Check out the thread above.
3. On the calm morning of “Dunkelflaute” Wednesday this week just 1 per cent of our electricity came from wind power, even less from solar and a whopping 10 per cent had to be imported at exorbitant cost to prevent the lights going out. How’s that for “energy security”?
6. Jim Ratcliffe, the boss of Ineos, said on 13 January: “We are witnessing the extinction of one of our major industries as chemical manufacture has the life squeezed out of it” by high energy prices. De-industrialising Britain, he added, achieves nothing for the environment and merely shifts emissions, business and jobs elsewhere.
He’s not wrong but turn on the BBC and you get commentators/guests who are saying it actually helps the UK, develops new jobs and all this nonsense.
Sometimes it’s like living in a parallel universe the elite are disconnected completely.
They will rue the day!
It will be interesting when the lights go off last time I looked the “grid” was at 90 odd percent capacity and it’s getting worse so sooner or later we go dark
