When the challenge is thrown at wind power proponents about its hopeless intermittency, like a drug addict, the answer is always “more”. More of the same, more turbines, more panels, more subsidies, more transmission network capacity, more non-existent mega batteries, well, just more. Germany is held up as the shining example of what our … Continue reading Hopelessly Helpless: German Wind Power Fails 93.3% Of The Time & Collapses in Minutes

Even Mother Nature Hates Wind Power: Lightning Strike Destroys Turbine in Ireland
For a machine that’s said to lovingly harvest free-as-a-bird wind energy, the industrial wind turbine sure takes a beating from the weather. When Hurricane Maria visited Puerto Rico last year, she managed to splatter wind turbine blades all over the island, leaving residents completely powerless: Weather Dependent Wind Power: Leaves Hurricane Victims Powerless A typhoon … Continue reading Even Mother Nature Hates Wind Power: Lightning Strike Destroys Turbine in Ireland
Thinking About Welcoming Wind Turbines in your Community? Well, Think Again – An Avoidable Nightmare Awaits
Communities that were gullible and naïve enough to welcome wind turbines inevitably end up regretting being played for dupes. And it’s a regret that lasts a lifetime. Promises of money for jam; being led to believe that everyone involved is about to save the planet from imminent incineration; and being told these things are quieter … Continue reading Thinking About Welcoming Wind Turbines in your Community?

Counting the Cost of Subsidised Wind Power: Some Basic Facts
The generation that have come to worship wind and solar power operate in a fact and consequence free zone, where logic and reason were bound and gagged from the beginning. Their finest trait is their ability to shift the narrative, when troublesome facts - like blackouts caused by wind power output collapses and rocketing power … Continue reading Counting the Cost of Subsidised Wind Power: Some Basic Facts
Why Wind Power is the Greatest Economic & Environmental Fraud in History
When called upon the think of certainties, gravity springs to mind (at least on earth). Although, for the wind industry it does tend to deliver harsh results - see above, yet another fatal collapse, this time in Lincoln, Nebraska. Another certainty, is that once people tackle the facts, they turn against wind power with a … Continue reading Why Wind Power is the Greatest Economic & Environmental Fraud in History
The Fantasy of Running On Sunshine & Breezes: Why Wind & Solar Power Are So Utterly Pointless
After a generation of claiming to be not only competitive with, but cheaper than, every form of conventional generation there is, wind and large-scale solar generators are still unable to wean themselves off the massive stream of subsidies that created their so-called ‘industries’ - simply because, without those subsidies - coupled with mandated targets … Continue reading The Fantasy of Running On Sunshine & Breezes: Why Wind & Solar Power Are So Utterly Pointless
The Patent Nonsense of ‘Storing’ Wind Power Smashed
**** The wind industry is the perpetual infant of power generation: always looking for the subsidies to last that little bit longer; always promising to improve its performance; always claiming it will outdo hydro, coal and gas – provided, of course, that the subsidies keep flowing. STT for one thinks the wind industry has had … Continue reading The Patent Nonsense of ‘Storing’ Wind Power Smashed
