A week or so back, ex-Department of Energy and Climate Change apparatchik, and now head of RenewableUK, Hugh McNeal dropped the mother of all clangers, when talking about the “future” of wind power in Britain (see our post here).

Kathleen Wynne’s Ontario Wind Power Fantasy Doubles Power Prices
**** Ontario was, once upon a time, an agricultural and manufacturing power house. Alas, the former pursuit has been smashed by plummeting property values and sonic torture, making thousands of farm homes uninhabitable; the latter endeavour has been demolished by power costs that have risen 108% due to the fantasy of trying to rely on … Continue reading Kathleen Wynne’s Ontario Wind Power Fantasy Doubles Power Prices

Climate Change Probably Won’t Kill You, But Having No Power Certainly Will
**** When we see the term 'AGW', we understand those that propound it to hold “global warming” as an irrefutable fact.

The Colossal Cost of Intermittent & Unreliable Wind Power
**** 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 The Colossal Cost of Intermittent & Unreliable Wind Power
The Staggering Cost of Pointless Wind Power: Can Australia Avoid Economic Suicide?
South Australia has earned the unenviable title of Australia’s ‘Wind Power Capital’. For its sins it has seen power prices rocket (the forward price, at $90 per MWh is more than double its neighbour Victoria’s) and unemployment with it: worse is yet to come, on both scores. Then there’s the grid instability and state-wide blackouts … Continue reading The Staggering Cost of Pointless Wind Power: Can Australia Avoid Economic Suicide?
Wind Power: Dangerous, Expensive, Pointless, Bird, Bat & Community Killer
Producing power with NO commercial value (save the massive taxpayer/power consumer subsidies it attracts); at a cost 3-4 times that of the reliable and secure stuff; spontaneously bursting into flame, throwing 10 tonne blades to the four winds or crashing to Earth in fits of vertical surrender, and along the way prematurely taking more than … Continue reading Wind Power: Dangerous, Expensive, Pointless, Bird, Bat & Community Killer

Want to Destroy Your Economy? Then Follow the World’s Wind Powered Leaders: Germany & South Australia
As any student of that dismal science will tell you: for businesses, input costs matter. While wind-cultists claim that their beloveds wouldn't hurt a fly, let alone wreck whole industries, the reality is a long way removed from eco-fascist fantasy. Jack up power prices and, all things equal, an energy hungry firm's profits must fall … Continue reading Want to Destroy Your Economy?
