Chris Parker at Treasury sometimes quips that there are no silver bullets for solving housing in NZ, only pieces of silver buckshot. Basically you’ve got to do a lot of things to solve the problem; any one of them on their own won’t do it. I was on RNZ’s The Panel yesterday afternoon (here, from around…

Another expensive and wasteful result of ‘net zero’ climate obsession in government, as the much vaunted renewables policy continues to prove fatally flawed, no matter how much is spent on it. One obvious problem with wind power is that the times of peak electricity demand and the times of optimal wind conditions rarely coincide. In […]

2023 was the year when the offshore wind industry’s grand implosion began. Major investors bailed out as the insane cost of attempting to (occasionally) generate electricity with no commercial value in hostile marine environments began to bite. Dozens of projects have been scrapped and others are now highly doubtful. And for those wind power outfits […]

Being pounded with 20% increases in power bills, year after year, is all part of the grand wind and solar transition. Every single country that’s tapped into subsidised wind and solar has seen retail power prices rocket – no exceptions. It’s one case where whatever goes up, never comes down.
