To construct the base alone, a single small wind turbine requires the burning of 170 tons of coal just to make its steel components, namely the rebar. Then on top of that you have 140 cubic meters of concrete, this is just for the base remember, and of a... small turbine. It ignores the hundreds of tons of fiberglass, aluminum and copper that go into the turbine itself. You also have to consider that the majority of turbines standing today will need replacing before 2050, with the majority of those materials including the concrete for the base almost impossible to reuse. As governments continue to chase Net Zero, millions of wind turbines will be built just to replace the ones we already have - tearing up land, burning coal and pouring billions of tons of concrete. This is far from clean energy. It's a dirty illusion.show more

Compared with conventional technologies, wind power requires vastly more raw materials for the same installed capacity. Up to 15 times more concrete. 90 times more aluminum. And around 50 times more iron, copper and glass. Each 2 MW turbine uses about 1700 tons of material: Around 1300 tons of concrete. Nearly 300 tons of steel. Plus iron, fiberglass and copper. The foundation alone uses hundreds of tons of concrete. Concrete is one of the world's largest CO2 sources, responsible for 8% of global emissions. Then there are the rare earths. Just one ton of rare earth elements generates 2000 tons of toxic waste. Worse still, all of this ends up in landfill every 15 to 20 years, with the entire process then repeated. Wind is not the clean energy it is sold to be.

🚨 Wind is Not the Clean Energy it is Sold to be. Wind #energy has been sold to an unsuspecting public as a clean, renewable source of unending energy. But that isn't true. In fact, the building of an average wind industrial installation consumes vastly more CO2 producing raw materials per kwh than any other power source in use today. Ever wonder what really goes into building a wind turbine, its tower, and its foundation? This brief video does a great job of giving you the details, and they are neither pretty nor clean.

One gigawatt of wind capacity requires about 2,900 tons of copper. At a standard ore grade of 0.6%, 99.4% of the ore is not copper. Producing those 2,900 tons therefore requires processing roughly 480,000 tons of ore. That is about 1,200 full loads in a 400-ton-class mining truck. And it excludes the waste rock, overburden and processing losses. Count those and the total material moved can exceed 1 to 2 million tons. And that's before adding the steel, concrete, fiberglass and other materials required by the wind project. The "green" turbine does not begin with the wind. It begins with a mountain being blasted, hauled and crushed.

It would take 3.7 trillion pounds of materials to generate half of U.S. electricity with 1,095,000 2 MW wind turbines. Each turbine requires 1,671 tons of material: 1,300 tons concrete, 295 tons steel, 48 tons iron, 24 tons fiberglass, 4 tons copper, 0.4 tons neodymium, and 0.065 tons dysprosium, replaced every 15-20 years. Mining and ore processing, is the second most polluting industry in the world, releasing acid rain and heavy metals into land, water, and air. Extracting and processing dispersed minerals consumes significant fossil fuel energy. Billions more tons of materials are needed for transmission, power plants, and utility-scale batteries, also replaced every 15-20 years. The green energy dream remains just that—a dream.

The talk around Net Zero ignores many inconvenient facts, but top of the list is probably the mining requirements to get us there. For the world to reach Net Zero by 2050--that is, to build the solar panels and wind turbines required--we'd need to mine over 4.5 billion tons of copper, 940 million tons of nickel, 9 billion tons of graphite and 4 million tons of germanium. At today's mining rates that would take more than a thousand years. Net Zero is nigh on impossible to achieve. And even attempting to do so will ravage vast areas of the planet.

Trillions of dollars are being poured into wind and solar. But these technologies are far from green. Each turbine requires hundreds of tons of steel, concrete, and rare earths. Each solar panel relies on energy-intensive mining and toxic chemical processing. Scaling this up to replace fossil fuels would mean billions of tons of new mining, scarred landscapes, and enormous fossil energy inputs just to manufacture the equipment. At the current pace, even with the trillions invested, the world wouldn't hit 100% renewables until the year 2392. In reality, the 'renewable revolution' is astronomically expensive, painfully slow, and environmentally destructive.

WIND TURBINES - The truth isn’t clean or green. This was once to be a beautiful lake, now it’s just hundreds of km of toxic sludge … after mining rare earth Neodymium. A 2 MW wind turbine is made up of: ▪️260 tons of steel requiring ▪️300 tons of iron ore ▪️170 tons of coking coal ▪️ rare earths including Praseodymium (Pr), Neodymium (Nd), Terbium (Tb), and Dysprosium (Dy) ▪️fibre glass ▪️resin ▪️plastic ▪️aluminium …. all mined & produced using hydrocarbons. And all leaving a trail of destruction as they are mined, extracted and manufactured. So we can pretend we’ve saved the planet 🤡

An estimated 40 million tons of wind turbine blades will end up in landfills by 2050. Each modern blade weighs around 10 to 15 tons--mostly fiberglass and epoxy composites with 1 to 2 tons of carbon fiber, balsa and foam, plus roughly a ton of steel and copper for structural support and lightning protection. All mined, smelted and transported using fossil fuels. Then once they wear out, after just 15 years, those complex materials are almost impossible to recycle, so most are simply buried. It's another hidden cost of green energy and the complete opposite of sustainable.

Wind and solar are sold as clean and sustainable, but eventually the hardware becomes waste. The US currently has 76,000 wind turbines and 650 million solar panels installed. The turbine blades alone represent 5.5 million tons of eventual waste. Existing US solar panels represent another 18 million tons. Unlike conventional power plants that can operate for 50 to 80 years or more, wind turbines and solar panels require replacement after 15 to 20 years (shorter by some studies). By 2050, cumulative global waste is projected to reach 200 million tons of wind turbine blades and 78 million tons of solar panels. Turbine blades are nigh on impossible to recycle. Solar panels are technically easier, but recovering many embedded materials is often expensive and uneconomic. Much of it ultimately faces the same destination: landfill. Wind and solar are labelled renewable, but there's nothing renewable about them.

“Work has been suspended at a major wind farm project south west of Warwick after storms snapped a wind turbine blade. McIntrye Wind Farm recently connected some of its turbines to the grid, those works are on hold as it investigates the incident.” “The 458MW Coopers Gap wind farm in south west Queensland, the newest and biggest wind project built to date in Australia – is to undergo major repairs after faults were found in its commissioning process. AGL, which operates the $850 million project and is a joint owner through the Powering Australia Renewables Fund, said in a statement that the blades of one of the 123 turbines will have to be replaced entirely, while GE Catcon is also going to replace “generators” – referring to the equipment in the nacelle at the top of the wind tower – in a further 50 turbines.” •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Not only are wind farms unreliable in terms of wind dependent generation. They break easily as we saw last week on the Darling Downs. If the blades on a wind farm can’t survive a summer storm on the Darling Downs they will be useless. This is just another example of wind farms being unreliable. A few years ago wind farm had to replace 50 out of 123 turbines just after it was commissioned. Australia cannot not afford to be pursuing Net Zero policies being pushed by the two major parties. We should focus on using our coal, uranium and gas resources instead of imported materials.

A person who services a wind turbine or a “Wind Technician,” makes 20K a month. Once a month, he climbs to the top of each turbine and takes care of the sensors on top. It takes a half an hour on a small elevator to get to the top. Each technician wears harnesses for protection. The money involved in these turbines is insane.

By 2050, the world is forecast to face 43 million tons of decommissioned wind turbine blades. These blades are built from high-strength composites made to survive years of weathering. Still, every single turbine standing today will age out before 2050. Most are difficult to recycle, so most are likely to be buried. But Europe now has a landfill ban for blades coming into force. Nations like Germany, Finland and the Netherlands are already blocking landfills. But they still have blades to dispose of. So the waste is pushed elsewhere. Blades are exported to countries where burial is still allowed, such as the UK. Net zero creates a mountain of composite waste. And then has the audacity to call it green.

Breaking News🇬🇧⚡️: "Labour will create jobs in wind turbine production for my area and the rest of the UK". Watch the incredulous Labour MP Mel Ward tell Camilla Tominey that Red Ed Miliband is 'Pro-Oil and North Sea gas' as a fossil fuel resource and that thousands of 'clean energy jobs' will be invented when done are available after 20 years of the climate scam. Point of order - wind turbines are not 'clean', they are either made by fossil fuels or rely 100% on coke. The 'net-zero' lunatics will argue that Electric Arc Furnace While Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs) primarily run on electricity, the national grid that powers them often relies on fossil fuels unless utilizing renewable energy sources. Furthermore, EAF operations directly consume supplementary fossil fuels, such as natural gas for preheating and coal or coke as carbon sources According to a report from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory - depending on make and model wind turbines are predominantly made of steel (66-79% of total turbine mass); fiberglass, resin or plastic (11-16%); iron or cast iron (5-17%); copper (1%); and aluminum (0-2%). There are currently zero major Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) producing full offshore wind turbines directly based in the UK. The global offshore turbine market is heavily consolidated, and the UK relies on a few major international manufacturers to supply its offshore wind farms. Spinning their way out of the 'climate scam' - not on our watch.
