Net-Zero ‘Green’ Reset Designed to Destroy Our Reliable & Affordable Power Supplies
10 May 2022 Leave a comment
Net-zero carbon dioxide gas emissions targets are designed to destroy the reliable and affordable power supplies that have brought prosperity to billions around the globe. Dressed up in marketing blurb, net-zero targets sound cheap, but with energy supplies there is no such thing as a free lunch. Plenty of household and businesses have already worked out that the great wind and solar scam brings with it rocketing power prices and routine power rationing.
But that is precisely what punitive mandated renewable energy targets and massive subsidies to wind and solar were designed to do.

Don’t say we didn’t warn you. STT has been banging on about this since December 2012. The graphic above from Dr Michael Crawford spells it out: add massively subsidised and chaotically intermittent wind and solar to your power grid and watch power prices spiral out of control.
As STT has pointed out a number of times, the gaming that’s the subject of the ACCC’s interest is a natural consequence of a very natural set of phenomena: wind and solar power output collapses, that occur whenever the sun sets and/or calm weather sets in:
