The end of gas? 21:23 - May 18 with 7626 viewsCatullus

I'm not against the idea, we need to do everything we can to protect the planet but blooming heck look at the expected prices,

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/sci

£6000 to £18000.....it has to be very heavily subsidised because most of us juts couldn't afford it, surely!

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

It's relevant character assanation. They are charlatans.

I'm not necessarily disputing it. I don't see the relevance of the article, it's outdated now and will be irrelevant in future years.

The peaking plant that hasn't even started being built yet you mean because there is no demand? I've never said anything other than that we will need a back up for a considerable length of time.

I bet solar has had a good day. The tide has still ebbed and flooded and rivers still flow.

Yes Solar had a great day, for solar, a massive 8GW for an hour either side of lunch time when it is hardly needed and was virtually absent during peak periods.
Your love for intemittency shows you haven't got a clue how the national grid works or it's requirements for Base Load, Spinning Reserve and Frequency Control.
There is going to be no end to Gas in the UK, it is a Johnson pipe dream.
There is going to be no reduction in coal use in the next 30 years either.
The world can't run on expensive intermittency.

Now this is Green Energy I can really get behind, it has been in development for 40 years and is looking very good.
I am not sure yet what costs are involved, but it doesn't just create Base Load Electricity so it is very useful.
It is called Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC).
