Industrial Scale Battery Storage of Wind & Solar Would Cause Surge in CO2 Emissions

Californian carpet-bagger, Elon Musk has been threatening South Australia with a plan to scoop up at least $150 million of the $550 million its hapless Labor government is about to squander on non-fixes for its self-inflicted wind power disaster. So no time like the present to reflect on just how 'green' is SA's plan to … Continue reading Industrial Scale Battery Storage of Wind & Solar Would Cause Surge in CO2 Emissions

Ontario’s Eco-Fascists’ ‘Kill Coal’ Agenda Kills Ontario Instead: Now ‘Everything Costs More’

Ontario’s energy policy is in tatters; power prices have crushed business and the roll out of thousands of these things has wrecked the lives and livelihoods of thousands, in what were once peaceful and prosperous farming communities. In short, Kathleen Wynne & Co have dug an enormous hole from which there may be no escape. … Continue reading Ontario’s Eco-Fascists’ ‘Kill Coal’ Agenda Kills Ontario Instead: Now ‘Everything Costs More’

Trillion Dollar Irony: Europe’s Wind Rush Sends CO2 Emissions Soaring

If “saving” the planet is – as we are repeatedly told – all about reducing man-made emissions of an odourless, colourless, naturally occurring trace gas, essential for all life on earth – then European energy/environmental policy has manifestly failed. And what an expensive failure it is. In the following piece, the delicious term ‘irony’ springs … Continue reading Trillion Dollar Irony: Europe’s Wind Rush Sends CO2 Emissions Soaring

South Australia’s Wind Power Chaos: Victoria’s Coal-Fired Plant its Only Salvation

Wind cultists have been making the brazen claim that the rampant proliferation of these things in South Australia led to the demise of Alinta's coal-fired plant at Port Augusta. The perverse economics of the LRET (and the market distortions of directing RECs - currently worth $80 - to a 'product' with NO commercial value) is … Continue reading South Australia’s Wind Power Chaos: Victoria’s Coal-Fired Plant its Only Salvation

India’s Energy Experts Baffled by ‘Greens’ Hostility to Nuclear Power

**** After the Paris Climate Jamboree, the wind industry, its parasites and spruikers are licking their chops at the prospect of having the rich world fund the construction of millions of these things in the dark corners of the Planet. But, while the eco-fascists that ponced around Paris are ready to foist a wholly weather … Continue reading India’s Energy Experts Baffled by ‘Greens’ Hostility to Nuclear Power

Why Weather Dependent, Intermittent & Unreliable Wind Power is as ‘Useful as a Chocolate Teapot’

**** There are 3 electricity essentials - that the power source and its delivery to homes and businesses be: 1) reliable; 2) secure; and 3) affordable. Which means that wind power – a wholly weather dependent power source, that can’t be stored and costs 3-4 times the cost of conventional power – scores NIL on … Continue reading Why Weather Dependent, Intermittent & Unreliable Wind Power is as ‘Useful as a Chocolate Teapot’

Wind Industry’s CO2 Abatement Claims Go Up in Smoke

The central, endlessly repeated lie upon which the wind industry seeks to 'justify' the colossal and endless subsidies upon which it critically depends; the destruction of wind farm neighbours' health, wealth and happiness; and the slaughter of millions of birds and bats, is that wind power causes substantial reductions of CO2 emissions in the electricity … Continue reading Wind Industry’s CO2 Abatement Claims Go Up in Smoke
