Onshore Wind Generation costs now at 3.3 cent per kw/h or less.

Also the IFS today says the equivalent of 'the uk government are a bunch of morons'.

Of the Tories, in them we bust.

With much of the ban om onshore now lifted, it looks likely there were election lies amongst the madness.

Meanwhile, the TUC thinks government policy is costing households £2,200 per year.
More calls for government ownership to own the future.

Conclusions ha e been drawn that we need state ownership/ investment.
It seems 50% is!

The comment from China is that green energy revolution is comparable to the 1980s IT revolution.

On a side note, Iran scientists have produced a high watt to kg zinc battery that appears to do 100,000+ charges. However the costs on the comple ity of using graphene are not documented.

I quite imagine fhe elusive graphene might do something similar to standard battery technology.

Lots and lots of onshore wind, I hope.
Personally I would have declared an emergency near invasion day, and got the army involved in building them.

Lets hope Blyth has other success on Saturday, it looking a bit spartan again.

Puzzling that here, the US wants cooperation yet with stuff like much technology they simply want embargos.
China is the most prolific country with regards to green energy. And considering their reputation is as the factory for the whole world, 30% of all emissions seems low.
If those produced goods were allocated to actual destination the totals would be interesting.

Near impossible to lose with costs at 40% of offshore wind. It will takeca longvwhile to remove that Tory burden though.

The way this reads is that EU orders for turbines are actually in decline. And compensating for what looks a typo, orders are only 10% per year of what it needs to reach energy climate goals.

Oh dear, so, we may not be the only Country falling down on our green objectives, who would have thought it?

Just in case anyone thought otherwise, I am not saying that is a good thing

Whilst most of it says 'think of the landscape' the headline emphasises the sheer cost of it. This is whilst ignoring the fact that offshore wind costs are 2.5 times the price of banned onshore wind.

Disinformation by selection. Ignoring the onshore scandal.

Comprehensive but scant mention of the costs. No mention of that onshore offshore cost differential very much seen in our massive bills.

 

[albion]

I doubt 3.3 cent is feasible now. However Scotland ones will be the closest to that price. In England tall efficient onshore turbines they are still banned.
On top of that there seems to a hint of an offshore cost crisis brewing.

On a positive, maybe Scotland does not need independence to escape the poverty and insanity of London governance.
