The wind and solar debacles playing out in the US, UK and Germany have finally brought reality to bear and exposed the renewable energy ideologues as outright frauds. And, from our perspective, about time, too. The acolytes chanting about our ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future are like the overly optimistic … Continue reading Let’s Get Serious: Unreliable Wind & Solar No Way to Power Any Serious Economic Power
