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. Growing populations and incomes increase fossil fuel consumption and emissions, particularly in the industrial and electric power sectors. These trends offset emissions reductions from improved energy efficiency, lower […]

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 […]

Emissions of methane, a greenhouse gas 80 times more powerful than carbon dioxide, […]

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 […]

Apparently thousands of well-paid, well-fed politicians and bureaucrats have pumped out tens of thousands of tonnes of CO2 in order to gather in Dubai to discuss how the global Deplorable Class can be made to pump out less of that gas. Did I say thousands? I meant 100,000 of these…. people, who all arrived by […]

In previous post, I wondered where exactly methane storage is implemented in the 100% Renewable Electricity Calculator and how seasonal storage is dealt with. Spoiler alert, no methane storage whatsoever is implemented in the calculator and seasonal storage is not taken into account. But then, how is the proposed Power-to-Methane-to-Power backup system implemented in the […]
