There’s nothing vaguely ‘renewable’ about wind and solar - when panels and turbines give up the ghost after a decade or so, the panels are crushed and dumped in landfills, as are millions of turbine blades. None of which is recycled; none of which is renewable. The panels and turbines are completely replaced and the … Continue reading Worn Out Wind Turbines & Solar Panels Are Replaceable NOT Renewable

Storage Stories: Why Giant Batteries Can’t Solve Wind & Solar Power’s Natural Intermittency
It only takes a moment’s reckoning to appreciate that the grid-scale storage electricity generated by wind or solar is a perfect nonsense. It hasn’t occurred anywhere in the world; nor will it. The combined capacity of all of the batteries on Earth would store a trivial 10 minute’s worth of the World’s electricity needs. The … Continue reading Storage Stories: Why Giant Batteries Can’t Solve Wind & Solar Power’s Natural Intermittency
Renewable Energy Regrets: Intermittent Wind & Solar Delivers Grid Chaos for Californians
The only thing that’s inevitable about the so-called ‘transition’ to wind and solar is rocketing prices and grid chaos. The inability to deliver electricity as and when it’s needed, mean wind and solar have no commercial value - apart from the massive subsidies they attract. Being commercially worthless is one thing, but dumping volumes of … Continue reading Renewable Energy Regrets: Intermittent Wind & Solar Delivers Grid Chaos for Californians
Fractions & Fantasy: Grid Scale Battery Storage Completely Insignificant
For almost a century, electricity generation and distribution were treated as a tightly integrated system: it was designed and built as one, and is meant to operate as designed. However, the chaotic delivery of wind and solar have all but trashed the electricity generation and delivery system, as we know it. Germany and South Australia … Continue reading Fractions & Fantasy: Grid Scale Battery Storage Completely Insignificant
