Generating power reliably around-the-clock, nuclear power has always made sense – ask the French, for starters. When compared against the chaotic intermittency of wind and solar, and their need for massive and endless subsidies, nuclear power generation wins hands down. If anything, the disaster unfolding in places where increasing wind and solar capacity has wrecked […]

Think your power bill is crushing now; the worst is yet to come. The grand wind and solar ‘transition’ is – according to the 5 year planners – in its infancy, but already the effects of heavily subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar are being spelt out in record retail power bills. To reach […]

Out in the real world where serious money talks, it is becoming obvious that the conclusion has been drawn that many green technologies, unless subsidised by the state, provide profit-free, second-rate solutions to problems invented around a politicised climate crisis.

In a world where humans are regarded as cockroaches and wilful ignorance a winning virtue, it’s little wonder that misanthropes in the West hate everything about coal, oil and gas. Except the myriad benefits that they bring. You won’t find the same attitudes being expressed in India, China and Indonesia – where hydrocarbons are dragging […]

By Paul Homewood h/t Philip Bratby Electric cars are up to twice as expensive as petrol or diesel vehicles to run, new figures have suggested. Running an electric vehicle (EV) can cost more than 24p per mile, while a diesel vehicle is 12.5p. It costs as much as 80p per kilowatt hour to charge […]

Since nuclear is completely clean and green, emitting no gasses, liquids, or anything else, during normal operations, there is no reason why nuclear power stations must be viewed as ugly industrial buildings. They can be made as attractive as a hotel complex or holiday resort.

By Paul Homewood FES 2024 As well as the problem of not having enough wind power at times, there is also the issue of having too much at other times. Consequently we have to pay generators to switch off. The National Grid’s Future Energy Scenarios this year estimated that 42.5 TWh would have […]

Notably, oil produced in the Gulf of Mexico is less carbon-intensive than oil produced elsewhere; one May 2023 analysis commissioned by the National Ocean Industries Association (NOIA) found that oil extracted offshore in the Gulf of Mexico is 46% less carbon-intensive than the global average excluding the U.S. and Canada.

KamalaHarris hasn’t “moderated” on climate issues. She doubles down on “climate crisis” narrative, still supports net-zero energy policies that will harm grid stability, agriculture, and all energy-related sectors. Nor does she regret her IRA vote.
