Australians once enjoyed affordable power, reliably delivered: the chaotic delivery of wind and solar changed all that. Australian power prices have rocketed out-of-control: its wind and solar power capital, South Australia pays the highest electricity prices, in the world. Mass power cuts (aka load shedding and demand management) and mass blackouts are the new normal. … Continue reading Australia’s Obsession With Hopelessly Intermittent Wind & Solar Wrecking Entire Power Grid

Wind & Solar Chaos Leaves Europe’s Power Grid On Brink of Total Collapse
Germany led the way, and others soon followed: erratically delivered wind and solar now dominates Europe’s power grid. Naturally enough, power prices have rocketed and grid managers are left to deal with the chaos delivered by sunset and/or calm weather. Rapid surges and/or collapses in voltage and frequency - consequent upon surges and collapses in … Continue reading Wind & Solar Chaos Leaves Europe’s Power Grid On Brink of Total Collapse
Renewable Storage Myth Busted: Elon Musk’s Great Battery Conjob Exposed
We're now told the solution to the chaos delivered by wind and solar is giant lithium-ion batteries, of the kind peddled by Elon Musk. The reefer-smoking, Californian carpetbagger managed to offload one unit in wind power obsessed, South Australia, collected $150 million, and was never seen again. Here's Liberal MP, Craig Kelly explaining just how … Continue reading Renewable Storage Myth Busted: Elon Musk’s Great Battery Conjob Exposed
Renewable Energy ‘Transition’: More Wind Power, Higher Prices, More Blackouts
The chaos that comes with intermittent wind and solar get serious in summer, when demand surges, the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. This summer, the barbecue stopper will literally be another round of what’s euphemistically called “demand management”: Soviet era power rationing, an integral part of Australia’s ludicrous attempt to run on sunshine … Continue reading Renewable Energy ‘Transition’: More Wind Power, Higher Prices, More Blackouts
Volt Wars: Why Your Neighbour’s Solar Panels Are Cooking Your Computer & Blowing Your Lightglobes, Etc
Electricity generation started off as an extension of science. These days, it’s all about vanity and virtue signalling. Not least those millions of shiny solar panels, which we’ve all helped subsidise - to allow our neighbours to bask in their own virtuous glow. At the theoretical level - when the sun is up and the … Continue reading Volt Wars: Why Your Neighbour’s Solar Panels Are Cooking Your Computer & Blowing Your Lightglobes, Etc
Blackouts Beckon: Calm Weather & Sunset Deliver Chaos in Renewables Obsessed Australia
In renewables obsessed Australia these days, whenever the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in, the talk inevitably turns to blackouts. Last summer, load shedding caught power consumers short in South Australia, Victoria and NSW. Energy hungry businesses such as aluminium smelters and even hospitals were forced to power down during a run of scorching … Continue reading Blackouts Beckon: Calm Weather & Sunset Deliver Chaos in Renewables Obsessed Australia
Summer Holiday-Hell: Power Consumers Face Staggering Bill Whenever Wind Power Goes AWOL
When RE zealots talk about the ‘transition’ to wind and solar, they never specify when. They say it’s ‘inevitable’, but always kick the can down the road when pressed about precisely when we’ll all be powered by nothing but sunshine and breezes. Perhaps it’s got something to do with sunset? Or maybe even the weather? … Continue reading Summer Holiday-Hell: Power Consumers Face Staggering Bill Whenever Wind Power Goes AWOL
Dark Ages Deliverance: Australia’s Energy Minister Contracts Coal-Fired Power to Avoid More Mass Blackouts
Intermittent wind and solar guarantee power supply chaos and are a recipe for mass load shedding and blackouts: ask South Australians. While the Federal Energy Minister, Angus Taylor’s public focus has been on reducing power prices, in reality his ‘mission-critical’ is ensuring that there is enough reliable electricity generating capacity in the system to prevent … Continue reading Dark Ages Deliverance: Australia’s Energy Minister Contracts Coal-Fired Power to Avoid More Mass Blackouts
Breakout the Candles: Chaotic Wind & Solar Mean More Mass Summertime Blackouts
The chaotic delivery of wind and solar has left Australia’s Eastern Grid on the brink of collapse. The Eastern Grid connects Queensland, New South Wales, the ACT, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia. Reliable coal-fired generators have been knocked out of the game, made uneconomic thanks to renewable energy policies that direct more than $3 billion a … Continue reading Breakout the Candles: Chaotic Wind & Solar Mean More Mass Summertime Blackouts
India Rumbles Wind Power as Fake Electricity: Output Collapses During Dead-Calm Monsoon
It never takes them long to work out that wind power is the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time. Eco-zealots have attempted to ram wind and solar power down the throats of Third World governments under the auspices of saving the planet and purportedly with the purpose of dragging millions out of … Continue reading India Rumbles Wind Power as Fake Electricity: Output Collapses During Dead-Calm Monsoon
