Pretty soon, the notion of having affordable power available on demand will be ancient history. Never before in the course of human existence have so few done so much damage to so many. Electricity prices are spiralling out of control in any place attempting to run on sunshine and breezes, power rationing (aka ‘demand management’) … Continue reading Wind & Solar Wipeout: Reliable & Affordable Power Now Part of Ancient History

Ingrained Insanity: Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Disaster Leaves Australians Powerless
Australia is yet another perfect example of how to trash a power supply with heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar.

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.
