Households and businesses faced with crippling power bills are just another bad optic for renewable energy rent seekers. The political support upon which the seemingly endless flow of massive subsidies depends, in turn, depends on the proles’ attitude to those charged with delivering reliable and affordable power. Having just been whacked with 20-30% increases in […]

When disaster threatens the rational retreat, but the clown soldiers on and even doubles down, accelerating the race to oblivion. Facts are treated with contempt; reality with derision. So it is with the grand wind and solar transition. It’s a disease of the mind that allows for the belief that a first world economy can […]

The world runs on luck and credit. The wind and solar ‘industries’ are running out of both. What might have sounded a little hopeful 20 years ago, sounds utterly ridiculous today. Talk about an all-wind and sun-powered future these days smacks of a mixture of delusion and desperation. Wind turbine manufacturers are bleeding cash, with […]

By Paul Homewood Which country will become the first to rat on its net zero target, to find some of putting it off, watering it down – or changing the definition of what counts? There must be a lot of money on it being Germany. Things are not going well in Germany’s bid to reach […]

Prosperity via subsidies, making the energy that powers economies more scarce and/or more expensive, always sounded like a fantasy. – – – When she took to the floor to give her State of the Union speech on 13 September, European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen largely stood by the script, says Phys.org. Describing her […]

By Paul Homewood London, 28 September – A new paper from the Net Zero Watch demonstrates conclusively renewables increase electricity bills — indeed, it is almost impossible that adding a new windfarm to the grid would ever reduce consumer prices. The author of the paper, Net Zero Watch director Andrew Montford, outlines a […]

As wind and solar capacity increases, Germany’s once thriving economy shrinks. And it’s the sudden and dramatic collapse in German industrial output that’s allowed the wind and sun cult to cry ‘victory’ with a claim – based on a statistical fudge – that Germany obtained 50% of its power from ‘renewable’ sources. Sitting behind the […]

The rent-seekers that profit from the great wind and solar scam are always begging for more: more subsidies, tougher mandates and even greater renewable energy targets. Back in 1983, the American Wind Industry Association claimed that solar and wind would be “competitive and self-supporting on a national level by the end of the decade if […]

By Paul Homewood So he did it! Net Zero targets are to be watered down, as long as the Cabinet approves it. The key points are: Petrol/diesel ban pushed back to 2035 Transition to heat pumps switch will be forced only when buying a new boiler, and from 2035. Upcoming property energy […]

Every country that’s tapped into the grand wind and solar transition has left power consumers suffering from Post Transition Stress Disorder – where households and businesses are being pounded with power prices at unprecedented rates. Australia, is no exception. At the minute Australians are being bombarded by media attempts to convince a wholly nonracist Australian […]
