Solar Energy Is Getting 200 Times More In Federal Subsidies Than Nuclear & 191 Times More in Subsidies Than Oil, Gas & Coal – Solar handouts could total $900 billion by 2060
Robert Bryce: “Thanks to climate corporatism, some of America’s biggest corporations, including NextEra Energy and MidAmerica Energy, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, are collecting billions of dollars in tax credits and they stand to collect untold billions more in the coming years thanks to the IRA.” …
“The subsidy picture for the landscape-blighting, bird-bat-and-whale-killing wind industry is only slightly less depressing. According to the the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT), the wind sector collected about $2.2 billion in federal tax subsidies in 2022. Last year, the domestic wind sector produced 4.1 EJ of energy. That means the wind sector got roughly $537 million per EJ, or about 41 times more than what was given to the nuclear sector.” …
“What about hydrocarbons? The JCT figures show that federal tax incentives for the hydrocarbon sector totaled about $1.1 billion last year. According to the Statistical Review of World Energy, domestic hydrocarbon production last year totaled about 79 EJ. Thus, the hydrocarbon sector got only slightly more federal tax love than the nuclear sector: about $13.9 million per EJ. That means that solar energy got about 191 times more per EJ produced than what was given to hydrocarbon producers in 2022.” …
“Our grid should be weather resilient, not weather dependent. That means we should be developing low-carbon energy sources that are resilient, scalable, affordable, and ready for deployment. That means N2N: natural gas to nuclear.”

Report says the quiet part out loud: ‘Heavy industry’ (iron, steel, cement) will have to ‘adapt’ to intermittent solar/wind energy – ‘Will need to accommodate effects of weather conditions…time of day on wind & solar power generation’
“The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE), a nonprofit research organization, develops policies to reduce energy waste and combat climate change.”
Report: “With Planning, Heavy Industry Can Use Wind and Solar Power” – “The growth of renewable power is key to helping industrial companies decarbonize quickly and economically, but it will also require them to adapt. While many facilities operate 24/7, they will need to accommodate the effects of weather conditions, the season of the year, and the time of day on wind and solar power generation.“
‘Heavy industry’ includes energy-intensive industries, such as iron and steel, cement, bulk chemicals, refining, and food and beverage manufacturing.

Thousands of Old Wind Turbine Blades Pile Up in West Texas – ‘Out-of-state company has made their town a dump’ for discarded wind turbine blades
UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Bullied Into a Catastrophic Wind U-Turn – A group funded in part by Extinction Rebellion hounded Sunak into overturning the ban
https://www.realclearenergy.org/2023/09/07/rishi_sunak_bullied_into_a_catastrophic_wind_u-turn_977813.html By Rupert Darwall Daily Mail The fairy tale of cheap wind energy is falling apart. Whether at sea or, even worse, on land, wind-powered electricity turbines are not simply inefficient and horrendously expensive — they threaten Britain’s entire energy programme. Yet a blinkered group of Tory rebels, backed by a dodgy European consortium funded in part by extremists […]
Greta’s Call to ‘End Fossil Fuels Now’ Would Not ‘Stop Climate Change’ – Would Cause Deaths of Millions says Friends of Science

‘The iron fist in the green glove’ – ‘Net Zero is an authoritarian assault on our liberty & our living standards’
https://www.spiked-online.com/2023/09/06/the-iron-fist-in-the-green-glove/?mc_cid=9b2d112423 By BRENDAN O’NEILL – 6th September 2023 Greens have been dreaming about jailing ‘climate criminals’ for a very long time. Climate-change deniers in particular will ‘one day have to answer for their crimes’, said eco-author Mark Lynas a few years back. Well, Gaia’s authoritarian army might finally be getting its way. The new Energy Bill currently before […]
Energy Bill Authorises ‘Reasonable Force’ to Install Smart Meters that Allow Authorities to Turn Customers’ Energy On and Off
