Always-on nuclear wins on safety, price and reliability in any contest with diffuse and chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Running around-the-clock, whatever the weather, with no need for batteries and no need for back up, nuclear power is the perfect foil for those fretting about carbon dioxide gas emissions. Because it generates power reliably and … Continue reading Nuclear Wins Price & Reliability Contest Hands Down

Propaganda Overdrive: Wind & Solar Industries Desperate to Prevent Nuclear Powered Future
Crony capitalists, overfed on massive wind and solar subsidies, are pulling out all stops to cruel the chances of a nuclear-powered future. Nothing sharpens an entrepreneur’s mind like real competition. And, usually, the first move is to knock out the competition before it reaches the field. Which is where Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research … Continue reading Propaganda Overdrive: Wind & Solar Industries Desperate to Prevent Nuclear Powered Future
Faking It: Why ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Claims Never Stack Up
Like any ideological cult, wind and solar acolytes bury troublesome facts and replace them with oodles of helpful fiction. Start with the supposed cost of the electricity occasionally generated by wind turbines and solar panels. The usual trick is to invent some model said to capture the unique benefits of running on sunshine and breezes. … Continue reading Faking It: Why ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Claims Never Stack Up
Tap Into Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar: Get Ready For Punishing Power Bills
Being pounded with 20% increases in power bills, year after year, is all part of the grand wind and solar transition. Every single country that’s tapped into subsidised wind and solar has seen retail power prices rocket - no exceptions. It’s one case where whatever goes up, never comes down. The promise of cheap electricity … Continue reading Tap Into Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar: Get Ready For Punishing Power Bills
Consumers Carry Colossal Cost of Getting Wind & Solar From Nowhere to Somewhere
The grand wind and solar transition comes with a staggering pricetag, not least the $trillions required to connect far-flung wind turbines and solar panels to increasingly distant markets. Building a secondary network of high voltage transmission lines and interconnectors to carry the power occasionally generated by wind turbines and solar panels, spread far and wide, … Continue reading Consumers Carry Colossal Cost of Getting Wind & Solar From Nowhere to Somewhere
