South Australia Powerless (Again): Sudden 1,000MW Wind Power Output Collapse Leaves 90,000 Families Boiling in the Dark

Why the ‘Transition’ to Wind & Solar is Nothing More than a Cruel Marketing Myth
*** The propaganda wings of the wind and solar industry have a lot to answer for, not least repeated and violent abuses of the English language. We are repeatedly beguiled by tales about our 'transition' to an all renewable future; and about how wind power is 'free' and getting cheaper all the time. However, the … Continue reading Why the ‘Transition’ to Wind & Solar is Nothing More than a Cruel Marketing Myth
Memo to Malcolm: Scrap Australia’s Renewable Energy Target & Collect a Free Political Gift
Malcolm Turnbull is a Prime Minister who has attempted to please everyone and thereby proved the adage that by doing so you end up pleasing no one at all.

Wind Power Subsidies Become Turnbull’s Worst Political Nightmare: Australia’s RET Must Go Now
*** At the risk of sounding like a broken record - or for the younger generation a stuttering CD or a corrupted MP3 file - STT has said it before and will keep saying it: any policy which is unsustainable will fail, crushed by its own imponderable weight or ignominiously scrapped by those who created … Continue reading Wind Power Subsidies Become Turnbull’s Worst Political Nightmare: Australia’s RET Must Go Now
Turnbull Turns: Australia’s Federal Government Backs HELE Coal-Fired Power Plants

Wind Power Wilts: Brewing Voter Fury Means Coal-Power Set to Drive Australia’s Fossil Fuelled Renaissance
*** In 2016 no two words struck more fear into the hearts of the city-bound, political elite than ‘Trump’ and ‘Brexit’. In both instances, ignorance amongst the media and political class meant that - for them - what were predictable, if not inevitable, results came as visceral, gut-wrenching, bewildering shocks. If there is a single … Continue reading Wind Power Wilts: Brewing Voter Fury Means Coal-Power Set to Drive Australia’s Fossil Fuelled Renaissance
Australia’s Energy Debacle: Politicians Fiddle While Rome Burns
*** Alan Moran needs no intro to STT followers. Here he gives the morally bankrupt idiots that pretend to govern us a well-deserved spray, over the energy debacle that has turned Australia - once an energy power house - into an international joke. Trump and Australian political dithering over energy costs Catallaxy Files Alan Moran … Continue reading Australia’s Energy Debacle: Politicians Fiddle While Rome Burns
Australia’s Energy Debacle Unplugged: Liberal Senator Chris Back Slams Wind Power
There are very few Australian politicians who have bothered to do the slightest bit of homework on Australia's energy policy, and even fewer still have taken the time to understand how Australia's ridiculous renewable energy targets have destroyed once reliable grids and driven power prices through the roof. One who has managed to get to … Continue reading Australia’s Energy Debacle Unplugged: Liberal Senator Chris Back Slams Wind Power
Australia’s Renewable Target in Tatters: Major Retailers Shun Wind & Solar, Electing to Pay $Millions in Retail Power Fines Instead
*** In the week just gone, yet another of STT’s predictions unfolded, with devastating consequences for Australia’s Large-Scale RET and the remnants of a battered and beleaguered wind industry. The LRET was slashed in 2015 simply to avoid the political embarrassment of having too little eligible renewable power dispatched to satisfy the 41,000 GWh target … Continue reading Australia’s Renewable Target in Tatters: Major Retailers Shun Wind & Solar, Electing to Pay $Millions in Retail Power Fines Instead
