Claims that wind and solar are cheap, simply don’t add up. Glaring examples such as Germany, Denmark and South Australia tell the tale. Like night follows day, add heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar to your grid, and power prices are bound to spiral out of control. For RE zealots it’s one of … Continue reading Counting the Cost: Wind & Solar Obsession Means Californian Power Prices 50% Higher Than US Average

Busted Bugs: German Wind Turbines Demolishing 1,200 Tonnes of Insects Each Year
Giant industrial wind turbines represent an existential threat to birds, bats, bees and a veritable host of other insect species. For just about anything on the wing, their 50-60m blades represent the end of the line. And the carnage is measured in the thousands of tonnes. A few weeks back we covered some German research … Continue reading Busted Bugs: German Wind Turbines Demolishing 1,200 Tonnes of Insects Each Year
Supreme Ignorance: Bernie Sanders Mocks Wind Turbine Noise Victims’ Daily Suffering
Trying to explain life with wind turbine noise to the uninitiated is like trying to explain a migraine to someone that’s never had a headache. Presidential hopeful, Bernie Sanders is yet another loony from the left with his own worldview on what is, for those forced to suffer it, a very real form of … Continue reading Supreme Ignorance: Bernie Sanders Mocks Wind Turbine Noise Victims’ Daily Suffering
Swedish Shutdown: Shift from Ever-Reliable Nuclear to Never-Reliable Wind Leaves Swedes Scrambling for Power
Attempting to replace always-on nuclear with weather-dependent wind power was always going to end in tears. Sweden - renowned for cheerful pop groups like Abba, Vogue-ish furniture and meatballs - has been hijacked by maniacs who’ve resolved to wind down its enviable nuclear power generation capacity, claiming it can be readily replaced with the chaotic … Continue reading Swedish Shutdown: Shift from Ever-Reliable Nuclear to Never-Reliable Wind Leaves Swedes Scrambling for Power
Why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s ‘New Green Deal’ is a New Dark Ages Nightmare
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the Green-left’s favourite flibbertigibbet. Her New Green Deal, with its promise of 100% wind and solar delivering power for all, for free and for all time, should have been dismissed as fairytale nonsense, long ago. However, there are plenty of pixie dream girls and boys happy to suck it up, like there’s … Continue reading Why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s ‘New Green Deal’ is a New Dark Ages Nightmare
Blown Away: Australians Reject Labor’s 50% RET & Plans for Giant Wind & Solar Roll-out
Bill Shorten’ 45% CO2 emissions reduction target and his 50% Renewable Energy Target was meant to deliver a Labor landslide. It didn’t. Bill Shorten and his acolytes believed that Australian voters would flock to his grand - ‘save the planet’ - plans for sunshine and breezes. Their propaganda wing, GetUp! made it seem like … Continue reading Blown Away: Australians Reject Labor’s 50% RET & Plans for Giant Wind & Solar Roll-out
Dancin’ With the Devil: 100% Wind & Solar Targets = Guaranteed Economic & Social Catastrophe
Delusional and dangerous, sums up those peddling 100% wind and solar targets. No country on earth has ever powered itself entirely using sunshine and breezes. And no country ever will. Sunset and calm weather are real things. On the other hand, mega-batteries are a mixture of myth and nonsense. At the margins, technically possible. But, … Continue reading Dancin’ With the Devil: 100% Wind & Solar Targets = Guaranteed Economic & Social Catastrophe
Shorten’s Green/Labor Alliance: The Electricity ‘Bill’ Australia Simply Cannot Afford
Voters ought to think twice before installing a Green/Labor Alliance unless their objective is to destroy Australia’s prosperity, for good. The modern Labor Party, led by Bill ‘Shifty’ Shorten, is almost unrecognisable from its roots as a party born on the back of a sheep-shearer’s strike in Queensland in the 1890s. These days, it … Continue reading Shorten’s Green/Labor Alliance: The Electricity ‘Bill’ Australia Simply Cannot Afford
‘Clean’ Energy Kaput: Germany’s ‘Inevitable’ Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ An Inevitable & Total Failure
Germany is the world leader when it comes to wind and solar and worth following, if you’re keen to return to the Dark Ages. Germans suffer Europe’s highest power prices - right up there with wind ‘powered’ Denmark and just behind South Australia, Australia’s wind and solar capital - which tops the list. Its so-called … Continue reading ‘Clean’ Energy Kaput: Germany’s ‘Inevitable’ Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ An Inevitable & Total Failure
Renewables Retribution: Spiralling Power Prices Punish Poorest & Most Vulnerable
The relationship between rocketing power prices and intermittent wind and solar is pretty obvious. Just ask a South Australian, German or Dane. The USA is a relative Johnny come lately to the RE obsession bandwagon. There are a couple of obvious exceptions, namely Texas and California. But among the other 50 states, the wind and … Continue reading Renewables Retribution: Spiralling Power Prices Punish Poorest & Most Vulnerable
