Quick! Switch off the wind turbines! MGUY EV News Thursday 13 June 2024 | MGUY Australia 

The energy shortage is so great in Germany that they are forced to demolish wind farms to access the coal they are built on 😅

its never been about controlling the climate, its about taxing the people...

Congratulations! You've now earned the coveted United Nation's Climate Change blue banner for your channel.

We need a new party here in Denmark: "Stop the climate hysteria!"

It must have been all those dastardly ICE cars that caused the glaciers to melt thousands of years ago.

If we listened to 'all the scientists' we'd all be dead.

Since so many Alibaba EVs catch fire with no provocation instead of hitting them with a tariff just ban them as a safety hazard.

I worked for VESTAS for about 5 years. I was the manager of safety on the construction of 6 windfarms in Australia, including the largest in the Southern Hemisphere at Macarthur Victoria. The industry is an awesome place to work and the money is great, because its your taxes mostly. However as a method to generate power, it is unlikely humans will ever develop anything less efficient. Most of the time you can rub a pair of nylon panties on your head and generate more electricity than most windfarms.

Germany is a prime example of green madness!

I am a New Zealander we have lots of hydro and thermal power production that was owns by the people until a criminal government sold it all to private interests and now we need a mortgage to pay the power bill - sound familiar

The thing about Germans paying to have Danish wind turbines idle, is not just about intermittent production, it's a built-in bug in the whole concept that can't be fixed: when the wind blows and all the propellers turn, the price plummets so the operators don't make any money. When it's calm, the propellers don't spin and they don't make anything either. Before they paid wind operators to shut down their plants, the operators PAID customers to take the 'leccy off their hands, because idling wind turbines cost money too - not just in capital costs, but operationally as well. Of course, this is not a problem for the operators as long as government pays you a guaranteed minimum price for your produce, no matter if the demand is there or not.

If you want to reduce CO2, plant trees, instead of ugly wind turbines that desecrate the beautiful landscape. It's visual pollution.

As soon as I hear the term "fossil fuels", I know that the person doesn't know what they are talking about.

I saw a video of a helicopter flying around a wind farm to de-ice the turbines. 🤡 🌎 China does it even better, they plug them into the coal-powered grid to make them spin. 🤣

It’s the same in the UK. if it’s windy and the wind turbines are not turning, it’s because there’s too much energy in the system and they get paid to not turn.

WOODCHIPS FROM OREGON, SHIPPED TO UK TO BURN IN POWER STATION....

MG is NOT a British car brand anymore! It was bought by the Chinese in around 2005!

Brought to you by the same WEFfers that gave you "Safe & Effective!"

Imagine the bird life these monstrosities destroy.

If you want to reduce CO2, plant more trees, NOT wind turbines, that desecrate the beautiful landscape. It's visual pollution.

Paid to turn off wind turbines in windy weather!!!!! WTF!!!!!

Thank you for your reporting. I watch your reports twice a day to affirm that I'm not the only sane person left in the world. Keep up the good work.

In 1970, the world population was under 4 billion. Now it is over 8 billion. It has doubled. Over 100% more... So, even if every single one of those 8 billion people somehow managed to produce 40% less co2 - the total population would still be producing more co2 than in 1970. How is everyone going to produce 100% less co2? Live with no lighting, no heating, no home, no cooking, no food, no transportation whatsoever? There is no hope of getting back to 1970 co2 levels while we have the 2024 population levels.

Yesterday was the coldest day in Melbourne for 5 years. Definitely the winters are getting hot! No.

I live close to those Danish windmills. I can confirm your story. I wonder how Sweden and Norway dial the hydro power up and down? Our 4 countries contribute power to the cross country grid. Your Danish pronunciation is quite good by the way!

I think you can expect not to experience an ice age during your lifetime. At school in the 1950s and 60s I was taught that the Earth goes through a 26,000 year cycle of cold and heat. So if the last ice-age began almost 13,000 years ago we must now be heading for the hot-age, and humanity will be able to do absolutely nothing about it.

For Australia NOW IS THE PERFECT TIME TO GET BACK TO BASIC'S. Start producing cars with simple mechanics that anyone can work on , with ZERO COMPUTERS involved , just like we did after WW2 .

We have to learn from our mistakes. Instead, we tell lies to hide our mistakes.

The electric utility I worked for also had to turn off wind turbines - and pay the generators for not generating - when it was windy, but not because they were producing so much power that they would overload the system. It was because the wind generators are essentially induction motors whose shafts are driven at faster than synchronous speed, causing them to produce real power, but at the same time they consume reactive power (vars) from the power system when they're running. The consumption of vars makes the system voltage go down when the generators are on line, and the more power they produce, the lower the voltage goes. Shunt capacitors are installed to supply vars for the generators, but only enough to meet the generators' no-load var requirements. This isn't enough to prevent the voltage decay that occurs when they're operating at full power. So to keep the system voltage from going down too far during windy conditions, the generators had to be turned off, and the owners had to be paid for the amount of power they were prevented from generating. Crazy to say the least.

We have not had brains in our government for a long time... its giving me hope.... from NZ

FREEZING COLD BRITAI N DURING ''FLAMING JUNE''

I think the ice age is beginning in SE England as we speak 😂

I'm all for Net Zero. The internet needs to be eliminated.

What? You telling us now that Mother Nature wasted 12 Trillion dollars that we gave her to be free of fossel fuels.

CO2 make plant grow. So the green deal is actually the brown deal in more than one way.

The Issue Attention Cycle: Who remembers when vehicles were fitted with LPG tanks and ran off natural gas? What happened to that? Leaders claimed it was clean and the future and now look at it!

Spot on MGUY

Shared PUBLICLY on all social sites I use.

I see climate change as very little science but very much religion.

Vote Reform UK. This is now a credible party. But only if we ALL vote.

Green is where the Graft is That is all the politicians care about.

12 trillion dollars wasted... imagine what could have been done if that money had been put to good use...

IF ELON MUSK TOOK A DUMP DRIED IT OUT AND PUT WHEELS ON IT HIS FANBOYS WOULD STILL BUY IT !

Excellent work as usual. Perhaps you should chat with Geoff Buys Cars youtube channel in the UK.

Sorry for late comment, but I can tell you some facts, I used to contract to a UK utilities company. Part of that was updating software that controlled wind turbine generators. Wind measured, say in so many meters per second determine the regenerative braking helping with how much electricity is produce. But it is a fine line, that slight over the mark wind the brakes are fully applied. Seems crazy, but these wind turbines can be broken so easily. Plus the power that is needed to restart the turbines comes from the grid, you are actually getting they little out of them.

The approach Koonin takes in his book Unsettled is ingenious. He takes the IPPC's 6th Assessment Report (AR6) and compares it with the narrative propagated by the media and politicians. The discrepancy exposes the hyperbole of the alarmists.

We are the carbon being reduced!

It is not just the balance of the green power, but the fact that green power is what’s called dirty power - power that is erratic with spikes and falls all over its production. A nightmare for power grid managers. Nuclear is power that can be produced that is smooth, consistent, and when you need it.

In the next ice age we will be burning coal like mad.

Here in Victoria yesterday (Thursday) it was horrible rainy weather all day with high winds. Solar would have been rubbish. And no doubt we have no wind generation as they may have been turned off due to the weather as we do have several wind turbine farms. Therefore we can’t rely on renewables.

Hang on MG is NOTa British car brand. Neither is Lotus really..wish we did still have British MGs!

I’m for nuclear.

thanks for the sanity

UNSETTLED is a great book

I found it very interesting to read the reports about the locations of many of the thermometers measuring the “ average planet temperature “……in cities, near sidewalks and heat reflecting objects like buildings.

Thanks for all your work it's always interesting and informative 👍

As a dane, I will say your pronauncements of danish names are close to perfect. Bliv endelig ved med at lave disse videoer om dette grønne vanvid. Tummel op fra Danmatk.

You're charting the end of a global hysteria. Keep it up.

I am an old codger who suffered through the earlier "we're all gonna freeze" panic. At least the professional alarmists waited for 3 months between the last "we're all gonna freeze" and the first "we're all gonna fry".As soon as any group, including Governments, which make a lot of noise about their pet matter, I tend to become extremely doubting and look carefully at any evidence.

This is your most telling video yet. Hope some pollies watch it.

in Dobrogea, Romania, a lot o wind turbines were also not turning and the rest were turning very slow

anyone who bought the Cyber truck for a tax loss ..... BRILLIANT my hats off to you Good Sir or Maam

Thanks for doing these updates - very informative. The inevitable ads for electric cars at the beginning are hilarious, considering the content of your videos.

I can confirm the demand charge issue. In a former job, I was in charge of a site wide demand management system. This was a large site with multiple multi-megawatt loads. The system I worked with had consoles at every load and operators could schedule times they wanted to run and how much load they anticipated running. Other operators would then see if their own planned operations overlapped with already scheduled operations. The system would warn if the monthly peak demand would be exceeded. If so, they had to get approval from the bean counters to proceed. The demand charges typically exceeded the actual cost of electricity for the entire month. As an example, if the monthly peak was say 120MW and then towards the end of the month, a pair of 100MW loads wanted to run at the same time, that would push the peak to 200MW. If one of those loads could be delayed to another day or the next billing cycle, then they could each run, @ 100MW, and not bump the peak demand charge up for the month.

Thank you for reporting!

Unsettled is one of the best, well researched book on climate change I have ever read. He was a liberal in the Obama admin, but is meticulous about being true to science. Caution, it has math.

In a world starved of common sense, I enjoy and appreciate every one of your podcasts👍👍👍

Yep.. gotta stop the oceans from BOILING

We are in an ice age now. We have a south pole with still increasing ice levels. At best, it will level off if the earth heats a few degrees. What will happen is more rain and less deserts.

There is no climate threat and more co2 would only benefit all living things on earth. Co2 is a prerequisite for all life on earth.

4:15 I remember the times when Soviets noticed that Caspian Sea was losing water and they decided to help and started turning rives to get more water. Then they found in some old books or archives that actually the Caspian Sea was having 50 years swing where water level goes up and down. This is nature. Some events happen on its own without us.

It is stupid to have voted for someone who is not going to do what you want or make you do what they want,

What is insane is that Labor government pours money in renewables , very large companies owned by billionaires. It then pays them more money to ensure they make 10-15% net profit. It then hand money to consumers to help with their energy bills. That is madness

We are currently in an ice age dude!

I worked for an energy company in Spain in 2018. They hired diesel powered floodlights to shine onto solar panels at night to gather more government subsidies, because the electricity generated was “renewable”.

Is it just me or does every one get an ad for an Ev before watching MGUY

That is the same problem in Germany. And due to the 'merit order' power producing companies get paid at the highest rate. This is why power fees keep going up.

Phase 6 - Zero Fox Given

It's the same in the UK, I read that at low demand energy companies pay wind farms for unused energy, hence the subsidies for green energy, also they have to spray deicer on them if it's freezing and they also use a lot of oil apparently for lubrication and leaks.

Everybody should read Dr Steven Koonin's "Unsettled". One of the planet's best qualified scientists, and a major contributor to the IPCC modelling, he became disenchanted when the models failed utterly to match historical records.

In Spain they turn off the wind turbines and turn on the combined cycle plants because we pay for all electricity at the price of the most expensive source 🤬

With the marginal increase of Co2 over the last 100 years has seen green space increase by over 20% since just 25 years ago. That means the ability to grow more food for both human and animal populations which makes food insecurity less of an issue.

Lastnight in Fullerton California a Tesla on autopilot slammed into a police cruiser. The cops were processing a fatal DUI motorcycle accident at the time. A police cruiser was blocking lanes in the road to create a detour around active scene. Officers had to run.out of the way of the "Model Why?:. Driver told police the Tesla was on autopilot while he was on phone watching RU-vid.

@3:47 no , we don't. Saying "I know the climate is warming but " sounds like "I hunt , I own guns , I believe in the 2A.....but " I will posit that 1934-36 was hotter in 2020 than it was in 1980.

Ontario, Canada also pays for wind turbines to NOT produce electricity.

CO2 (.004% of the atmosphere) is 1.5 times heavier than air so it tends to fall, to where the plants and trees are, which is quite handy, If it were a lighter gas, such as Helium it would rise so plants, trees and people wouldn`t be around, that`s why we have a tree line on the slopes of mountains, because the very low CO2 levels up there cannot sustain tree life and the higher you go the less plant life there is. C02 and Methane (which makes up just .00017% of the atmosphere) have no effect on climate. On Twitter, climate sceptics were quick to observe that the same organisation that funds virtually every think tank promoting net zero, coincidentally funds Quentin Wilson`s pro-ev outfit. Practically every single green "civil society" organisation is funded by the European Climate Foundation (ECF). Even the "Think Tank" that produced Sunak`s election-saving miracle policy of compulsory National Service ONWARD, is ECF funded. From XR through every Labour, Lib-Dem, Green Party, Tory-aligned think tank, trade unions and university research organisations, the ECF pump tens of millions each year into seemingly "independent" organisations to align commentary on the Net Zero agenda as a condition of funding. It`s the same funding that enabled UK100 to lobby for low traffic neighbourhoods and clean air zones throughout the country and the same funding that supports the Conservative Environmental Network caucus of MPs of which Secretary of State for Energy and Net Zero, Clair Coutinho is a member. And the same ECF that funds the CarbonBrief outfit that produced the ridiculous lie, "wind power is 9 times cheaper than gas." that still animates Westminster Net Zero narratives. "Misinformation" is the blob`s vernacular for the unauthorised views or debates that occur outside that sphere. The concept has been developed by the blob to protect itself from democracy, debate and criticism. When the Green Blob pumps out dubious claims about the benefits of Net Zero, it`s called "campaigning", and anything other than that narrative is misinformation, especially when, as usually happens, they lose the argument.

A key feature of the UK's electricity policy will be the need for daily blackouts - they are actually planning for this future in the UK grid planning.

ST BRIEUC WIND TURBINES COST £74M ILLION EACH 62 X £74M TO CREATE 9% OF ELECTRITY FOR BRITTANY (WHEN WIND BLOWS)

Hi Simon: I love your commentary regarding climate, the people who make the laws, EV's Charging stations, Li Fe batteries, etc. I find it hard to believe that these batteries have not as yet been banned. I live in a county that is 5600 square miles in area. The population density is less than point 6 persons per square mile. Mostly farming & oil & gas is its economy. Several days ago , I saw the first EV car that I have ever seen in this county. There were two of them in total & BOTH were from Edmonton. Nobody in this county would have an EV ! Alberta has the highest number of pickup trucks per person over any other place in North America, except for Texas. Most pickups are diesel powered. It is not unusual to have temperatures of lower than minus 40 ( F or C they are both the same) & I have seen minus 60 many times. EV,s are few & far between here. Cheers! Brian from the wind swept Prairies of Alberta Canada.

"As the UK accelerates to Net Zero" 😂😂😂😂

The upstream needs and costs from the little chargers just can’t be understood by most people…. Imagine filling your pool with a garden hose …. That’s what home charging is …. Just imagine how expensive it would be to renew your plumbing all the way back to your new dam …. That’s what you’re talking about!!!

With that show you have earned my subscription, thanks for your work.

Have you seen the story from the US, about people going around and cutting the cables off the EV chargers, to steal the copper???

Texas is the 4th largest producer of wind energy in the world. For June so far, Texas has produced 7,700 megawatts through wind; 10.4% of all electricity produced, out of a "capacity" of 39,000 megawatts solely from wind. Solar has produced 18% of the state's electricity this month - but it _is_ summer here, so naturally there's a lot of sun right now. Despite the claims of blind leftists, the power outages during the winter storm a couple years ago were caused by failures of wind turbines _and_ a lot of downed power lines. When trying replace the missing wind power, power companies had trouble starting up the mothballed natural gas plants, as they had not been prepped for use and were all frozen over. (Ecomentalists conflate the inability to restart the gas plants with a failure of natural gas being the problem that winter.)

One large EV charging using as much energy as 20 houses. Hows that going to work?

I think it's ignorant of us to assume we can affect mother nature

Re greening works better than low emissions on minor pollution emitters. It's been proven to work in Africa, Jordan, Australia we have plants that draw the water table and encourages other plants, this makes localised weather systems, (more rain), encouraging more growth, more co2 containment. - it works. This with cleaner technology, with ease many climate issues we currently have, forcing EVs on the world does little good but huge damage to the environment.
