It only takes eighth grade mathematics and a little logic to work out that there will never be any grand transition to an all wind and sun-powered future - it’s an impossible dream, to top them all. As Leen Weijers explains below, the fact that this is even a subject for discussion is based on … Continue reading Impossible Dream: Busting The Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Myth (With Numbers)

Utter Madness: Trivial Energy Return For $Billions Squandered On Unreliable Wind Power
Despite the countless $billions in subsidies thrown at wind power, its contribution to world energy demand remains an accounting rounding error. Talk about wind power making a meaningful contribution to electricity supplies is pure delusion. And yet, those that pretend to govern us openly conspire with the rent-seekers stealing from us in their joint efforts … Continue reading Utter Madness: Trivial Energy Return For $Billions Squandered On Unreliable Wind Power
Risible Renewables: Weather-Dependent Wind Power – Never There When You Need It Most
Pin your energy needs on the weather, and prepare for disappointment, over and over and over again. South Australians know it, Germans know it, Texans and Californians know it, all too well. In the latter part of 2021, as the Big Calm descended across Western Europe, Brits learned all about it, too. Quietly firing up … Continue reading Risible Renewables: Weather-Dependent Wind Power – Never There When You Need It Most
Energy Matters: Why Wind & Solar Make Trivial Contribution to World’s Energy Needs
Notwithstanding the $billions in subsidies directed to wind and solar, their joint contribution to energy demand amounts to little more than a rounding error. Oil and gas still account for more than 80% of world energy demand and talk about an ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future, remains just that. Energy … Continue reading Energy Matters: Why Wind & Solar Make Trivial Contribution to World’s Energy Needs
Nature’s Revenge: Europe’s Big Calm Reveals Wind Power’s Hopeless Unreliability
Being unable to deliver electricity as and when power consumers demand it means wind power will never be a meaningful power generation source. So much has been revealed by the burst of calm weather that struck Western Europe last month. Call it Mother nature’s revenge. Where the wind power acolyte waffles on about the percentages … Continue reading Nature’s Revenge: Europe’s Big Calm Reveals Wind Power’s Hopeless Unreliability
Hopeless Joke: Australia’s Wind Power Output Just Keeps On Collapsing, Time & Time Again
If you’re looking for a definition of ‘hopeless joke’, look no further than the daily contribution of Australia’s 6,960 MW industrial wind power fleet. One hackneyed myth relied upon by the wind cult in this country (everywhere, really) is that the “wind is always blowing somewhere”. Which is complete and utter bollocks. Spread from Far … Continue reading Hopeless Joke: Australia’s Wind Power Output Just Keeps On Collapsing, Time & Time Again
Mind The Gaps: Wind Power Delivers Massive Daily Output Collapses Across Australia
There’s nothing like wind power when it comes to delivering grid chaos. It’s all about the weather, really. If a picture’s worth a thousand words, what’s depicted above and below speaks volumes about just how pathetic is the ‘performance’ of Australia’s wind power fleet. Spread from Far North Queensland, across the ranges of NSW, all … Continue reading Mind The Gaps: Wind Power Delivers Massive Daily Output Collapses Across Australia
Wasted Time: US Squanders Countless $Billions in Subsidies to Chaotically Intermittent Wind Power
Power consumption is a here and now kind of thing, so talk about wind power powering 100,000 homes is utter nonsense. To expose the lie, the inquisitive need only ask when, precisely? When will those 100,000 homes be powered in any meaningful sense by a power source that’s entirely dependent upon the vagaries of the … Continue reading Wasted Time: US Squanders Countless $Billions in Subsidies to Chaotically Intermittent Wind Power
False Dawn: On The Hollow Promise Of An All Wind & Solar Powered Future
Back in 1983 the American Wind Industry Association claimed that solar and wind would be “competitive and self-supporting on a national level by the end of the decade if assisted by tax credits and augmented by federally sponsored R&D”. That was 36 years ago. There has been no lack of assistance in the form of … Continue reading False Dawn: On The Hollow Promise Of An All Wind & Solar Powered Future
Risible Renewables: World Finally Waking Up To Wind & Solar’s Nightmare of Nonsense
It’s 2020 and, if you believe the hype, we’re well on our way to an all wind and sun powered future. Except that - notwithstanding $trillions in subsidies, punitive mandates and punishing targets - the contribution of wind and solar to world energy demand remains risible. And - not simply because it’s fun to rain … Continue reading Risible Renewables: World Finally Waking Up To Wind & Solar’s Nightmare of Nonsense
