Propagandists pushing the wind and solar transition are struggling to explain away the crushing power bills that inevitably follow. Every state or country (without exception) that is attempting to run on sunshine and breezes suffers rocketing retail power bills. Wind powered Denmark and wind and solar powered Germany suffer Europe’s highest power prices, by a … Continue reading Grand Wind & Solar Transition Delivers Crushing Retail Power Bills

Crushed: Biggest Wind & Solar State Suffers Astronomical Power Prices
Germany and Denmark suffer Europe’s highest power prices, thanks to their subsidised wind and solar obsession. Likewise, South Australians are being belted by retail power prices that are (dollar for dollar) the highest in the world. As night follows day, any attempt to run on sunshine and breezes leads to out of this world power … Continue reading Crushed: Biggest Wind & Solar State Suffers Astronomical Power Prices
Lunacy Unplugged: Renewable Energy Debacle Proves Clowns Are Clearly In Charge
When disaster threatens the rational retreat, but the clown soldiers on and even doubles down, accelerating the race to oblivion. Facts are treated with contempt; reality with derision. So it is with the grand wind and solar transition. It’s a disease of the mind that allows for the belief that a first world economy can … Continue reading Lunacy Unplugged: Renewable Energy Debacle Proves Clowns Are Clearly In Charge
Australia’s Self-Inflicted Wind & Solar Calamity Demands Permanent Nuclear Power Solution
The fastest way to get people thinking about where their power comes from is to deprive them of it. A lengthy evening blackout will do it, every time. Australia’s Eastern Grid (that connects Queensland, New South Wales, the ACT, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia) is a veritable house of cards - a coal-fired power plant … Continue reading Australia’s Self-Inflicted Wind & Solar Calamity Demands Permanent Nuclear Power Solution
Renewables Repeat: Weather Event Wipes Out Australia’s Wind & Solar Capital (Once Again)
South Australia’s infamous Statewide blackout on 28 September 2016 was caused by wind turbines that couldn’t handle a vigorous spring storm front. Wind speeds exceeded 25m/s (90km/h), which meant turbines at the bulk of its (then 18) wind farms shut down automatically to protect themselves from catastrophic self-destruction. Metropolitan Adelaide was without power for hours, … Continue reading Renewables Repeat: Weather Event Wipes Out Australia’s Wind & Solar Capital (Once Again)
Blackout Nation: Australians Latest Victims of Subsidised Wind & Solar Chaos
That Australia’s Eastern Grid is on the brink of collapse with a complete ‘system black’ on the cards comes as no surprise. The $7 billion in annual RET subsidies pocketed by wind and solar generators were designed to allow them to underbid Australia’s reliable and affordable coal-fired generators, destroying their profitability and, ultimately, driving them … Continue reading Blackout Nation: Australians Latest Victims of Subsidised Wind & Solar Chaos
How to Waste Mountains of Energy: Turn Wind & Solar Power Into Hydrogen Gas & Burn the Gas
The belief that wind and solar will soon power us is delusional, turning those intermittent sources into hydrogen gas is positively insane, on every level. Renewable energy rent seekers have seized on the concept of producing hydrogen gas using wind and solar as a way of converting useless, unpredictable and unreliable electricity into something that … Continue reading How to Waste Mountains of Energy: Turn Wind & Solar Power Into Hydrogen Gas & Burn the Gas
Keep It Simple Stupid: Why No Country Will Ever Be Powered By Wind & Solar Power Alone
Australia’s blackout capital, South Australia is what happens when hubris and ideology trumps sound engineering. After a run of mass blackouts, load shedding and a complete statewide blackout in September 2016, South Australia (Australia’s wind and solar capital) was forced to spend a fortune on diesel powered jet engines, open cycle gas turbines and, later, … Continue reading Keep It Simple Stupid: Why No Country Will Ever Be Powered By Wind & Solar Power Alone
JobSeeker: Australia’s Economic Recovery Demands End to Subsidies For Unreliable Wind & Solar
Putting a million Australians back to work requires a complete overhaul of Australia’s suicidal energy policies. The Federal and State government dictated coronavirus lockdowns have delivered Australia’s first recession in over 30 years; unemployment rates - already climbing - are set to skyrocket when the JobKeeper employment subsidy to businesses runs out in September; close … Continue reading JobSeeker: Australia’s Economic Recovery Demands End to Subsidies For Unreliable Wind & Solar
Life Support: Government’s Obsession With Subsidised Wind & Solar Destroyed South Australia’s Economy
South Australia has more wind and solar capacity per capita than any other place on the planet. It also suffers the world’s highest retail power prices and has been the butt of international jokes thanks to a run of mass blackouts, including one that plunged parts of the state into Stone Age darkness for more … Continue reading Life Support: Government’s Obsession With Subsidised Wind & Solar Destroyed South Australia’s Economy
