Just as Europe reverses course on its wind and solar-powered energy calamity, in Australia, the lunatics in charge of the asylum are determined to double down and destroy what remains of this country’s once reliable and affordable power supplies. With policies directed at wiping reliable coal-fired power plants off the map and rewarding the unreliables … Continue reading Australia’s Total Wind & Solar Push – Nothing Short of Total Insanity

Wind & Solar Power: Always & Everywhere Totally Unreliable & Insanely Expensive
The wind and sun might be free, but the true and total cost of wind and solar power is truly astronomical. Every country that’s hitched its wagon to the subsidised wind and solar scam has seen retail power prices rocket; with no single exception. Francis Menton has been trawling through the evidence for some time … Continue reading Wind & Solar Power: Always & Everywhere Totally Unreliable & Insanely Expensive
No End In Sight: ‘Renewables’ Fixation Keeps Delivering Double-Digit Power Price Rises
Any increase in dependence on intermittent wind and solar guarantees ever-increasing power prices. In Australia, that trend was set in 2010, following a massive expansion in the Federal government’s Renewable Energy Target, brought in under then Labor PM, Kevin Rudd. The cost to consumers was always going to be colossal; what the energy boffins didn’t … Continue reading No End In Sight: ‘Renewables’ Fixation Keeps Delivering Double-Digit Power Price Rises
Not So Cheap: You’re Paying Colossal Cost Of Climate Cult’s Wind & Solar Obsession
Their self-inflated 'virtue' has a price, and you’re paying it, every red cent of it. That last jaw-dropping power bill has their fingerprints all over it. So do the occasions when thousands are left sitting freezing or boiling in the dark; when cash-strapped businesses are forced to sack staff to cut their overheads so they … Continue reading Not So Cheap: You’re Paying Colossal Cost Of Climate Cult’s Wind & Solar Obsession
Baseload Basics: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Guaranteed to Keep Lights On In Australia
Germans soon recognised the importance of their coal-fired power plants, forced to reopen them days after shutting them down in January 2021 because, surprise, surprise, the wind stopped blowing. And that big backpedal occurred long before Vlad Putin began putting the squeeze on the gas supplies needed to prop up those occasions when Germany’s 30,000 … Continue reading Baseload Basics: Coal-Fired Power Plants Only Thing Guaranteed to Keep Lights On In Australia
Reality Collision Course: World Accelerates Towards Subsidised Wind & Solar Trainwreck
Before the wind and sun cult took charge, the power grid was designed and run by engineers - using coal, a little gas, hydro and nuclear (everywhere else in the world except Australia, that is). It ran like clockwork; power was cheap as chips and delivered on demand. Electrical storms were the only thing that … Continue reading Reality Collision Course: World Accelerates Towards Subsidised Wind & Solar Trainwreck
No Defence: Chaotic Wind & Solar Prime Culprits For Massive Retail Power Price Hikes
The insane cost of the wind and solar ‘transition’ is starting to bite; the wind and sun cult are struggling to shift the blame. While Vlad Putin may be a seriously thuggish dictator, he can’t seriously be held responsible for rocketing power prices in the UK, Europe and Australia, where power prices have been surging … Continue reading No Defence: Chaotic Wind & Solar Prime Culprits For Massive Retail Power Price Hikes
Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means End of Reliable & Affordable Power – Forever
The destruction of once reliable and affordable electricity supplies is so evidently deliberate, it can no longer be put down to ignorance, alone. Nothing but brazen ideology sits beneath the claim that we are a heartbeat away from a transition to an all wind and sun powered future. We are continually told that, putting aside … Continue reading Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means End of Reliable & Affordable Power – Forever
Smoke & Mirrors: Claims About Wind & Solar Being Cheap Don’t Stand Contact With Reality
Renewable energy rent seekers keep spreading the lie about wind and solar being the cheapest form of power there is. Trouble is, there isn’t a shred of evidence to support claims about wind and solar being cheap. There never was. The position your country occupies on the table above is directly related to increased reliance … Continue reading Smoke & Mirrors: Claims About Wind & Solar Being Cheap Don’t Stand Contact With Reality
The Great Wind Power Swindle: Households & Businesses Being Crushed By Record Power Bills
If wind power is cheap, why does every country obsessed with it suffer rocketing power prices? The game of smoke and mirrors played by renewable energy rent-seekers, has enabled them to avoid any critical scrutiny of the role heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar play in driving power prices into orbit. A decade of … Continue reading The Great Wind Power Swindle: Households & Businesses Being Crushed By Record Power Bills
