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

Wind Power Output Collapses Driving Wholesale Power Market Chaos
Random 3,000 to 4,000 MW wind power output collapses at the heart of Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity. In a, don’t say we told you so moment, Australia’s self-inflicted renewable energy chickens are coming home to roost. Power rationing is now routine and power prices are soaring out of control. What's depicted above – courtesy … Continue reading Wind Power Output Collapses Driving Wholesale Power Market Chaos
Renewable Energy Delusion: Counting Staggering Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
The notion that we’ll soon be exclusively powered by wind and solar is an appalling delusion, but one which comes with a staggering price tag. Sure, the wind and sun are free, but attempting to rely upon chaotically generated wind and solar power is an altogether different prospect. Adding wind turbines and solar panels to … Continue reading Renewable Energy Delusion: Counting Staggering Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
Prices Double: Obsession With Subsidised Wind & Solar Causes Runaway Power Prices
Australia’s power pricing and supply calamity is the product of policies deliberately designed to wreck reliable and affordable power supplies. Massive and seemingly endless subsidies to chaotically intermittent wind and solar have done what they were designed to do: drive the owners of reliable coal-fired power generators to the wall, by allowing wind and solar … Continue reading Prices Double: Obsession With Subsidised Wind & Solar Causes Runaway Power Prices
No Mystery: Calm Weather & Sunset Root Cause of Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
The relationship between weather-dependent wind/sunshine dependent solar and rocketing power prices is crystal clear, so too the post ‘transition’ phenomenon of power rationing caused by sunset and/or calm weather. Australia isn’t alone in experiencing a power pricing and supply calamity, all its very own making; Germans, Danes and Californians have enjoyed much the same and … Continue reading No Mystery: Calm Weather & Sunset Root Cause of Power Pricing & Supply Calamity
Total Failure: Britain’s Grand ‘Cheap’ Wind Power Plan Faces Total Collapse
If wind power is so ‘cheap’, then why is it that retail power prices continue to rocket in every country attempting to run on breezes? There are, as this site has pointed out over the last decade, myriad reasons, starting with the fact that wind power can only be delivered as and when Mother Nature … Continue reading Total Failure: Britain’s Grand ‘Cheap’ Wind Power Plan Faces Total Collapse
Renewable Energy Rip-Off: How Price Gougers Profit From Sunset & Calm Weather
Intermittent wind and solar are a natural guarantee of grid chaos and rocketing power prices. Every single country that’s chased the wind and solar pipe dream has watched their power prices go through the roof, with no exception. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. STT has been banging on about this since December 2012. The … Continue reading Renewable Energy Rip-Off: How Price Gougers Profit From Sunset & Calm Weather
The Hard Data: Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Inevitably Drive Power Prices Into Orbit
The relationship between rocketing power prices and heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar couldn’t be clearer. Every country that’s embarked on the so-called ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future is suffering from surging power prices. Add wind and solar generating capacity and watch power prices go into orbit, as … Continue reading The Hard Data: Why Subsidised Wind & Solar Inevitably Drive Power Prices Into Orbit
Inevitable Transition: Why Intermittent Wind Power Drives Power Prices Through The Roof
Every country attempting to run on wind and solar suffers rocketing power prices; no exception. In Britain, power prices jumped 50%, overnight, when a legislated price cap was lifted; and power prices continue to rise at an astonishing rate. Subsidised wind power is at the heart of Britain’s power pricing and supply calamity. Pete North … Continue reading Inevitable Transition: Why Intermittent Wind Power Drives Power Prices Through The Roof
Why Wind Power Output Collapses Are Causing Europe’s Power Prices to Rocket
Rocketing power prices were inevitable once Europe decided to put all its energy eggs in the wind power basket. Europe has squandered billions on subsidies to construct tens of thousands of turbines both onshore and off - the Germans managed to spear more than 30,000 across their homeland and are paying a hefty price. By … Continue reading Why Wind Power Output Collapses Are Causing Europe’s Power Prices to Rocket
