Australia’s unfolding power pricing and supply calamity reveals just how critical our coal-fired power plants are if we want power as and when we need it. Sure, there’s a choice between virtue signalling about your love of wind and solar and visceral hatred of “dirty” coal-fired power. But allow the deluded wind and sun … Continue reading Australia’s Power Pricing & Supply Calamity All Down To Wind & Solar Chaos

Dumb & Dumber: Continued Wind & Solar Obsession Defies All Logic & Reason
The renewable energy pit deepens, but there’s no indication the dolts in charge will ever stop digging. The, by now obvious, consequences of attempting to rely on sunshine and breezes include another annual power price increase of over 20% this month and routine power rationing by postcode. In response, there’s a growing groundswell of hostility … Continue reading Dumb & Dumber: Continued Wind & Solar Obsession Defies All Logic & Reason
Hitch Your Power Needs to Sunshine & Breezes – Get Ready for Regular Disappointment
Weather-dependent wind and sunshine-dependent solar are the prime cause of Australia’s electricity pricing and supply debacle. So much is obvious to anybody who bothers to go beyond the drivel pitched up by the MSM and the politicos responsible for the disaster. Over the last decade, STT has laid it out in pictures, such as the … Continue reading Hitch Your Power Needs to Sunshine & Breezes – Get Ready for Regular Disappointment
America’s Energy Crisis: Subsidised Wind & Solar Main Reason For Record Power Prices
Failure’s an orphan, success has a thousand fathers, but subsidised wind and solar are central to the energy disaster playing out in America, Europe and Australia. Faced with rocketing power prices and an angry proletariat, the political classes have amped up their deceptive rhetoric, with wild and fantastic claims that the only way to rein … Continue reading America’s Energy Crisis: Subsidised Wind & Solar Main Reason For Record Power Prices
Subsidised Suicide: Unreliable Wind & Solar Guarantee Economic Self-Destruction
Intermittent wind and solar are a guarantee of rocketing power prices and rocketing power prices are a guarantee of economic destruction. An energy-hungry world will never satisfy its needs by pinning consumers’ hopes on the weather. But that’s the model that our political betters have been pushing over the last 20 years. How we landed … Continue reading Subsidised Suicide: Unreliable Wind & Solar Guarantee Economic Self-Destruction
Power Price Shock: Australia’s Renewables Disaster Proves Wind & Solar Ain’t Cheap
In a weather-dependent energy world, those lucky enough to get power when they need it are being forced to pay a king’s ransom for it. Having championed the use of tens of $billions in subsidies to destroy the coal-fired generators that gave Australia its reliable and affordable power supply, Australia’s new Federal Labor government is … Continue reading Power Price Shock: Australia’s Renewables Disaster Proves Wind & Solar Ain’t Cheap
Ingrained Insanity: Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Disaster Leaves Australians Powerless
Australia is yet another perfect example of how to trash a power supply with heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar. Germany, California and Texas led the charge and Australia’s so-called renewable energy capital, South Australia was amongst the front runners. SA set the tone with Australia's first statewide blackout - during a spring … Continue reading Ingrained Insanity: Self-Inflicted Renewable Energy Disaster Leaves Australians Powerless
House of Cards: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Delivers Total Energy System Collapse
A house of cards has more structural integrity than a power generation system that depends on sunshine and breezes. Australia’s unfolding renewable energy debacle is a case in point. Total daily collapses solar output (aka ‘sunset’) and total collapses in wind power output (aka ‘calm weather’) are at the heart of a power pricing and … Continue reading House of Cards: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Delivers Total Energy System Collapse
Mission Impossible: Net-Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions Targets Amount to Economic Suicide
Costly and chaotic wind and solar are central to so-called ‘net-zero CO2 emissions targets’. The renewables driven energy calamity playing out in Europe, California, Texas, and now Australia can only worsen under the yoke of further efforts to reduce carbon dioxide gas in the electricity generation sector with much more of the same. As the … Continue reading Mission Impossible: Net-Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions Targets Amount to Economic Suicide
Panic Stations: Daily Wind & Solar Shortfalls Threaten Australia’s Entire Electricity Grid
Subsidised and intermittent wind and solar infiltrate and destroy power grids like an aggressive cancer. But, unlike cancer, the cause of Australia’s power pricing and supply debacle is precisely known, and was as perfectly predictable, as it was perfectly avoidable. The massive subsidies to wind and solar were deliberately designed to knock reliable and affordable … Continue reading Panic Stations: Daily Wind & Solar Shortfalls Threaten Australia’s Entire Electricity Grid
