2017 Blog Posts Demonstrating that Windpower Won't Work
REMARKABLE ANALYSIS BY A JOLLY DUTCHMAN ALMOST TEN YEARS AGO
This is a series of blog posts by a jolly Dutchman who was keeping a close eye on wind and solar power delivery in Holland and Germany to show that there was no hope for the transition to wind and solar power.
The combination of machine translation from the Dutch and Gert Jaap’s mischievous commentary makes for interesting reading.
1. Does 100% wind-& solar power work? Spoiler. No, never
The first piece illustrates the impossibility of accumulating enough spare power to put into storage on good days to maintain supply through low wind and sun periods.
2. The unpleasant facts about wind energy that you never hear...
The second post shows that the coal plants will be driven out of business by the subsidised windmills.
3. Unsubsidised offshore wind farms? Especially a sustainable dream!
This deconstructs the claim that unsubsidised offshore wind is a viable proposition. The new Premier of Victoria is calling for another look at that issue as we speak.
4. The German use is full of steam.
The fourth post examines the result of the loss of nuclear power in Germany. Coal power increased somewhat while wind and solar increased a great deal, to the point where a huge amount of surplus wind and solar power has to be pushed over the border on windy days. This represents an export of billions paid to RE generators to provide cheap power for the benefit of foreign consumers.
5. €37.7 billion for 1.43% extra renewable energy. The energy agreement is a lasting fiasco.
At the conclusion of the famous – if not notorious – energy agreement, a target of 14% sustainable energy was agreed in 2020. and continuously to 16% in 2023. That energy agreement is a monstrosity of the top shelf, in fact it is an agreement among the grant recipients on how the tax money is to be distributed.
The taxpayer himself has never been at the table, and that agreement has never even been put to the vote on the members of the second chamber. For example, there has never been an orderly cost/benefit analysis. What will it cost and how much sustainable energy do I get? The General Court of Auditors attempted in 2015 and came up with a shocking €73 billion. Other calculations are based on more than €100 billion to 2020.
Then we soon have more than €12,000 per household!
6. Criticism of journalists and RE defenders.
This answer implies that CO2 would be environmental pollution. Again incorrect, CO2 is anything but no environmental pollution. The world is mainly greener. The less emitting of CO2 therefore only has a marginal effect on ‘ the climate ‘, in the most optimistic scenario approximately 0.17 degrees Celsius in 2100.
7. More criticism of the ‘alternative facts’ of the fake climate factchecker.
8. The German use of the gas - hundreds of billions poorer, zero CO2 result.
9. Berlin, you have got a problem. De Energiewende.
