Any country serious about its energy future soon gets serious about coal-fired power. China, India, Indonesia, Japan and Vietnam are in the process of building 600 new coal-fired power plants, between them, adding to a fleet of hundreds of plants which have been operating for generations. And there’s a reason: coal-fired power is reliable and … Continue reading No Serious Contest: Never-Reliable Wind Power Simply Can’t Beat Ever-Reliable Coal-Fired Power

Insatiable: Coal-Fired Power Continues its Dominance in Energy Hungry China
The anti-energy/anti-civilisation squad keep predicting the end of coal and coal-fired power. But in China and India the demand for the black stuff - and the cheap and reliable power it delivers - is insatiable, and rising. Notwithstanding a global economic wind down during the Covid-19 outbreak, Chinese demand for coal is about to reach … Continue reading Insatiable: Coal-Fired Power Continues its Dominance in Energy Hungry China
Suicide Pact: Subsidised Wind & Solar Designed to Wreck First World Economies
One of China’s principal strengths is its ability to harness cheap and reliable nuclear and coal-fired power. Contrast that with Australia’s energy policies deliberately hostile to coal and nuclear power, and it’s hard not to conclude that our political betters are in cahoots with the CCP. The Roman Empire didn’t collapse because the barbarians to … Continue reading Suicide Pact: Subsidised Wind & Solar Designed to Wreck First World Economies
Full-Steam Ahead: No End to China’s Insatiable Appetite For Coal-Fired Power
China isn’t even vaguely interested in intermittent wind and solar; it’s insatiable demand for coal to fuel coal-fired power plants tells the story, as does the fact that it continues to build new coal-fired plants, hand over fist. All despite claims by wind and solar cult that China will soon turn its nose up at … Continue reading Full-Steam Ahead: No End to China’s Insatiable Appetite For Coal-Fired Power
Second Rate Wind Power Side-lined In China’s Coal-Fired Economic Miracle
Despite claims by wind and solar acolytes that China is well on its way to an all renewables powered future, apparently, the black stuff still matters. A lot. A month or so back, Beijing banned Australian coal imports (dozens of ships loaded with Australian coal are sitting stuck in harbours along China’s south-east coast). Blackouts … Continue reading Second Rate Wind Power Side-lined In China’s Coal-Fired Economic Miracle
Massive Push For Coal & Nuclear Power Proves China’s Wind Power Investment All For Show
Inscrutable as ever, the Chinese pay plenty of lip service to unreliable wind and solar, but it’s coal and nuclear that are really powering the Middle Kingdom. China’s investment in new coal and nuclear power plants absolutely dwarfs spending on intermittent wind and solar. Indeed, as Dr John Constable details below, the pace of investment … Continue reading Massive Push For Coal & Nuclear Power Proves China’s Wind Power Investment All For Show
Coal Rush: China, Japan & India Back Coal-Fired Future With Hundreds of New Plants
Reports of the ‘death’ of coal have been greatly exaggerated, with the economic powerhouses of Asia - China, Japan and India - building new plants hand over fist. The pattern across Asia is unmistakable; unreliable wind and solar have been snubbed in favour of coal-fired power plants, with new nuclear plants running a close second. … Continue reading Coal Rush: China, Japan & India Back Coal-Fired Future With Hundreds of New Plants
Full-Steam Ahead: Nuclear Power’s Exponential Growth In Power Hungry China
No country serious about growth, industry and jobs is seriously relying on wind and solar power. China is building coal-fired power plants, hand over fist. And its efforts to build nuclear-powered plants are on the same trajectory. China Plans To Dominate The Global Nuclear Energy Push Oil Price Haley Zaremba 3 June 2020 China has … Continue reading Full-Steam Ahead: Nuclear Power’s Exponential Growth In Power Hungry China
Full-Steam Ahead: China Rejects Wind & Solar Power and Heads For Coal-Fired Future
No industrial economy has ever powered itself on sunshine and breezes; no country ever will. Wherever in the world the subsidies begin to dry up, so too has investment in new wind and solar capacity. Nowhere has that collapse been more prominent than in China. Which doesn’t quite fit with the meme that’s been run … Continue reading Full-Steam Ahead: China Rejects Wind & Solar Power and Heads For Coal-Fired Future
