Here's a lesson, the Chinese Communist Party was established in 1921 by western central bankers and other western oligarchs. It's perfectly rational to conclude that Xi Jinping, today, is a stooge of the central bankers of today. Marxism, communism, socialism are tools used by the oligarchs to consolidate political and economic power. They control it, fund it and organize it, it's theirs.

Funny but my energy bills went down when I installed solar panels. Payback period is 6 years, lifetime of panels 30 years. In profit 24 years. The scam is by the big energy corporate monopoly, which is being broken by installing your own renewables. If every domestic housing newbuild had solar panels installed 16 gas fired power stations could be closed every 5 years. That would replace the reliance on cheap imported gas and reliance on expensive imported North American gas. Do you understand big energy monopolies fund think tanks to scam you to maintain their profits.

BJ (yet another moniker for something less than what you paid for) is highly intelligent & knows exactly how all the building blocks fit together. The problem was highlighted right at the start: “…a very good salesman…” All salesmen have ulterior motives unrelated to others personal needs. Typically the motives are only self serving, and might benefit the larger organization only as an accidental benefit due to prearranged agreements. I see every populist politician simply as a salesman, and the majority of longtime politicians in the same bracket.

Unfortunately that's a main human fault. Humans learn more from their mistakes than from their successes. In today's reality, facts mean nothing until ignoring them proves them to be relevant. Nuclear is the only available solution that has the scalability and reliability to meet net zero targets and yet irrational fear of its potential, yet unlikely, negative impacts, prevents most societies from adopting it. Solar, wind and batteries will never sustain billions of people. If we dropped fossil fuels today, millions would die and we would burn every tree on the planet.

This is correct discussion. I’m a UK citizen and energy has risen by at least 3x. The government interventions are totally off the mark relying on taxation of the workers (yet again as usual) ignoring that they can’t afford their bills either. So we have a situation where everything is going up because of energy costs. Government are taking more taxes, central bank is increasing mortgages rates, and the middle classes are being eye wateringly screwed. It seems ironic that my energy bills have tripled (from £200 up to £600 per month) and our home is always cold and damp now. Total joke. I’m now being expected live like my mother brought up in a rented tenement slum in Manchester, with damp in the rooms and no central heating. Disgrace. So don’t talk to me about sustainability. You can shove it where the sun don’t shine 😂

@Equiluxe1
@Equiluxe1 Год назад
@Graham Bennett They may be switched of but the way subsidies are paid here in the uk solar and wind earn more not producing than when on line, that is like you getting paid more at work doing nothing than when doing work. And grids do not store energy batteries of some type do but they are not very efficient and only hold power for a very short period, with pumped water systems being the most effective but there are not many of those and not many places that they can be built as for a world wide grid the costs are prohibitive and the amount of cabling required may exceed the supply of copper and aluminium.

We are on stand alone solar power and believe me it only takes 3 days of overcast weather to grind our system down to a standstill. Thank God for the diesel backup. The reason we went solar was simple, we objected to buying poles, wires and a transformer but owning nothing and then having the privilege of paying electricity bills. It's like buying a shop, stocking the shelves then giving it to Coles or Woollies and buying the stock off them. On grid was going to cost us $60K stand alone cost us $34K and no bills other than a small amount of diesel.

@lauriejones3198 Год назад
@@rezkitten8278 the facts are simple. Wind and solar are not reliable enough for base loads, no matter how much of it you have. If a day is cloudy and calm, you need instant power generation that is only possible with gas, coal or nuclear. There is nothing cheap about so-called renewable power. Costs of replacement at the end of their very short lifespan (panels and turbines) is never included in costings. Battery technology is yet to be viable or cost effective. There is no viable way to recycle turbine blades. There is no energy efficient way to recycle solar panels yet either. Wind and solar projects have to be heavily subsidised or they do not get built. If this green energy was cheap why the high costs always rising and why the need for free money to start and sustain it? Without oil we all starve and go back to primitive subsistance living, as per the 1700's. We are already being told to expect regular power cuts because the system will not cope. It has coped just fine before removing coal and gas power. If we alk bought electric cars there is not enough power to charge them. Most existing homes and apartments cannot handle car charging without extensive electrical infrastructure input. Electric cars become throwaway items if damaged or their batteries give up. Electric cars burn regularly, so much so that you will not be covered when your burning electric car destroys your house. There is nothing green about green energy. Yet. Perhaps one day, in another lifetime or two.

There was then the Minoan Warm Period in which civilisations thrived, followed by a minimum in which many collapsed; then the Roman Warm Period when again they thrived, followed by another cool period known as the Dark Ages in which they collapsed; then the Medieval Warm Period when temperatures worldwide were equal to or higher than today, then the Maunder Minimum, the coldest this planet has been since the Ice Age. Famine and war marked this period because of major crop failures. Finally, we come to the Modern Warm Period beginning around 1800, which we are still in, a period marked by considerable advance in civilisation and greater growth of people and vegetation. These are major changes that had massive impacts on our lives. There is nothing happening now that has not happened before during the Holocene Period. Also: a bit rude, that ""Please explain" schtick, don't you think?

I'd be careful making statements about how much coal China has left. There's often a big difference between reserves and resources (please note these are very specific legal terms). What is economically minable are "resources", while, what is in the ground, but not properly explored is "reserves". What often typically happens is that you mine out your reserves and have to convert resources into reserves through exploration (drilling holes). I had this chat with a mate who's familiar with Indonesian coal geology, I made this point that someone said that, "The Indonesians are running out of coal". What was actually happening was that they weren't replacing reserves with resources (not doing enough exploration). So, it's quite possible that the Chinese have vast coal reserves, but they're not properly defined, and as such, can't be called resources. As you get closer to mining them, they get explored in greater detail, and converted into resources. Also, undersea mining is a PITA.... You need to dig access tunnels (declines) with a portal onshore. These are super expensive, over $25000 AUD/m, and you may need to dig kilometres of tunnel. As such, the reserve/resource needs to be huge, and easy to mine, so you can get high productivity, and dig up a lot of coal. There are a couple of deposits around Wollongong and some in Canada that are offshore. But, what it means is that your capital costs (tunnels) can be vast, before you start mining (without adding any other of your needed costs). Huge CAPEX requirements kill potential mines dead super fast.
@NamekGregory

With high respect for your comments, I think that when we talk for reserves these are volumes which can produced with economic benefits based on market prices. After these we can talk for technical recoverable reserves which can be produced based on existing technologies available, and last we can talk for resources which are related with what volumes are underground. Another aspect on energy energy is what energy is produced with energy used. For example if we produce 1 barrel oil which has 5.8 millions BTU and consume 300000 BTU the ratio is ERoEI=19, and if we produce barrel bitumen which has 5.8 million BTU (APOROXIMATELY), but we use 1500 scf natural gas then the ERoEI is only 4.

Having devoted some 12 years to the pursuit of the possibility of a self sustaining Wind energy system, I started to look at the cost of the two essential parts - The Turbine, and the Alternator, or electrical half- of a "Turbine" i.e. a wind Turbine-Alternator device - TAD. This is what soon became clear. A turbine of Twice the diameter, replaces 4 previous, but costs 8 times as much for materials (Area becomes 2 squared, Volume, 2 cubed x what it was). The One Alternator, however, (to replace the 4) costs only about Twice as much as any one of them. So the A-bill halves if we double the diameter of the "TAD"s, and use 1/4 as many, i.e.same size "farm", whilst the T-bill Doubles. It soon becomes clear that he Total cost, T+A, is minimum for sizes where the T and the A cost about the same. Now by some remarkable piece of Cosmic serendipity ?, that size is neither a mile across - nor an inch across - but just happens to be a very convenient, man handleable, 0.5 to 1.5? m across. It is hard to justify building them much outside of this range, on economic grounds. Much more info available regarding a very cost effective system which has performed as expected/hoped for over 10 years atop a house in Bulgaria. Delivering as near as I can ascertain a full 50% of the total k.e. of a wind of over about 10m/s, as Watts (at VOLTAGE DEPENDANT UPON WINDSPEED) for use. These facts are totally ignored by current "designs" which makes the product - kW-Hrs - a dozen times more expensive.

The price per kWhr of power during this "peak period" is typically half the so called "off-peak period" rate. This is not a typo.

The difficulty with hydrocarbons is the ever decreasing EROI (Energy Return On Investment). Although the proven reserves continue to increase, the EROI is falling. In 1910, the EROI for oil was 100... you could readily pull 100 barrels of oil from the ground at a cost of 1 barrel of investment. The oil was of high quality and was found in large pools close to the Earth's surface. By 1970 this had dropped to 30; falling to 10 by the year 2010. The EROI for US shale and Canadian tar sands is between 4 and 6. That is, the cost to extract and refine a lower grade "oil" continues to increase. Civilization, as we know it in the modern convenience-filled world of abundance, requires an EROI of 10+. The folly is that a vast quantity of oil is employed in the mining, fabrication, transportation, installation, maintenance and decommissioning of wind turbines. The turbines must be supplemented by hot-standby power, typically nat. gas. This further increases the use of hydrocarbons. There is nothing sustainable or "green" regarding wind turbines -- after 15 years, the costs to maintain a turbine exceeds its electrical outputs. Offshore turbines degrade even more quickly due to the punishing salinity of the environment. To make matters worse, after a year of extraction, the flow from oil and gas basins in the US drops by 40% (or more) which requires longer pipelines, greater inputs (water, fracking fluid, sand, etc). The Marcellus Basin, in the US, is now employing 20,000' long pipelines. This has been described as 'fracking on steroids.' EROI is falling while depletion rates are rising. This phenomena is referred to as the Energy Cliff. Economic shocks from hail-stoning down the Cliff will be experienced in the period 2025-2030. By 2030, the wind turbines installed prior to 2015 will need to be replaced. The energy will simply not be available -- it will not be available physically, economically, politically. That energy will need to be employed for the basics of life -- food production, transportation, heating / cooling and, because history demands it, the military. The globe will be littered with half a million rotting wind turbines -- a shockingly visible testimony to the exercised power, full-spectrum stupidity and conceit of the global ruling class. It will be both challenging and interesting to live through the next 20 years.

Solar and Wind requires more "processing" before the product comes out of a wall socket. One is at night solar out of the socket means storage or some additional energy source helping out 100%. When no wind, power out of the socket means storage or some other equipment producing the electricity at that moment. As this other equipment has to be added in a real life grid, solar and wind are expensive systems. Or you have to admit incomplete or unfit to feed a household socket where the demand is 100% continuous.

If you suddenly add solar power some other energy source has to step down. When the sun is gone it has to step up. Intermittent energy sources does not provide much extra as continuous systems has to remain in place and can not be replaced.

I’m not sure why CO2 production is still even a topic of discussion. Spectral energy absorption in gases is quite well known, and it is a logarithmic function of both gas “thickness”, x, (in this case atmospheric depth) and CO2 density, p, (concentration). So energy absorption is E = A( 1 - be^cpx). The coefficient, c, is negative. So energy absorption maxes out at E = A as p -> infinity. So as CO2 concentration increase, it will no longer contribute to the greenhouse effect because it is already at maximum contribution. At 420ppm CO2 we are nearly at E = A, and further increases will contribute neglibly. The alarmists acknowledge this reality, but counter by claiming that the CO2 absorption spectrum broadens as temperature increases. This is true, but it is minimal. I think that CO2 heat capacity is proportional to 2kT. But T is in degrees Kelvin, not Celsius, so even a 2 degree increase is minimal. Using an atmospheric temperature of -72C, a 2 degree increase creates a 2/200 = 1% increase in absorption. Since CO2 contributes only 8% to the greenhouse effect, we are talking less than a 0.1% CO2 contribution to global warming. Are we really going to collapse the world economy, starve hundreds of millions (perhaps billions) in the process, for a 0.1% benefit? Edit: I didn’t look up the heat capacity relationship to akT for a three atom linear molecule, but it’s not relevant since it cancels out when comparing new to old heat capacities, and it becomes strictly a function of absolute temperature. So when I wrote “I think”, I wasn’t claiming a personal opinion, I was stating I was guessing at the coefficient in the heat capacity equation.

Australia is a massive island with tide and currents surrounding it that are on 27/7/365. that will give base load electrical energy with little to no pollution once installed. It is only the technology that needs to be perfected & commercialized to make this a reality! This is especially significant for Australia as 90+% of the population live close to the coast!

"Basically, common sense..." OR, it's intentional. There are too many unelected supranational organisations (i.e., the UN, WEF, World Bank, publicly and privately-owned multinationals, etc) that are pushing this and, in effect, directing national policies in the West, for it to be simply a lack of commonsense. I'm only prepared to accept so much stupidity re. 'green' issues, covid, transgenderism etc before I say... "intentional and coordinated".

Net zero is a disaster, I'm in favour of reducing pollution in the air, seas and land. But telling farmers they can't farm beef because cows fart is insane. Mankind needs to reduce the energy they use but forcing net zero will cause real problems for the poorest in society in every country, except China and Russia two of the largest carbon producers

@@wheel-man5319 You might not understand much about the Electricity Generation Industry? Typical Nukes are very flat generation. But most areas have daily "peaks" of use or demand, so you are better off having generation that can ramp up or naturally hit the peak demand with production that is aligned with that use. In most areas the peak use is during the day, so New Solar is the better mix to add to to most Grids.

Energy bills increase because of profiteering. Energy suppliers all want to maximise profits, and any excuse to push up prices will do.
@ashleyKennedy5

Funny but my energy bills went down when I installed solar panels. Payback period is 6 years, lifetime of panels 30 years. In profit 24 years. The scam is by the big energy corporate monopoly, which is being broken by installing your own renewables. If every domestic housing newbuild had solar panels installed 16 gas fired power stations could be closed every 5 years. That would replace the reliance on cheap imported gas and reliance on expensive imported North American gas.

We still have a serious problem with energy storage. You can't close power stations down that are needed "whenever" because of the intermittence of most renewables. Reducing massively the consummation of fossil fuels is one thing, but closing them down is another.

@@robinhood4640 Battery storage, hydrogen storage, lift pumps for water storage. For my solar panels I use battery storage. Renewables is the cheapest form of energy production. The problem is forms of contract that slant energy production towards expensive forms of energy production. Base load is best served by battery storage when renewables can over produce to top up batteries. Battery farms are also more efficient at balancing a power grid.

@@williamgoode9114 Take away fossil fuel use and add solar use, take away power stations that don't need to be built which incidentally is more expensive than the energy required to make panels and is also less strenuous on the grid so the grid requires less maintenance and lasts longer.

Wind farms and solar farms have run their race and will not proceed as it has been determined the astronomical costs are not sustainable. An intermittent form of energy as the main component is unacceptable to industry and the population at large. The shelf life of solar and wind infrastructure is short term and replacement is cost prohibitive. Nuclear is a good option as well. Here's a small sample of how many coal plants there are in the world today. I could go into using the advanced technology of thermally efficient, supercritical steam generators using our own world's best metallurgical coal; but what's the point, it is treated as hearsay and political hyperbole here in Oz. The EU has 468 plants, building 27 more for a total of 495. They tell everyone else it's their responsibility to 'Save The Planet' from Climate Change, typical Europeans; morals are a philosophy, honesty is a heresy! Turkey has 56 plants, building 93 more, total 149 South Africa has 79, building 24 more, total 103 India has 589, building 446 more, total 1036 The Philippines has 19, building 60 more, total 79 South Korea has 58, building 26 more, total 84 Japan has 90, building 45 more, total 135 AND CHINA has 2363, building 1171, total 3534 And our AUSTRALIAN politicians are going to shut down our 6 remaining plants and save the planet.
