Federal Labor leader Albanese is battling to stop the bleeding. Following his total demolition when he tied his Flag to the doomed Voice referendum where a total reversal saw his attempt to institute the nonsense New Zealand suffers every day from Native citizens having minimal Maori blood even to the absurdity of none at all […]

Perfectly Justified: Furious Communities Reject Wind & Solar Rollout

The wind and solar industries’ so-called ‘social licence’ evaporated, years ago. Now, rural communities are on the war path. These days, they’re better armed and better equipped to take on rent-seeking carpetbaggers who couldn’t care less about destroying their peaceful and prosperous communities. Thanks to sites like this one, community defenders can spot the lies […]

Totally Risible: Wind Industry Couldn’t Power Australia’s Toasters & Kettles

When the wind stops blowing, wind power stops flowing. It’s that simple. If anyone is looking for proof that wind power is always and everywhere entirely dependent on the weather. Here it is. The graphic above comes from the boys over at Aneroid Energy and it depicts the output from every single wind turbine connected […]

Michael Reddell writes – I got curious yesterday about how the Australia/New Zealand real exchange rate had changed over the last decade, and so dug out the data on the changes in the two countries’ CPIs. Over the 10 years from March 2014 to March 2024, New Zealand’s CPI had risen by 30.3 per cent […]

When in Randall Jarrell’s Pictures from an Institution, a college president is accused of being a hypocrite, the novel’s narrator retorts that the description is grossly unfair. After all, the man is still far from the stage of moral development at which the charge could possibly arise: to be a hypocrite one has to know…

Occasional Wind & Solar Generation Guarantee Staggering Backup Costs

Sunset kills solar output the same way calm weather renders wind turbines utterly useless. Around the world $trillions have been squandered on occasional power generation which is always and everywhere dependent on sunshine and/or the weather. In the beginning, there was a perfectly functional power supply with reliable generators connected by a systematically designed grid […]

Faking It: Why ‘Cheap’ Wind & Solar Power Claims Never Stack Up

Like any ideological cult, wind and solar acolytes bury troublesome facts and replace them with oodles of helpful fiction. Start with the supposed cost of the electricity occasionally generated by wind turbines and solar panels. The usual trick is to invent some model said to capture the unique benefits of running on sunshine and breezes. […]

Uncontrollable Surge: Daytime Solar Output Swamps Grid & Wrecks Power Market

The chaos that’s wrecking our power supplies is what happens when engineers are replaced by ideologues. Long on cultish mantras about the ‘inevitable transition’ and the wonders of ‘free wind and solar energy’, but short on maths, physics and economics, the clowns in charge of our power supplies would have been charged with treason, not […]

Access to reliable and affordable power is just another thing Westerners have taken for granted, for far too long. A band of weather-obsessed ideologues have set about methodically destroying our once perfectly affordable and thoroughly reliable power supplies, by propounding the delusional notion that wind and solar can replace that well-designed system which has powered […]

A decade from now, the wind and solar transition will resemble Alice’s trip down the rabbit hole – a place inhabited by lunatics and where nothing makes sense. Massive and seemingly endless subsidies have perverted the ordinary signals that free and open markets deliver. In Europe, the grand wind and solar rush has come to […]
