Common Sense On Energy Wins

The Business Report supplement to The Mercury of May 14 commendably exemplifies the adage ‘hear the other side’ by juxtaposing three articles on the issue of renewable energy, from which it is obvious which ones purvey truth and reality.
The whining of Blessing Manale of the Climate Change Commission about ‘misinformation’ is ironic in the extreme. He wants free speech defended but only if it adheres to the narrative of the World Economic Forum that climate change is caused by fossil fuels. A confused man indeed, particularly as climate change is a natural phenomenon proven by science and history.
Immediately below Manale’s misinformation about fossil fuels is an upbeat article about the anticipated economic boom which oil and gas exploitation heralds for Namibia and its economy. Absolute common sense!
Below that positive report, Dr Adrian Blanck explains how and why Spain and Portugal had a power blackout. It’s the engineering, stupid! is what he unpacks. Renewables, which the Iberian Peninsula has embraced 100%, are unreliable and not sustainable as energy sources because, in the first place, they are intermittent in what they produce, which makes them incompatible with how grids work, besides being ultra expensive.
The best part of Dr Blanck’s broadside on the green fantasy is: “ Engineers, system architects and real specialists must reclaim their voice in energy policy debates…. Europe has no future following absurd decisions by ignorant policy makers.”
That said, one hopes that no further printing ink and space is wasted on the false rhetoric of the likes of Blessing Manale and the devious renewables agenda of the WEF.
