@EnglishTMTB why are you so anti cheap energy?

@EnglishTMTB it works because of batteries, I'm already getting an overnight rate of 13p instead of 24p It always blows somewhere round the uk due to the temperature missmatch between sea and land Nuclear takes 10 years + to build my solar + batteries took a day It's capital payback is < 6 years for me

@ Wind like Nuclear is always on You need to time shift consumption using storage. Your fundamental problem when arguing against renewables is that Capital costs are still falling as it is a new technology and The input energy into them is free Fossil is always subject to (extraction, processing & transportation costs) x Inflation and Nuclear escalating build costs x inflation. Renewables reached price parity in 2020 and the difference is only going 1 way. Did you know the government spent 72 billion on energy support in 2023, reason were tied to GAS.
