Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 29 June 2025

With the addition of every wind turbine and solar panel, electricity grids inch closer to their inevitable collapse. The wind and sun cult remain delusional and rent-seekers wallowing in massive subsidies couldn’t care less. As certain as death and taxes, every single MW of chaotically intermittent wind and solar capacity has to be matched, somewhere … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 29 June 2025

Sunset & Calm Weather Reveal Wind and Solar’s Inherent & Fatal Flaw

If a 9-year-old proposed wind and solar as a generation system, you’d give her a gold star but tell her to do better next time. You’d go on to explain that electricity is needed around-the-clock, irrespective of the weather, and that households and businesses want to operate without interruption. Your tutorial on energy supply and … Continue reading Sunset & Calm Weather Reveal Wind and Solar’s Inherent & Fatal Flaw

Battery Cost Blowout: No Economic Way of Storing Wind & Solar Power

The impossibility of storing wind and solar power to compensate for sunset and calm weather is pure arithmetic; the claims that it can be done economically, pure delusion. Sure, when they’re not exploding into toxic fireballs, giant lithium-ion batteries can store power generated (from any source) and release it on demand. However, the staggering cost … Continue reading Battery Cost Blowout: No Economic Way of Storing Wind & Solar Power

Broken Dreams: Constant Calm Weather Wiping Out Britain’s Wind Industry

The wind industry treats natural meteorological phenomenon - like calm weather - as a grand conspiracy. They’ve even coined their very own curse, calling such lengthy events “wind droughts”. Wind and solar-dependent Germans call gloomy, windless weather ‘dunkelflaute’. Wild claims being smashed by nature is a common feature of earthly hubris. Icarus learnt the hard … Continue reading Broken Dreams: Constant Calm Weather Wiping Out Britain’s Wind Industry

Powering Down: Wind Industry Being Crippled By Relentless Wind Droughts

Long bursts of calm weather are no mystery to sailors and kite flyers, but the wind industry apparently never got the memo. Hence the type of indignation expressed when the wind fails to materialize - in its financial statements, Australian outfit, Infigen has repeatedly cursed the Wind Gods for its often-dismal profit results. The industry … Continue reading Powering Down: Wind Industry Being Crippled By Relentless Wind Droughts

Climate Changed: Calm, Gloomy Weather Killing Europe’s Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

In the mother of all ironies, Europe’s wind and sun cult are complaining about uncooperative weather. The Germans have even coined a word for it: ‘dunkelflaute’ - meaning a period of gloomy, windless weather. Which, in reality, means little or nothing by way of output from their more than 30,000 wind turbines and millions of … Continue reading Climate Changed: Calm, Gloomy Weather Killing Europe’s Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’

Energy In-a-Nutshell: Constant Calm Weather Means Wind Power Will Never Work

It doesn't take a genius to connect calm weather with total collapses in wind power output. Even the functionally illiterate have the capacity to understand just how incapable wind power is of delivering power on demand. For example, depicted above – courtesy of Aneroid Energy – is the output delivered by Australian wind power outfits to … Continue reading Energy In-a-Nutshell: Constant Calm Weather Means Wind Power Will Never Work

Dead Calm Weather Exposes The Great ‘Green’ Energy Lie Almost Every Single Day

If you believe that the ‘cheque’s in the mail’, ‘the wind is always blowing somewhere’ and ‘the sun never sets’, you’ll believe anything. STT is dedicated to exposing the lie that we are well on our way to an inevitable transition to an all-wind and sun-powered future. What’s depicted above – courtesy of Aneroid Energy – … Continue reading Dead Calm Weather Exposes The Great ‘Green’ Energy Lie Almost Every Single Day

World’s Woeful Wind Power Output Spells Doom For Renewable Energy Rent Seekers

Don McLean’s American Pie was all about the day the music died; 2021 was all about the year that the wind industry died. Its well-worn claim that wind power is just a heartbeat away from replacing meaningful power sources - such as coal, gas and nuclear - took a battering across the globe last year. … Continue reading World’s Woeful Wind Power Output Spells Doom For Renewable Energy Rent Seekers

Climate Short-Changed: Big Calm Heralds Britain’s Renewable Energy Crunch

Appears the climate doomsayers were right: the ‘Big Calm’ has struck Britain and Western Europe - slashing wind power output, without relent. Far from being the panacea for a changing climate, wind power generation is now, apparently, a victim. Over the last few months, wind power output has thoroughly collapsed in Germany, across Western Europe … Continue reading Climate Short-Changed: Big Calm Heralds Britain’s Renewable Energy Crunch
