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 […]

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 […]

The wind and solar scammers raking in massive subsidies have been joined by the ‘hydrogen huckster’, just as eager to exploit an opportunity when he sees one; an opportunity to gouge untold $billions from taxpayers. The shakedown is said to be justified on the bogus pretext that they’re out to save the planet. Scratch the […]

India has 285 plants with a capacity of 211GW already operating; it’s currently building a further 30GW of coal-fired generation capacity, with a further 35GW in pre-construction stages. A visit to India shows how serious it is about serious power […]

Listen to the wind and sun cult and you’d think that Small Modular Nuclear Reactors are a work of far-fetched Science Fiction. The reality is that some 200 small nuclear reactors are presently powering 160 ships and submarines all around the world, and have been for decades. None of which sits with the narrative pitched by […]

Credit: Scottish Power Hydrogen is no more the wonder gas than CO2 is the opposite. Apart from being very expensive to produce using so-called ‘green’ methods, it’s running into various obstacles elsewhere, such as absence of infrastructure. – – – Europe’s time spent sleepwalking to the tune of hydrogen lobbyists – draining funds and political […]

Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Turns Trainwreck: Australians Face More Summer Blackouts

Dry spells, spell hot summers in Australia, which spell load shedding and mass blackouts, whenever the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in. The summer of 2017/18 was a scorcher. Back then, load shedding caught power consumers short in South Australia, Victoria and NSW. Energy-hungry businesses such as aluminium smelters and even hospitals were forced […]

Britain’s Wind Industry In Freefall: Rising Costs See More Major Projects Scrapped

in energy economics, environmental economics, global warming
The value of subsidies to wind power is falling, while the cost of erecting and operating these things has skyrocketed. The result is a complete collapse in wind power capacity investment in Britain, and elsewhere. The usual suspects are running a mile from projects that were (on paper) worth billions. While the wind industry pretends […]

German power prices, already the highest in Europe, have gone stratospheric. Once Europe’s industrial powerhouse, Germany is fast headed for economic ruin and social disaster. 20 years back, Germany’s Green/Socialist utopians – utterly detached from reality – dreamt up the ‘Energiewende’. However, the purported ‘transition’ to an all-wind and sun-powered future has turned dystopian nightmare. […]
