The anything inevitable about the so-called wind and solar transition is that people inevitably conclude the whole thing is an environmental and economic fraud. There’s nothing ‘clean’, ‘green’ or even vaguely ‘renewable’ about solar panels and wind turbines. Which are utterly pointless, because they can’t deliver power as and when we need it. Solar panel … Continue reading Dumping The ‘Clean’ Energy Mess Right In Your Backyard

Sinking Solar: Sun Sets On Great Subsidised Solar Panel Scam
A decade back, householders with solar panels were the smuggest cats around. These days, not so much. In the beginning, they crowed about the (ludicrously generous) returns from the Government underwritten Feed In Tariffs (FIT) they received for power sent back to the grid (which in many Australian states often topped $0.50 per KWh, the … Continue reading Sinking Solar: Sun Sets On Great Subsidised Solar Panel Scam
Only Thing That’s ‘Renewable’ About Wind & Solar: Massive & Endless Subsidies
The millions of solar panels and hundreds of thousands of turbine blades already ground up in landfills means there’s absolutely nothing ‘renewable’ about wind or solar. The term ‘renewable’ is just another monstrous abuse of the English language perpetrated by a cult that would have us believe the unbelievable by ignoring the bleeding obvious: weather-dependent … Continue reading Only Thing That’s ‘Renewable’ About Wind & Solar: Massive & Endless Subsidies
High Winds & Hailstones Destroy Solar Panels/Hot Weather Destroys Their Output
Solar panels are not the most robust of power generation sources. A blanket of snow and ice readily kills their occasional, sunshine-dependent output. They tend not to appreciate gale-force winds (see above) and hailstones of any substance are usually fatal (see below). A few weeks ago, STT reported on a burst of hot weather in … Continue reading High Winds & Hailstones Destroy Solar Panels/Hot Weather Destroys Their Output
200 Million Tonnes of Toxic Solar Panels Destined For Landfills Near You
So-called 'green' energy is struggling with a monumental image problem: the toxic waste being dumped in landfills around the world. Millions of solar panels have already reached their use-by dates; they can’t be recycled, which means they’re destined for the local dump - in mind-boggling quantities. Then there's the threat to health that concentrated dumping … Continue reading 200 Million Tonnes of Toxic Solar Panels Destined For Landfills Near You
‘Green’ Energy Obsession Loses Its Glitter: Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam Unmasked
Every good cult needs a mantra. For the anti-progress crowd, it’s the line that ‘green’ is good. However, in the way that Humpty Dumpy could make words mean anything he chose them to mean, ‘green’ has taken on a meaning all of its own. The same goes for the nonsense tag ‘renewable’; there’s nothing renewable … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Obsession Loses Its Glitter: Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam Unmasked
Blade-Runners: Wind Industry Illegally Dumping Discarded Turbine Blades Across America
Hundreds of thousands of wind turbine blades have already found their way into landfill, with millions more to follow. Bear in mind the wind industry has been with us for barely 20 years and most of the increase in (occasional) generating capacity has occurred in the last decade. And yet, thousands of blades are being … Continue reading Blade-Runners: Wind Industry Illegally Dumping Discarded Turbine Blades Across America
Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Mountains of Toxic Rubbish Dumped in Local Landfills
The millions of solar panels headed for landfill are a veritable toxic cocktail of gallium arsenide, tellurium, silver, crystalline silicon, lead, cadmium, and heavy earth material. Then there’s the landfill legacy being created by wind turbine blades, with the First World cynically using the Third World as its dumping ground: ‘Green’ Energy’s Poisonous Legacy: Millions of Toxic Turbine … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Mountains of Toxic Rubbish Dumped in Local Landfills
Toxic Heavy Metal Cocktail: What’s Really Inside Solar Panels
The RE acolyte is all care and no responsibility, which helps to explain his obsession with solar power. With millions of solar panels already at the end of their useful lives and off to be crushed and dumped in local landfills, it’s probably a good time to find out precisely what’s inside them. For the … Continue reading Toxic Heavy Metal Cocktail: What’s Really Inside Solar Panels
Why Everything You’ve Heard About Solar Is Wrong: What the Media Don’t Want You to Know
The mainstream press would have you believe that we’re already being exclusively powered by wind and solar, and that neither of them have any downside, at all. Michael Shellenberger knows otherwise. Michael, with his properly reasoned support for nuclear power, draws plenty of heat from the pro-unreliables hacks in the MSM for his equally reasoned … Continue reading Why Everything You’ve Heard About Solar Is Wrong: What the Media Don’t Want You to Know
