Malice as a ‘Virtue’: Cost of Subsidised Renewables Power Means the Poorest Go Hungry
Worshipping windmills and posing prostrate before panels is a fast track towards being regarded by one’s peers as the King or Queen of the Virtue Signallers. Moral posturing begins with an appropriately preened identity, which can be paraded in front of all, provided that it’s PC perfect. Hence, the use of a motley bearded, hipster … Continue reading Malice as a ‘Virtue’: Cost of Subsidised Renewables Power Means the Poorest Go Hungry

FAIL: PM’s Power Market ‘Game Changer’ Still Wedded in Delusion
Malcolm Turnbull’s attempt to save Australia’s electricity grid from imminent collapse has been tagged the National Energy Guarantee. Whether or not it guarantees that the lights stay on and the economy can keep limping along, is anybody’s guess. However, it is a guarantee of controversy. When the wind industry, its parasites and spruikers finally tumble … Continue reading FAIL: PM’s Power Market ‘Game Changer’ Still Wedded in Delusion
What Subsidised Wind & Solar Power Really Costs: And It’s Simply Staggering
A story that emerged last week involved the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission making a botch of an ‘investigation’ into the causes of Australia’s rocketing power prices. There were plenty of solid efforts correcting the ACCC’s unforced errors, here’s one from Andrew Bolt. No, Journalists are wrong. Green schemes don't add "just" 7% to Power … Continue reading What Subsidised Wind & Solar Power Really Costs: And It’s Simply Staggering
Renewables Debacle Rolls On: Power Politics Always & Everywhere About Power Prices
That a government decides to entertain a moment of self-congratulation - simply because the lights might stay on - would be understandable, if the Country in question was North Korea or Cuba. However, the primary purpose of Malcolm Turnbull’s National Energy Guarantee is just that: allowing the Federal government to claim ‘mission accomplished’, if Australia … Continue reading Renewables Debacle Rolls On: Power Politics Always & Everywhere About Power Prices

Wind Industry Lies About Falling Costs Backfire: MPs Demand End to Subsidies for Wind Power
The moral of the story of ‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf’ isn’t don’t lie, it’s don’t tell the same lie twice. Renewables rent-seekers continue to stick with the same grab bag of lies, myths and furphies, despite mountains of evidence revealing their marketing pitch is just so much polished propaganda. South Australia (Australia’s so-called ‘wind … Continue reading Wind Industry Lies About Falling Costs Backfire: MPs Demand End to Subsidies for Wind Power
All at Sea – Forget Wind Industry Spin: Offshore Wind Costs are Not Falling, They’re Staggering
Over the last year or so, the Australian wind industry, its parasites and spruikers have pointed to a number of proposals to spear mega-windmills offshore and out in the briny blue, including one monstrous boondoggle pitched for the waters off of the Victorian coast. These pie-in-the-sky plans are accompanied with the usual guff about wind power being … Continue reading All at Sea – Forget Wind Industry Spin: Offshore Wind Costs are Not Falling, They’re Staggering
The Killing Season Begins: Renewable Energy Disaster Puts PM Malcolm Turnbull at Risk
In Canberra, political knives are being quietly sharpened in back rooms and corridors, with one target in mind. Malcolm Turnbull knifed sitting PM, Tony Abbott in September 2015, on the basis that Abbott had lost public support. Whatever Turnbull thought he might have done in power, if that included sorting out Australia’s self-inflicted power pricing and … Continue reading The Killing Season Begins: Renewable Energy Disaster Puts PM Malcolm Turnbull at Risk
