Vlad Putin is being accused by pundits as the only reason why Europe's power prices are spiralling out of control. Not so. Sure, his grip on oil and gas supplies to Europe has put the squeeze on, particularly in Germany, but its so-called wind and solar ‘transition’ - the ‘Energiewende’ - was in serious strife … Continue reading Vladimir Putin Not Responsible For Germany’s Self-Inflicted Wind & Solar Calamity

Germans Brace For Energy Catastrophe: Prices Set to Triple When Nuclear & Coal Plants Close
Germany’s so-called ‘transition’ to wind and solar is an unmitigated disaster: power prices have rocketed and more blackouts loom this winter, whenever the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. Hellbent on self-destruction, the Germans are planning to kill off their last remaining nuclear power plants and are equally determined to axe all of their … Continue reading Germans Brace For Energy Catastrophe: Prices Set to Triple When Nuclear & Coal Plants Close
Energy Transition: Germans Revolt Against Wind Power – As Power Prices Spiral Out of Control
Germany’s wind power transition has hit the wall: rural Germans are sick and tired of the noise, ruined landscapes and communities; and Germans of all persuasions are fed up with Europe’s highest power prices, which continue to rocket as a consequence of its so-called ‘renewable energy transition’ aka the ‘Energiewende’. Thanks to massive subsidies and … Continue reading Energy Transition: Germans Revolt Against Wind Power – As Power Prices Spiral Out of Control
All Time High: Wind & Solar Obsession Triples Power Costs to German Industry & Domestic Prices Highest in Europe
In another ‘proof is in the pudding moment’, wind and solar obsessed Germans are now paying record prices for electricity. German households suffer the highest prices in Europe. And, over the last 20 years, the prices paid by German industry have almost tripled. Faced with the choice between going broke or going elsewhere, Germany’s world-renowned … Continue reading All Time High: Wind & Solar Obsession Triples Power Costs to German Industry & Domestic Prices Highest in Europe
RE Reckoning: Germans Suffer Europe’s Highest Power Prices – 300,000 Families Can’t Afford Electricity
If ever there was an example of what follows from an obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar, Germany has to be it. No country went harder or faster than Germany did, when it came to carpeting its landscape with solar panels and wind turbines. The results have been an unmitigated disaster. In the … Continue reading RE Reckoning: Germans Suffer Europe’s Highest Power Prices – 300,000 Families Can’t Afford Electricity
Power Brawl: German Power Prices Rocket As Excess Wind & Solar Dumped On Neighbours
German energy policy is a fiasco; the so-called energy transition is a debacle. Germans suffer the highest power prices in Europe, all thanks to an obsession with intermittent wind and solar. When the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in, Germany is forced to import huge volumes of power from its neighbours, particularly nuclear-powered France … Continue reading Power Brawl: German Power Prices Rocket As Excess Wind & Solar Dumped On Neighbours
If Wind & Solar Are So Cheap, Why Are Germans Paying World’s Highest Power Prices?
Renewable energy zealots keep telling us that wind and solar are free and getting cheaper all the time. Germany puts paid to that lie: Renewable Energy Transition: Wind & Solar Obsession Leaves Germans Suffering the World’s Highest Power Prices And, with a looming capacity crunch, Germans will be lucky to have power at all, at any … Continue reading If Wind & Solar Are So Cheap, Why Are Germans Paying World’s Highest Power Prices?
German Obsession with Wind & Solar Means Power Prices Set To Keep Skyrocketing
Germany’s renewable energy transition is an unmitigated disaster: 5 million households are struggling to pay their power bills and 340,000 have been cut from the grid, because they can’t. The push towards a mythical all wind and sun powered future continues apace. Notwithstanding it’s a technical and physical impossibility. Germans happily drain nuclear power generated … Continue reading German Obsession with Wind & Solar Means Power Prices Set To Keep Skyrocketing
Germany’s Renewable Energy Fail: German CO2 Emissions 10 Times Higher than Nuclear-Powered France
The meme has it that wind and solar are all about slashing CO2 emissions, whereas that pathetic pair are just a colossal moneymaking scam. Apart from South Australia, no country other than Germany threw more at chaotically intermittent wind and solar. The results have been an utter debacle: Germans suffer the second highest power prices … Continue reading Germany’s Renewable Energy Fail: German CO2 Emissions 10 Times Higher than Nuclear-Powered France
Deutschland’s Death Spiral: Germany Can’t Control Runaway Cost of ‘Green’ Energy ‘Transition’
When energy policy is driven by ideology, rather than engineering, physics and economics, expect mixed results. Unmitigated disasters, like Australia’s wind and solar capital, South Australia are just the most obvious examples of what happens when lunatics take charge of the asylum. Germany is right up there, too. With rocketing power prices and a grid … Continue reading Deutschland’s Death Spiral: Germany Can’t Control Runaway Cost of ‘Green’ Energy ‘Transition’
