By Paul Homewood This caught my eye: Germany’s residential grid operators will be empowered to restrict the flow of power to heat pumps and electric vehicle (EV) chargers from 2024 in order to preserve the stability of the grid, which is suffering from chronic underinvestment. Across Europe, investments into grids are lagging […]

Ponzi schemes last only as long as their creators can draw in fresh suckers. The wind and solar industries are fast running out of suckers. America’s Enron set the standards early, parading manufactured financial statements that never reflected the fact that Enron was a worthless house of cards. Gullible investors kept piling in, which helped […]

In the above recent video, Dr. David Dilley explains how natural climate cycles portend Global Cooling in the near future despite any human effort to keep up the warming. The discussion is wide-ranging, starting with his background and credentials, and covering climate political agendas and media distortions. My excerpted transcription below focuses on the science […]

By Paul Homewood There’s one more thing to note about this announcement: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/boost-for-offshore-wind-as-government-raises-maximum-prices-in-renewable-energy-auction As well as the massive price rises for offshore wind, prices have also been increased for solar power:

When might it occur to politicians, German or not, that endless subsidies to feed their own climate obsessions either come out of the same pot as the rest of their government’s income, or by pumping up national debt – or both? Looks like a road to nowhere, or nowhere good. – – – As Germany […]

Given the choice, power consumers would have rejected the wind and solar transition and the net-zero CO2 madness that underpins it, from the outset. At the heart of their new-found and growing hostility is the question of who benefits? And who pays? Having been repeatedly pounded with off-the-charts electricity bills, the great unwashed are starting […]

The transition to electric vehicles is hardly going to plan: sales have collapsed in the US, EV manufacturers are bleeding cash and insurers are cranking up premiums to account for an uptick in the number of unscheduled battery blowups – aka ‘thermal runaways’. The vehicle doesn’t go anywhere, it simply self-immolates in a plume of […]

2023 will go down as the year that the wind industry began its inevitable implosion. Unable to deliver power as and when power consumers need it (therefore generating electricity with no commercial value), the wind industry was only ever the product of mandates, tax breaks and massive subsidies. Call it a Ponzi scheme, call it […]

“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.
