that precisely matches the volume of power consumed, over time and at all times. Sunset and/or calm weather have the, rather obvious, effect … Continue reading Terminal Power Policy: California’s Wind & Solar Crusade Destined for Epic Failure
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.

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
