Thorium Reactors Promise Even Cleaner & Safer Nuclear-Powered Future

Adults are talking about nuclear power as if it were a long lost relative. Having wrecked reliable power supplies with subsidies for chaotically delivered wind and solar, any country worth being part of has put nuclear power generation back at the forefront of its energy future. The French are pouring €millions into research and development … Continue reading Thorium Reactors Promise Even Cleaner & Safer Nuclear-Powered Future

Nuclear Necessity: Europeans Driving Nuclear Power’s Inevitable Renaissance

When Vlad Putin put the squeeze on Europe’s gas supplies, Europeans embraced nuclear power out of urgent necessity. The grand wind and solar ‘transition’ were revealed as nothing but the greatest economic and environmental fraud, of all time. Incapable of delivering electricity as and when households and businesses need it, wind and solar run a … Continue reading Nuclear Necessity: Europeans Driving Nuclear Power’s Inevitable Renaissance

French Method: China & Japan Follow French Lead On Nuclear Power Generation Renaissance

Nuclear power generation is back with a vengeance for two reasons: the evident nonsense of relying upon sunshine and breezes for reliable power; and the political desire to reduce carbon oxide gas emissions. True it is that even Germany’s Greens have dropped their CO2 emission reduction ambitions, but here in Australia the suicidal desire to … Continue reading French Method: China & Japan Follow French Lead On Nuclear Power Generation Renaissance

Growth Engines: Coal and Nuclear Powering China’s Economic Rise & Global Ambitions

No country ever got rich without abundant supplies of affordable energy. It’s all very well for the well-fed, smug and pompous to lecture others about the virtues of wind and solar. But when you’re dragging hundreds of millions out of agrarian poverty, virtue signalling runs a very poor second. And, so it is, with China. … Continue reading Growth Engines: Coal and Nuclear Powering China’s Economic Rise & Global Ambitions

Getting Serious About Serious Power Generation: China Leads Global Nuclear Power Push

Any student of economics wondering how important reliable and affordable electricity is to economic growth and industrialisation, need only look at China. The CCP may not be the flavour of the month at the moment, but its role in China’s economic success can’t be dismissed so readily. In less than 25 years, China has dragged … Continue reading Getting Serious About Serious Power Generation: China Leads Global Nuclear Power Push

Massive Push For Coal & Nuclear Power Proves China’s Wind Power Investment All For Show

Inscrutable as ever, the Chinese pay plenty of lip service to unreliable wind and solar, but it’s coal and nuclear that are really powering the Middle Kingdom. China’s investment in new coal and nuclear power plants absolutely dwarfs spending on intermittent wind and solar. Indeed, as Dr John Constable details below, the pace of investment … Continue reading Massive Push For Coal & Nuclear Power Proves China’s Wind Power Investment All For Show
