Siemens Chairman Says the Quiet Part Out Loud, and it is Glorious

In case you hadn’t figured it out already, the wind industry sits atop a throne made up of lies, obfuscations, and broken promises. For many years the industry has falsely claimed it is a reliable provider of predictable energy, that it can be adopted without causing utility bills to skyrocket, and that it is in fact the least expensive form of power generation.

None of those claims are true, of course, and now it appears that Joe Kaeser, chairman of big German wind turbine-maker Siemens Energy AG, has decided to become something of a truth-teller about it all. A recent story published by The Telegraph headlined, “Energy bills must rise to pay for net zero, says Siemens Energy boss,” details some pretty blunt bits of truth coming from Mr. Kaeser.
