The good folk in New Jersey are just the latest victims of the grand renewable energy ‘transition’. Politicos have backed foreign-owned offshore wind power outfits ahead of local reliable generators and the results are spelt out in black-and-white, with record retail power bills. Retail power prices have doubled in a heartbeat and the socialists in … Continue reading No Joy In New Jersey: Power Bills Double (Again) In Wind Power Obsessed State

Transition to Miserable Poverty: Net Zero Targets Designed So You Live With Nothing
You’ll own nothing and be happy, and you’ll feel pure bliss, freezing or boiling in the dark. Well, that’s what the wind and solar transition mob would have you believe. However, the likelihood of feeling happy or grateful living in a world without reliable and affordable power is pretty low. Electricity is one of those … Continue reading Transition to Miserable Poverty: Net Zero Targets Designed So You Live With Nothing
Facts Trump Feelings: Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Tale Rapidly Unravels
The only certainties attached to the wind and solar transition are being constantly whacked with crushing power bills and sitting freezing or boiling in the dark, when the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. Whereas Europeans are crab-walking away from their mad rush towards wind and solar - with many tapping into next-generation nuclear power … Continue reading Facts Trump Feelings: Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Tale Rapidly Unravels
Rising Tide: True Cost of Net-Zero ‘Transition’ Drives Mounting Public Outrage
Wind and solar rent-seekers are laughing all the way to the bank, with your money. Subsidising wind and solar operators under the mantle of reaching mythical net-zero carbon oxide gas emissions targets comes with a staggering cost: wrecked communities, wrecked environments and wrecked economies. The cult that drives it all, has seriously underestimated the proles’ … Continue reading Rising Tide: True Cost of Net-Zero ‘Transition’ Drives Mounting Public Outrage
Falsehoods & Fictions: Why Models Claiming Wind & Solar Are Cheap Don’t Stack Up
Wind and solar provide cheap electricity, until you start comparing them with every other power source available. The true cost of wind and solar is inextricably linked with the weather (in the case of wind power) and sunshine (in the case of solar power). A healthy snow dump knocks solar out of the competition just … Continue reading Falsehoods & Fictions: Why Models Claiming Wind & Solar Are Cheap Don’t Stack Up
Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)
Claims about an inevitable wind and solar transition show wishful thinking is no match for the laws of physics. Sunset (a daily occurrence, for the uninitiated) and calm weather (also a common and natural phenomenon) are where the physical reality begins; and the much-heralded shift to an all-wind and solar-powered future begins to unravel. Then … Continue reading Physical Reality Means There Will Be No Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ (Not Now/Not Ever)
Total Bunkum: Why Running On 100% Wind & Solar Is 100% Impossible
No country in the world is running on wind and solar power alone; no country ever will. Calm weather and sunset guarantee it. Every routine collapse in wind and solar power output (for the reasons above) requires the total capacity lost in consequence to come from somewhere, and that ‘somewhere’ is going to be a … Continue reading Total Bunkum: Why Running On 100% Wind & Solar Is 100% Impossible
Busting The Big Lie: Vesta’s CEO Admits Wind Power Ain’t Cheap & Never Will Be
As big lies go, the claim that wind power is cheap was a whopper that was bound to come a cropper. What wasn’t expected is that one of the world’s biggest profiteers from the great wind power fraud, Danish turbine maker Vestas would be the one to lift the lid. Now they tell us: Wind … Continue reading Busting The Big Lie: Vesta’s CEO Admits Wind Power Ain’t Cheap & Never Will Be
Chairman Mao Returns: ‘Green’ Energy Cult Delivers Another ‘Great Leap Forward’
The ‘transition’ to wind and solar is delivering punishing power prices to those who can least afford it, and the inevitable power rationing surrounding collapses in wind and solar output is crushing businesses of all shapes and sizes. The zealots behind it couldn’t care less about the vulnerable and impoverished that drift along at the … Continue reading Chairman Mao Returns: ‘Green’ Energy Cult Delivers Another ‘Great Leap Forward’
Power Prices: With Wind & Solar Obsession – The Only Way Is Up and Up and Up
Rocketing power prices is one inevitable consequence of the so-called ‘inevitable’ wind and solar transition. Germans know it, so do Californians, South Australians and Danes. Brits are learning fast, too. Of course, the propaganda units that run cover for renewable energy rent seekers pretend otherwise. Francis Menton wades through their dross to reveal what Europe’s … Continue reading Power Prices: With Wind & Solar Obsession – The Only Way Is Up and Up and Up
