The infantile mentality of the renewables cult is on vivid display when they crow about wind or solar adding something meaningful to the grid. Always brief and fleeting, the 60 minutes when solar or wind did something special, is always trumpeted as if no one else cares about their power needs for the other … Continue reading Sun Cult Exuberant Over Brief Moment When Solar Delivered: Then Came Sunset…

Cold Consequence: Europe’s Wind & Solar Obsession Promises Very Bitter Winter Ahead
Germans are paying the price for their Green-Left government’s maniacal fixation on heavily subsidised and hopelessly intermittent wind and solar. Already suffering Europe’s highest power prices, with prices still on the ascendant, German bureaucrats have been reduced to rationing energy of all descriptions at the micro level, in a way not seen since its postwar … Continue reading Cold Consequence: Europe’s Wind & Solar Obsession Promises Very Bitter Winter Ahead
Wind & Solar Transition Means Transition to Power Rationing & Rocketing Power Bills
When the sun sets and calm weather sets in, wind and solar power can’t be bought at any price. Increase the capacity of the unreliables connected to your grid and get ready for not only rocketing power bills, but routine power rationing. Once upon a time, electricity was cheap and it flowed like running water. … Continue reading Wind & Solar Transition Means Transition to Power Rationing & Rocketing Power Bills
The Big ‘Green’ Lie: Why We’ll Never, Ever Be 100% Powered By Wind & Solar Power
The wind and solar acolyte in their more delusional moments readily proclaims that an all-wind and sun-powered future is upon us. Never mind sunset; never mind dead calm weather; and never mind the fact that the idea that giant lithium-ion batteries economically storing wind and solar power at grid-scale is pure hokum – for the … Continue reading The Big ‘Green’ Lie: Why We’ll Never, Ever Be 100% Powered By Wind & Solar Power
Total Flop: Nothing ‘Inevitable’ About So-called ‘Transition’ to Wind & Solar
A mixture of wishful thinking and childish pipedreams, there’s nothing inevitable about the so-called ‘transition’ to wind and solar - Sunset remains a fixed feature of daily life, as does stubbornly calm weather. But the acolyte and rent seeker would have us believe that these natural phenomena are either trivial obstacles to be overcome - … Continue reading Total Flop: Nothing ‘Inevitable’ About So-called ‘Transition’ to Wind & Solar
Powering Down: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Mean End of Reliable & Affordable Power

Dead End Street: There’s No High-Tech Fix For Wind & Solar’s Hopeless Intermittency
Europe’s obsession with intermittent wind and solar has left it exposed to an ambitious Russian who controls the oil and gas on which Europe critically depends. As Vlad’s Ukrainian adventure bogs down among shattered tanks and morale, his threat to chop oil and gas supplies to Europe increases, revealing just how dependent Europe has become … Continue reading Dead End Street: There’s No High-Tech Fix For Wind & Solar’s Hopeless Intermittency
Destination Devolution: The ‘Green’ Industrial Revolution – A Monstrous Marxist Lie
Believe that we can run on nothing but sunshine and breezes, then you’ll believe anything. No country has ever run itself on wind and solar power, alone. No country ever will. Even mythical mega-batteries can’t change that equation. Only the truly delusional believe that we can eradicate our reliance upon fossil fuels of all descriptions, … Continue reading Destination Devolution: The ‘Green’ Industrial Revolution – A Monstrous Marxist Lie
Self-Inflicted Energy Insecurity: Vlad Impales Wind & Solar Obsessed Europe
Like a giant boa constrictor, oil and gas-rich Vlad Putin has a chokehold on wind and solar-obsessed Europe. ‘Green’ policies designed to wipe out reliable and affordable coal and nuclear power plants - on the pretext that they would be replaced by the chaotic output from wind turbines and solar panels - have long been … Continue reading Self-Inflicted Energy Insecurity: Vlad Impales Wind & Solar Obsessed Europe
Dumb & Dumber: Germany Wins Prize For World’s Most Idiotic Energy Policy
Germany set the gold standard for idiotic renewable energy policies, although the Brits, Californians, Texans and South Australians are keen contenders for that glittering prize.
