Default Energy prices to rise?

Brian Gaff wrote

Judging by several radio and tv documentaries recently, the government
needs to actually allow renewable the same terms as Nuclear has been given
or nobody is going to invest in tidal schemes


And those shouldn’t be invested in, because they are stupid
and **** the environment very comprehensively indeed.
Complete waste of money and just jack up the price of electricity.

or any new ventures or even torage development.


That shouldn’t happen either unless they
are viable without govt encouragement.

One cannot surely have one law for one and another for the rest.


Even sillier than you usually manage. What matters is
what makes sense power generation wise for the country.

It will end in undercapacity


Not if enough nuclear power generation is encouraged.

and we will miss our carbon reduction targets by miles


Not if enough nuclear power generation is encouraged.

and have to buy in expensive power from what will be, by then outside of
our borders ie the eu.


Not if enough nuclear power generation is encouraged.

There seems to be a lot of fuzzy thinking going on in the energy
department.


You're doing that yourself.

yes it is going to cost more as this subsidy will in the end, end but
really, in order to keep energy security, we now have to build more tidal
and other renewable systems,


Nope, more nukes.

as often they can bebrought on line faster than Nuclear


Makes more sense to bring on nukes faster.

or most other carbon generating gas systems.


Nukes don’t do that.
