You know RE scammers are on the ropes, when they start talking about non-existent grid-scale batteries, pumped hydro and, the latest lunacy, converting chaotically intermittent wind and solar into hydrogen gas. In the beginning, when the quizzical pressed them about the inherent unreliability of wind and solar, it was brushed off with glib statements such … Continue reading Beyond Redemption: Germany’s Suicidal Wind & Solar Obsession Delivers Energy Debacle

Hydrogen Hyperbole: Debunking Overblown Claims That Hydrogen Can Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Renewable energy rent seekers claim converting useless, unpredictable and unreliable wind and solar power into hydrogen gas is a cinch. Sure, the notion of turning useless electricity into something that can be used as and when consumers need it - rather than something that depends on the whims of mother nature - makes sense - … Continue reading Hydrogen Hyperbole: Debunking Overblown Claims That Hydrogen Can Save Intermittent Wind & Solar
Pure Nonsense: No Economic Case for Converting Wind or Solar Power To Hydrogen Gas
Converting excess wind and solar to hydrogen gas is the Federal government’s most ludicrous ‘answer’ to its self-inflicted renewable energy debacle. The majority of hydrogen available on the market (around 95%) is produced from fossil fuels by steam reforming or partial oxidation of methane and coal gasification with only a tiny fraction produced by way … Continue reading Pure Nonsense: No Economic Case for Converting Wind or Solar Power To Hydrogen Gas
No Future: Australia’s Renewable Energy Roadmap = Road To Economic Ruin & Despair
Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity was entirely self-inflicted; the consequence of an obsession with heavily subsidised and totally unreliable wind and solar. The recent policy announcement by PM, Scott Morrison (referred to as his ‘Energy Roadmap’) is like using a Band-Aid to treat a severed leg. Everything that features as an ‘answer’ to … Continue reading No Future: Australia’s Renewable Energy Roadmap = Road To Economic Ruin & Despair
Bad Medicine: Why Hydrogen Gas Ain’t No Cure For Intermittent Wind & Solar
There’s a whiff of desperation surrounding wind and solar advocates touting hydrogen gas as the next ‘green’ energy Nirvana. Renewable energy rent seekers have seized on the concept of producing hydrogen gas using wind and solar as a way of converting useless, unpredictable and unreliable electricity into something that can be used as and when … Continue reading Bad Medicine: Why Hydrogen Gas Ain’t No Cure For Intermittent Wind & Solar
Energy Magic: Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Pin Their Future on Great Hydrogen Hoax
RE rent seekers are touting hydrogen gas produced with unpredictable and unreliable wind and solar power as the next 'green' energy Nirvana. If producing industrial volumes of hydrogen using electricity were even vaguely economic, then the obvious way of doing so would be to use coal-fired power; the cheapest and most reliable power source, of … Continue reading Energy Magic: Wind & Solar ‘Industries’ Pin Their Future on Great Hydrogen Hoax
Path to Recovery: Scrapping Subsidies to Never-Reliable Wind & Solar Key to Economic Revival
There’s a reason that South Australians suffer the world’s highest retail power prices; and that’s because it’s the world’s wind and solar capital. It is an economic backwater, with Australia’s highest rate of unemployment, which can only worsen after the Draconian COVID-19 lockdowns imposed on commercial and social life destroyed thousands of jobs, many of … Continue reading Path to Recovery: Scrapping Subsidies to Never-Reliable Wind & Solar Key to Economic Revival
Hydrogen Hoax: Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Demand Subsidies To Convert Their Chaotic Power Into Gas
Producing hydrogen gas using chaotically intermittent wind and solar is only the latest hoax being peddled by renewable energy rent seekers and other crony capitalists. The majority of hydrogen available on the market (around 95%) is produced from fossil fuels by steam reforming or partial oxidation of methane and coal gasification with only a tiny … Continue reading Hydrogen Hoax: Wind & Solar Rent-Seekers Demand Subsidies To Convert Their Chaotic Power Into Gas
