Economic Euthanasia: Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Means Energy Poverty Everywhere

Once upon a time, the object was delivering power to everyone, everywhere, all the time. Not anymore. Chaotically delivered and heavily subsidised wind and solar have another object, and it is not one that their proponents dare speak of. If delivering reliable and affordable power were the object, then no one would be talking about […]

Global CO2 Emissions Likely To Rise Through 2050–US EIA

By Paul Homewood     By 2050, energy-related CO2 emissions vary between a 2% decrease and a 34% increase compared with 2022 in all cases we modeled.

The Oil Demand Outlook COP28 Leaders Would Hate 

The 28th UN-sponsored attempt to reduce global ’emissions’, in line with its pet climate theories, stares its own failure in the face as emissions keep going up. The renewables industry is running fast to stand still in terms of making a global dent in oil usage, for example. Imposition of ‘net zero’ policies may impact […]

Frozen Supply: Unreliable Wind & Solar Means US Faces More Winter Blackouts

Northern hemisphere winters are particularly brutal on wind turbines and solar panels, the former frozen solid and the latter blanketed in snow and ice. The result being no power from either. Peak winter conditions are perfect for revealing the peak stupidity of attempting to power first world economies with generation systems that deliver nothing but […]

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
