Hot weather in Australia leads to a spike in demand, as householders and businesses crank up their air conditioners; it also coincides … Continue reading Dumb & Dumber: Wind Power Output Collapse Leaves South Australians & Victorians $400m Poorer

No amount of statistical finessing from the wind and solar industries can budge their presently risible contributions to Australia’s power needs above more … Continue reading Australia’s Rocketing Prices & Looming Summer Blackouts Ensure Coal-Fired Power has a Long Way to Run
