Routine power rationing (aka ‘demand management’) and statewide blackouts are the natural consequence of attempting to run on sunshine and breezes. There is not a single example, anywhere in the world, of a country or state that runs exclusively on wind and solar. Those pretending to do so are now smacking headlong into a reality … Continue reading Brace For Blackouts: Wind & Solar Transition Promise Dimly Lit Misery

Powerless: Wind & Solar Transition Leaves 500,000 Boiling In The Dark
Having trashed the cheapest and most reliable power supply in the world, the Australian (failed) State of Victoria simply can’t keep the lights on. Hundreds of thousands of families were left boiling in the dark last week, and it took days to restore power across the People’s Republic. Melbourne Airport was left without power for … Continue reading Powerless: Wind & Solar Transition Leaves 500,000 Boiling In The Dark
Power Supply Crunch: Mass Blackouts Guaranteed When Demand Spikes Coincide With Wind & Solar Collapses
Pin your power needs to the weather and expect results to vary. Last summer saw mass load shedding and blackouts across Victoria, South Australia and NSW when spikes in demand combined with collapses in wind and solar output. Demand patterns are as predictable as the delivery in wind and solar are chaotic. That chaos … Continue reading Power Supply Crunch: Mass Blackouts Guaranteed When Demand Spikes Coincide With Wind & Solar Collapses
Short Circuit: Victoria’s Renewable Energy Calamity Guarantees Blackouts & Rocketing Prices
South Australia’s wind and solar experiment provides the perfect example of how to wreck a power system and an economy with one blow. Not to be outdone, neighbouring Victoria drank the Kool Aid, too - pushing its very own 50% Renewable Energy Target, with a headlong rush into wind and large-scale solar. The lunatics that … Continue reading Short Circuit: Victoria’s Renewable Energy Calamity Guarantees Blackouts & Rocketing Prices
