The wind industry’s glory days are long gone: investment has collapsed across Europe, turbine manufacturers are losing $billions and dozens of offshore projects have been scrapped in the last 12 months. Call us a tad cynical, but if you offer a product that can’t be delivered on demand (which, accordingly, has no commercial value) and … Continue reading Dead Man Walking: Global Wind Industry’s Prospects Have Never Looked So Bad

Reality Bites: Europe’s Wind & Solar Disaster Forces Serious Reversal On ‘Green’ Transition
Eventually, order emerges from chaos. Thanks to the chaos of Europe’s self-inflicted wind and solar disaster, reality is starting to take hold, with the promise of order on the horizon. Investment in new wind turbines and solar panels has plummeted across Europe. Coal-fired power is back in vogue and nuclear plants are the next must-have. … Continue reading Reality Bites: Europe’s Wind & Solar Disaster Forces Serious Reversal On ‘Green’ Transition
Energy Transition: Germans Revolt Against Wind Power – As Power Prices Spiral Out of Control
Germany’s wind power transition has hit the wall: rural Germans are sick and tired of the noise, ruined landscapes and communities; and Germans of all persuasions are fed up with Europe’s highest power prices, which continue to rocket as a consequence of its so-called ‘renewable energy transition’ aka the ‘Energiewende’. Thanks to massive subsidies and … Continue reading Energy Transition: Germans Revolt Against Wind Power – As Power Prices Spiral Out of Control
Game Over: German Wind Industry In Free Fall As Renewable Energy ‘Transition’ Hits the Wall
Germany’s wind industry is now demolishing wind turbines faster than it can build them. During 2020, the Germans managed to add a paltry 200 new wind turbines to its fleet of over 30,000. Meanwhile, hundreds have already been demolished and - with hundreds more reaching the end of their economic life - the only growth … Continue reading Game Over: German Wind Industry In Free Fall As Renewable Energy ‘Transition’ Hits the Wall
Grinding Halt: Germany’s Wind Industry Faces Armageddon As Turbine Running Costs Escalate
Thousands of Germany’s wind turbines have reached the end of their economic lives; and replacing them is no simple matter. First, the costs of doing so are colossal. Secondly, the behemoths that might replace their ancestors are so large as to exceed the height limits placed on turbines by Germany’s planning rules. Pierre Gosselin can … Continue reading Grinding Halt: Germany’s Wind Industry Faces Armageddon As Turbine Running Costs Escalate
German Resistance: Furious Rural Residents Bring Wind Farm Construction to Dead Halt
Much to the horror of wind power promoters, all eyes are on Germany at the minute, with its wind industry in freefall, turbine manufacturers in ruin and rural residents in revolt. In 2019 less than 200 turbines were erected onshore [a figure of 325 is given below which apparently includes offshore turbines] and a trifling … Continue reading German Resistance: Furious Rural Residents Bring Wind Farm Construction to Dead Halt
Crunch Time: Germany’s Wind & Solar Disaster Leaves Germans Scrambling For Reliable Power
Germany’s obsession with intermittent wind and solar was never going to end well. Power prices are now the highest in Europe, if not the world. But paying for power is only a problem for those Germans who are lucky enough to be supplied with it. Wherever there’s an attempt to run on sunshine and breezes, … Continue reading Crunch Time: Germany’s Wind & Solar Disaster Leaves Germans Scrambling For Reliable Power
Total Shutdown: German Revolt Against Industrial Wind Power Brings Wind Farm Construction to Standstill
The German wind industry is in free-fall: new construction is at a standstill, in no small part due to the fact that rural Germans are in full-scale revolt against the wind industry. In 2019 less than 200 turbines were erected onshore and a trifling 160 are planned for 2020, so far. Tens of thousands of those … Continue reading Total Shutdown: German Revolt Against Industrial Wind Power Brings Wind Farm Construction to Standstill
Hush Money: Government Plans to Bribe German Families Complaining About Wind Turbine Noise to Quell Wind Farm Backlash
The wind industry in Germany is in freefall: in 2019 less than 200 turbines were erected onshore and a trifling 160 are planned for 2020, so far. Over the last two decades, heavily subsidised wind power outfits managed to spear almost 30,000 of these things across rural Germany. Driven mad by practically incessant, turbine generated … Continue reading Hush Money: Government Plans to Bribe German Families Complaining About Wind Turbine Noise to Quell Wind Farm Backlash
