The truth about the great wind power fraud
Among the myriad of myths propounded by the wind industry sits the promise of millions of groovy ‘green’ jobs purportedly on offer. In this post STT covered a very detailed study from Wisconsin on the effect of rising power prices (caused by massive subsidies diverted to wind and solar) has on real jobs. Based on actual […]
Remember all those stories about the wind & solar industries providing millions of groovy, well-paid ‘green’ jobs – as secure as Fort Knox? No? Sure, you’ll hear those pitching RE promise loads of ‘sustainable’ jobs, as they wail about dreaded ‘uncertainty’ – causing bankers to baulk and investors to flee; and as they demand (with […]
There is no surer way of wrecking an economy than cranking up energy costs. And there is no surer way of doing that, than by attempting to run on subsidised wind and solar power. Just ask a South Australian, a German or a Dane (who pay the highest power prices in the world, all […]
Australian power consumers have just started opening their winter power bills, which are fully 20% higher than this time last year. By comparison, Australia’s underlying rate of inflation is around 1.5%. The consequences for the economy, as a whole, are just starting to bite. Restaurants, bars and retailers are copping it from both ends. Business […]
In Australia’s rushed and ridiculous attempt to run on sunshine and breezes, objectivity and compassion were early casualties. Boffins, journalists and pundits from the green-left end of the swamp worship wind and solar power as the beguiled from some mediaeval cult. What singles out these Pinot Gris sipping neo-Marxists is their malignancy towards Australia’s […]
One “justification” put up by the wind industry and its parasites for the social and economic chaos caused by spiralling power costs and – in places like notionally wind ‘powered’ South Australia – load shedding and blackouts (caused by daily wind power output collapses) is the claim that investment in wind power would create a […]
*** 2016 was the year that Australia’s voting public turned on wind power with a vengeance. Once upon a time, we were treated to pumped up claims from wind industry spruikers, like the Clean Energy Council, yes2ruiningus and ruin-economy based on loaded ‘surveys’ that there were only two types of people: those already in love […]
My plan, ‘my bad’…. *** Thanks to its Liberal Government and their fanatical pursuit of subsidised wind power, Ontario faces a monumental social and economic crisis. Here’s the view of an unfolding calamity from a battered, but once proud and prosperous province. The five sins behind Kathleen Wynne’s power failure: Why the Ontario Liberals under […]
*** In Ridley Scott’s 1991 feminist version of the classic American road film, Thelma and Louise, the protagonists hit the road in a 1966 Ford Thunderbird convertible, hoping to escape the dropkick men in their dreary lives. Thelma, in resisting the unwanted advances of a would-be rapist, pumps her assailant full of lead and the […]
*** To call what Australian politicians refer to as energy “policy” is to flatter it as involving some kind of deliberate design. As things have panned out in South Australia, and are fast panning out in neighbouring Victoria, there is only one fair description: “total chaos”. South Australia lost 784MW of reliable, affordable base-load power […]
