2024 Registrations Of New Electric Cars Plummet 27.5% In Germany…”Petrol Dominates”

How’s the Green New Deal working out in Germany? Not very well at all. Firstly, Germany has been in recession for almost 2 years now – thanks mostly to the policies of Economics Minster Robert Habeck (Green Party), who incidentally has no education in economics, business or finance. The guy just doesn’t know what he’s…

Germany Already Rationing Energy…”Avoid Using Electric Appliances Until After 11 A.M.!

Recall that Germany’s green energy masterminds decided that it would be best to decommission the country’s fleet on nuclear power plants, and to produce weather-dependent power with wind farms operating in the north of country, and then supply it to southern Germany via power transmission lines. There’s on problem with the masterplan from the green masterminds: the wind doesn’t blow all the time and so shortages result and rationing becomes necessary!

As Germany’s Energy Crisis Heightens, Two Brief Windless Periods Pushes Grid To The Limit!

It is also often forgotten that wind turbines consume electricity when they are stationary or switched off. This is because all technical components (oil pumps, fans, control systems, etc.) must remain in operation even when they are still. Vestas specifies an electricity consumption of 55,000 kWh per year for a 4.2 MW turbine at standstill. During production times, the turbine supplies itself with electricity. But it is virtually idle 120 days a year.

Not only did their green tinged lunatics squander billions on chaotically intermittent wind and solar, they deliberately destroyed one of Europe’s best run nuclear power generation fleets, in the bargain. Whenever calm, cloudy weather hits – aka ‘dunkelflaute’ – […]

Germany’s Manufacturing Industry Destroyed By Wind & Solar Obsession

There’s no better example of how heavily subsidised wind and solar will wreck an economy than Germany. Over the last 20 years, the Germans have destroyed their once reliable and affordable power supplies and ‘replaced’ it with chaotically intermittent wind and solar; but without coal-fired power from Poland and nuclear power from France, Germans would […]
