Doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results is insanity. And, so it is, with a gaggle of Australian MPs still wedded to the delusion that you can run an economy on sunshine and breezes. South Australia set the benchmark: with a grid on the brink of collapse and the world’s highest power prices, … Continue reading Renewable Energy Wars: MP’s Push For Reliable Coal-Fired Power Means D-Day for Wind & Solar

RE Madness Must End Now: Tony Abbott Calls Time-Out on Economy-Wrecking Paris Climate ‘Deal’
There are good deals, there are bad deals and there are disastrous deals. For Australia the Paris Climate ‘deal’ is a monstrous disaster. The realisation that an energy superpower found itself enmeshed in what is - for all intents and purposes - an international suicide pact, has just hit home. The only justification (if it … Continue reading RE Madness Must End Now: Tony Abbott Calls Time-Out on Economy-Wrecking Paris Climate ‘Deal’
Renewable Energy Debacle Deepens: Chaotic & Costly Power Destroying Australian Industry
Australian is set to cross the Rubicon: following the path to Nirvana promised by renewable energy zealots, means inevitable economic and social oblivion. As the country continues pouring billions of dollars into the unreliables - wind and solar - power prices will continue to rocket out of control. And, even if an industrial or … Continue reading Renewable Energy Debacle Deepens: Chaotic & Costly Power Destroying Australian Industry
War For Australian Business & Families Begins: Government Splits Over Renewable Energy Disaster
Subsidised wind and solar sent Australian power prices through the roof punishing households, threatening businesses and whole industries, without respite. The battle of Australia is about to begin. Upon this battle depends the survival of civilisation as we’ve known it. What follows is a battle for this Country’s very economic future and the social … Continue reading War For Australian Business & Families Begins: Government Splits Over Renewable Energy Disaster
No Way Back From RE Disaster: Energy Minister Abandons Australia’s Power Consumers
What passes for political leadership in this country is engaged in a wind and solar-fuelled economic suicide mission. Subsidies to grid wrecking wind and solar (when soft loans, green schemes and taxpayer handouts are added) are pushing $5 billion a year, punishing households and businesses alike. As wind and solar power capacity increases, power prices … Continue reading No Way Back From RE Disaster: Energy Minister Abandons Australia’s Power Consumers
Australia Enters Third World: Chaotic Delivery of Wind & Solar Forces Industrial Users Off Grid
Dictating when and if power consumers get electricity was once the preserve of communist dictatorships (think the USSR, North Korea and Cuba). Thanks to a maniacal obsession with intermittent wind and solar, Australia now sits comfortably in the same dismal ranks. No longer can industrial users expect to have power according to their business plans … Continue reading Australia Enters Third World: Chaotic Delivery of Wind & Solar Forces Industrial Users Off Grid
If Wind and Sunshine are Free, Why Is It That Wind & Solar Power Are So Expensive?
Facts tend to flummox renewable energy zealots, especially the way adding wind and solar sends power prices into orbit (see above). After all, they keep telling us that the wind and sun are absolutely free, and getting cheaper all the time. Here’s America’s top green, Michael Shellenberger taking an axe to another RE furphy. A … Continue reading If Wind and Sunshine are Free, Why Is It That Wind & Solar Power Are So Expensive?
Wind Power Output Collapses Send Power Prices into Orbit: The World’s Biggest Joke Just Got Serious
Intermittent wind and solar are a natural guarantee of grid chaos and rocketing power prices. The debacle that started in the renewable energy ‘superpower’, also known as South Australia has broken the border and is spreading fast. New South Wales is now being treated to a lesson on how increasing reliance on the ‘unreliables’ inevitably … Continue reading Wind Power Output Collapses Send Power Prices into Orbit: The World’s Biggest Joke Just Got Serious
Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Crisis: 200,000 Families Can’t Afford Power
Relying on subsidised, intermittent and unreliable wind and solar results in rocketing power prices. Rocketing power prices results in a cycle of grinding, daily misery for the poorest and most vulnerable. More than 100,000 Australian families had their power cut off last year, and a further 100,000 are on payment plans with their power retailers … Continue reading Australia’s Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Crisis: 200,000 Families Can’t Afford Power
RE Reality Check: PM’s $10bn Pumped Hydro Plan to Save Wind Industry Doesn’t Hold Water
Wind and large-scale solar are doomed, but the saviour is said to be pumped hydro; paid for, of course, with other people’s money. Touted by Turnbull and his hapless sidekick, Josh Frydenberg as the Nation’s mega-battery, the heavily-hyped Snowy 2.0 pumped hydro scheme (shelved in the 1970s because it was uneconomic then) has been … Continue reading RE Reality Check: PM’s $10bn Pumped Hydro Plan to Save Wind Industry Doesn’t Hold Water
