Sun Sets On Subsidised Solar Scam: Solar Energy Share Prices Plummet 40% Overnight

Investors are dumping solar energy shares in the same way users discard worn out panels after their brutally short and punishingly expensive lives. Any ‘industry’ that relies for its existence on other people’s money never lasts all that long. As Margaret Thatcher put it: “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of […]

America’s Wind Industry Implodes: More Offshore Projects Scrapped

In the US the offshore wind industry is completely underwater, in every sense. The insane cost of attempting to (occasionally) generate electricity with no commercial value in hostile marine environments has finally caught up. Projects are being scrapped in the same way that punters rip up their betting slips when their long-shot nag fails […]

Why Wind & Solar Are Wrecking Our Economic Prosperity & National Security

Dilute, diffuse, intermittent and unreliable, wind and solar make no sense. They will never constitute meaningful power generation sources. They were only designed as subsidy generation sources. As governments pull the plug on subsidies, wind power outfits and turbine makers are pulling the plug on their projects and production. Siemens Energy is losing cash like […]

Diesel-Driven: Electric Car Charging Stations Powered by Giant Banks of Diesel Generators

While wind and solar advocates reckon we’ll all soon be driving electric vehicles charged up using sunshine and breezes, it’s ‘dirty’ old diesel that’s doing all the hard work. In Australia, those seemingly virtuous souls with EVs are really being propelled by coal, because 85% of the electricity passing through its Eastern grid comes from […]

Forever Cancelled: Escalating Costs Crippling Giant Offshore Wind Power Projects

The laws of economics don’t discriminate: where the costs of any venture outweigh its benefits, investors stay at home. Originally lured with the meme about wind power being free, and getting cheaper all the time, plenty of hopefuls poured cash into wind power outfits like NextEra, Avangrid and turbine manufacturers like Siemens. Lately, however, the […]

Litigation Only Way to Protect Communities & Environments From Wind Turbine Rollout

Holding hands and waving placards just doesn’t cut it. If you want to protect the environment or your community from the industrial wind power onslaught, then litigate. In this post, we contrast a community off the coast of New South Wales, Australia where a rally of surfers gathered to stave off the threat of an […]

US Watchdog Has Grim Winter Warning: There May Be Blackouts 

If it’s climate obsession versus reality in US power supplies, there can only be one winner. Strong opposition to new gas pipelines plus increasing reliance on intermittent renewables can only end badly for consumers of power. – – – As much as two-thirds of the United States could experience blackouts in peak winter weather this […]

Big Green in trouble – German version

A number of folk have been waiting impatiently for the contradictions of consensus climate policy to become undeniably apparent.   What’s happening in Germany might fit the bill. Germany’s ruling Socialist-Liberal-Green coalition shut down the last of the country’s operating nuclear reactors in April in line with their agreed policy.  They overrode calls for a reversal […]

Phony Nitrogen Crisis for Making War on Farmers

A war against farmers has emerged, threatening to push them off the land they’ve farmed for generations. As small and mid-sized farms close their doors, governments and corporate entities can scoop up the land.  Those in control of the land control the food supply and, along with it, the people. In Canada,  Trudeau’s Liberals have […]

Rent-Seekers Retreat: Grand Wind & Solar Transition Faces Total Collapse

The smart money is banking on the wind and solar industries’ total collapse; the smartest money was never invested in the greatest Ponzi scheme of all time. With subsidised wind and solar looking more like a house of cards, dozens of grand standing projects are being unceremoniously dumped. The potential investors targeted by their proponents […]

Germany’s Monumental Wind & Solar Power Fail Delivers Total Economic Disaster

Ideological experiments come in all shapes and sizes, but Germany’s wind and solar craze is monumental – a monumental environmental, economic and social disaster, to put it mildly. Suffering routine power rationing, mass blackouts and Europe’s highest power prices is only just the pointy end of what Germany’s boffins called the ‘Energiewende’, which was touted […]

“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.
