1st off if you don't own the Utilities the only method of getting policy through is with grants and taxation Gas is cheap up front costly long term Wind is expensive in infrastructure up front costs cheaper long term So called Green taxes penalise fossil generation to promote cleaner alternatives the money raised is less than 2 billion which is the same as Sunak's budget tax cut for bankers. There is currently plenty of capacity on the grid the issue with EV'S and structural changes to energy is load balancing this year alone Hinkley C will come on stream with capacity to supply 7% of the UK domestic electricity and Dogger Bank wind 5%. You can save vast amounts of energy using the EV'S themselves to do localised load balancing using smart meters and vehicle to grid technology. Heat pump technology is not here yet and is also unsuitable for 99% of uk homes Vacuums are all going cordless with inivotive designs to make them highly efficient and using a fraction of the power needed for a corded version As an aside Dogger bank forward contract price is £40 per kilowatt hour Hinkley C £92 and current OffGem price is 200+ with fossil in the mix if you want to fetch the price down quickly insulate the 19 million sub par homes which will instantly reduce the demand causing the market price to fall
