Before ideologues launched their grand wind and solar 'transition', gas was rarely used to generate power if coal, nuclear or hydro sources were available. Gas-fired electricity, in the main, was simply too expensive, by comparison with coal-fired power. Coal-fired generators are designed to run around-the-clock. Wind turbines and solar panels only run according to the … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Really Means Burning Way More Gas

Grand Theft: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Squanders $Trillions in Taxpayers’ Cash
The hundreds of $billions paid in subsidies to intermittent wind and solar constitute the largest wealth transfer in economic history - from unwitting power consumers and taxpayers to a cabal of rent-seeking crony capitalists. Greed and avarice drives them, aided and abetted by government mandates, diktats and decrees. Built on lies and running on subsidies, … Continue reading Grand Theft: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Squanders $Trillions in Taxpayers’ Cash
Biden’s Impossible Dream: US Wind & Solar Energy ‘Transition’ Pure Fantasy
Believe the MSM, and you’d think that the grand wind and solar ‘transition’ is a race that’s already won. Peel the onion back, however, and you’ll find a very different picture, indeed. The wilder claims from rent-seekers the louder the cheers of witless approval from the stands. At present, the USA and Australia are running … Continue reading Biden’s Impossible Dream: US Wind & Solar Energy ‘Transition’ Pure Fantasy
Reliable & Affordable Energy Is Life Itself: Why Wind & Solar Are Making Us All Worse Off
Deprive a well-fed Westerner of energy for more than a few hours and you’ll get their attention. The reliable and affordable power supplies that we’ve taken for granted were built up over a century. A raft of suicidal energy policies introduced in the last 20 years will have them destroyed before this decade is out. … Continue reading Reliable & Affordable Energy Is Life Itself: Why Wind & Solar Are Making Us All Worse Off
Future Mining: Fake ‘Green’ Energy Transition Entirely Dependent On Coal, Oil & Gas
Any enquiring mind has already rumbled the fact that the grand wind and solar reset is a great ‘green’ fraud. Wind turbines, solar panels and mythical mega-batteries require more energy to produce than they’ll ever repay. Miners love it, of course, with the insatiable demand that’s been generated by delusional autocrats and cynical rent-seekers. Although, … Continue reading Future Mining: Fake ‘Green’ Energy Transition Entirely Dependent On Coal, Oil & Gas
Renewable Cult’s Claim That ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Cut Power Bills Goes Up In Smoke
The claim that wind and solar guarantee falling power bills is being revealed for the big fat lie that it truly is. It's a reality that is catching up with a vengeance for Australians gullible enough to have bought it. Tens of $billions have already been squandered on subsidies to chaotically intermittent wind and solar … Continue reading Renewable Cult’s Claim That ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Cut Power Bills Goes Up In Smoke
Reality Collision Course: World Accelerates Towards Subsidised Wind & Solar Trainwreck
Before the wind and sun cult took charge, the power grid was designed and run by engineers - using coal, a little gas, hydro and nuclear (everywhere else in the world except Australia, that is). It ran like clockwork; power was cheap as chips and delivered on demand. Electrical storms were the only thing that … Continue reading Reality Collision Course: World Accelerates Towards Subsidised Wind & Solar Trainwreck
No Mystery: Human Progress Begins & Ends With Access to Reliable & Affordable Power
The misanthropes who glue themselves to roads and berate us about the ‘horrors’ of nuclear, coal and gas-fired power aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed, to be sure. Living in a fact and consequence free zone, they’ve never stopped to think for a moment what life would be like without light, heat and power. … Continue reading No Mystery: Human Progress Begins & Ends With Access to Reliable & Affordable Power
‘Green’ Fraud: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Devouring The Planet’s Scarce Resources
Rent-seekers and the MSM keep telling us the transition to an all-wind and sun-powered future is not only inevitable, it's a cinch. The power pricing and supply calamity playing out in renewables-obsessed Germany and Britain stands as a pretty fair counterpoint, to that nonsense. Then, we’re told, it can all be done, provided it's “done … Continue reading ‘Green’ Fraud: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Devouring The Planet’s Scarce Resources
Chairman Mao Returns: ‘Green’ Energy Cult Delivers Another ‘Great Leap Forward’
The ‘transition’ to wind and solar is delivering punishing power prices to those who can least afford it, and the inevitable power rationing surrounding collapses in wind and solar output is crushing businesses of all shapes and sizes. The zealots behind it couldn’t care less about the vulnerable and impoverished that drift along at the … Continue reading Chairman Mao Returns: ‘Green’ Energy Cult Delivers Another ‘Great Leap Forward’
