Green energy is basically the equivalent of paying some people to dig holes and others to fill them in.
Before the recent publication of Miliband’s action plan, we had no real idea how he proposed to deliver his maniacal climate goals beyond some guff about creating GB Energy – a company that will not generate any energy at all but instead “invest in a new generation of renewable energy supply”. No one appears to have bothered modelling the impact on consumer bills of a green plan that, according to the National Energy System Operator (Neso), needs to raise £40 billion in investment a year, most of it from the private sector. Similarly, it has not been explained how we are to magically develop new carbon capture, storage and green hydrogen technologies within five years, or what contingency plan is in place for when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind doesn’t blow. (Spoiler alert: gas, imported from the US at great cost, because Miliband and Co won’t allow fracking, despite it giving us the “energy security” he craves.)
A GSE to invest is bolshevik for grifting. The lack of electricity is a not a problem to nihilists.
I couldn’t care less about Britain and its energy stupidity.
They long since pissed away Great.
Islam can have it.
And then it can be nuked.
You are heading the same effing way pal.
If by you, you mean Canada, agree totally.
He will get the 40 billion by stealing it from my pension contributions the slimy marxist twat.
You have an awful lot of pension contributions.
I would have retired at the first billion.
Following the failed example of Dolton McGuinty and his plan to transform the power system that just raised costs and deindustrialized portions of Ontario.
“…what contingency plan is in place for when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind doesn’t blow.”
They can stick their “green” energy where the sun doesn’t shine.
Well, sad, looks like Britian is toast.
My aunt was member of DBOE for anyone who recalls that. I inherited a number of patriotic framed needleponts her group did. In the war years and couple reference Churchill statements.
How far this nation has fallen, how it is being conquered without a shot fired.
Sad, but the new order and traitors within.
Oh well, it is what it is in 2024, sadly.
Climate change science fiction stories pay the best…
CO2 is not a problem but “green” energy sure as hell is.
