A Bigger Picture: Thank Malcolm Turnbull For Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity

Money For Jam: Intermittent & Unreliable Wind & Solar The Greatest Subsidy Scam In History
The so-called wind and solar ‘industries’ were built on lies, myths and propaganda and run on subsidies. As wind power ‘investor’ Warren Buffett put it: “We get a tax credit if we build a lot of wind farms. That’s the only reason to build them. They don’t make sense without the tax credit.” Buffett might … Continue reading Money For Jam: Intermittent & Unreliable Wind & Solar The Greatest Subsidy Scam In History

Crunch Time: Can Australia Escape its Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Calamity Before It’s Too Late?
Everything about Australia’s renewable energy calamity was perfectly predictable and perfectly avoidable. Throwing $60,000,000,000 in subsidies at chaotically intermittent wind and solar was a pretty good start. Placing lunatics in charge of the entire operation sealed the deal. Australia’s Eastern Grid (covering QLD, NSW, VIC, TAS, ACT & SA) is on the brink of … Continue reading Crunch Time: Can Australia Escape its Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Calamity Before It’s Too Late?
National Suicide: Australia’s Self-Inflicted Energy Crisis Driven by Wind & Solar Obsession
Australia’s energy policy reads like a National suicide note: power prices went from the lowest in the world to the highest, in little over a decade. Plotting the path to destruction is pretty easy: start by throwing $60 billion in subsidies at wind and large-scale solar, demonise cheap and reliable coal-fired power and put lunatics … Continue reading National Suicide: Australia’s Self-Inflicted Energy Crisis Driven by Wind & Solar Obsession
