The value of subsidies to wind power is falling, while the cost of erecting and operating these things has skyrocketed. The result is a complete collapse in wind power capacity investment in Britain, and elsewhere. The usual suspects are running a mile from projects that were (on paper) worth billions. While the wind industry pretends […]

German power prices, already the highest in Europe, have gone stratospheric. Once Europe’s industrial powerhouse, Germany is fast headed for economic ruin and social disaster. 20 years back, Germany’s Green/Socialist utopians – utterly detached from reality – dreamt up the ‘Energiewende’. However, the purported ‘transition’ to an all-wind and sun-powered future has turned dystopian nightmare. […]

In their sillier moments, the wind and sun cult point to places like California or Germany as prime examples of energy Nirvana. Then come the facts. California and Germany have most certainly led the charge in backing heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar, but they’ve also led the charge on rocketing power prices […]

The fact that those pushing net-zero emissions targets aren’t talking seriously about nuclear power, says it all. If energy policy is left in the hands of the wind and sun cult – and other weather-obsessed lunatics – it won’t be long before we’re all left sitting freezing or boiling in the dark. Those with financial […]

Hubris drives the so-called wind and solar ‘transition’, which now depends upon the myth of giant batteries compensating for the vagaries of the weather and sunset. These mythical batteries come in all shapes and sizes and with enough added hyperbole have grown to include the entire island state of Tasmania. Touted with the rent-seeking classes’ […]

As in life, government policy is about trade-offs, which usually means plumping for the good rather than the perfect. However, in the de-industrialising West, energy policy is all about rejecting the good in favour of the unworkable. The notion that weather-dependent wind, and weather and sunshine-dependent solar (with or without pumped hydro or mythical mega-batteries) […]
