Any chance of removing those "--"? When you top post anything below
your sig gets removed and your posts start looking like those of
Homeowners club, ie without context.

The issue there is no incentive to have any over capacity. Generating
plant costs capital, and if it lies unused it doesn't recoup the
investment.

Plus there are disincentives to build any power-stations that burn
fossil fuel, or indeed any type of fuel.

In short we're doomed....

And the 'Greenies' still don't get that you can't rely on renewables!

I think they do, and the alternative is a worse consequence.

As it is, cost per unit to industrial customers is dependent on whether
they can be switched off.

I expect there to be more load shedding in the near future. Whether that
extends to domestic premises we'll see.

That's why they want us to have smart meters!
