Thanks to their chaotic intermittency, any increase in wind and solar capacity brings with it their capacity to bring down whole power grids. In Australia, the only thing preventing a total system black are its remaining coal-fired power plants. The very plants that the massive subsidies, punitive mandates and ludicrous wind and solar targets are … Continue reading Life Support: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Keeping the Lights On

Truth in Numbers: Cheap ‘Renewables’ Claim Smashed by Crushing Power Bills
Subsidised wind and solar are the principal reason for rocketing power prices, and rocketing power prices are the principal reason for rocketing inflation. Branded as “cost of living pressures” the rapid doubling and tripling of retail power costs are always and everywhere about the market destruction caused by massive subsidies to intermittent and unreliable wind … Continue reading Truth in Numbers: Cheap ‘Renewables’ Claim Smashed by Crushing Power Bills
Totally Wrecked: Australia’s Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Astronomical Power Prices
The massive subsidies to intermittent wind and solar were deliberately designed to wreck coal-fired power generation - the cheapest and most reliable source of all - and that objective is well advanced in Australia. With the forced exit of another coal-fired generator the effect of a calm night (when the combined output of wind and … Continue reading Totally Wrecked: Australia’s Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Astronomical Power Prices
Retail Power Prices Reveal True & Crushing Costs of Subsidised Wind & Solar
20 years of subsidised wind and solar has caused retail power prices to double or even triple over that period. Attempting to duplicate a perfectly working power generation and distribution system with one that ‘works’, at best, 30% of the time (on average) and never works on calm nights - was always going to end … Continue reading Retail Power Prices Reveal True & Crushing Costs of Subsidised Wind & Solar
Let’s Get Serious: Ever-Reliable Nuclear Crushes Hopelessly Intermittent Wind and Solar
Claiming wind and solar betters nuclear power for price and reliability is like turning up to a machine-gun fight with a butter knife. The delusional and courageous are getting slaughtered at every turn. After all, this is an existential fight for the carpet bagging, crony capitalists - who have done so very well out of … Continue reading Let’s Get Serious: Ever-Reliable Nuclear Crushes Hopelessly Intermittent Wind and Solar
Propaganda Flip: Renewables Cult Claim They Never Said Wind & Solar Would Be Cheap
The wind and solar industries are struggling to win the hearts and minds of householders and businesses being belted by skyrocketing power prices. Built on lies and run on subsidies, it comes as no surprise that the truth about heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar would eventually work its way to the surface. … Continue reading Propaganda Flip: Renewables Cult Claim They Never Said Wind & Solar Would Be Cheap
Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices
As night follows day, adding more wind and solar capacity inevitably results in rocketing power prices. The hard numbers say it all. China enjoys the world’s lowest power prices, thanks to cheap, abundant and reliable coal-fired power. Adding to their advantage, China is building dozens of new coal-fired and nuclear powered plants. It’s almost as … Continue reading Countries With Most Wind & Solar Generation Suffer World’s Highest Power Prices
Tap Into Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar: Get Ready For Punishing Power Bills
Being pounded with 20% increases in power bills, year after year, is all part of the grand wind and solar transition. Every single country that’s tapped into subsidised wind and solar has seen retail power prices rocket - no exceptions. It’s one case where whatever goes up, never comes down. The promise of cheap electricity … Continue reading Tap Into Weather-Dependent Wind & Solar: Get Ready For Punishing Power Bills
Why Adding More Wind & Solar Always Means Higher Power Prices For Everyone
Finding the numbers that establish the true and insane cost of subsidised wind and solar is like a game of hide and seek. Buried in a sea of complexity and industry mumbo-jumbo, the way power prices are set is part myth and part mystery. Myth and mystery that allows wind and solar rent-seekers to only … Continue reading Why Adding More Wind & Solar Always Means Higher Power Prices For Everyone
Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Always Deliver Punishing Power Prices
Every country that’s ‘transitioning’ to wind and solar is suffering rocketing retail power prices. No ifs. No buts. No exceptions. Australia is a sufficient example, given the delusional obsession with weather and sunshine-dependent occasional power in the land Downunder. Since July this year, Australian families and businesses have been reeling from 20-30% increases in their … Continue reading Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Always Deliver Punishing Power Prices
