Texas is littered with solar panels and wind turbines, but don’t expect them to deliver power as and when you need it.

The results are difficult … Continue reading Deliberately Trashed: Why Biden’s Subsidised Wind & Solar Push Is Destroying America

Mass blackouts and power rationing are now the norm, thanks to an obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar, in both cases. Back in February, it was a big freeze that froze turbines and plastered solar panels with blankets … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Powered’ Texans & Californians Face More Forced Power Rationing
