Good News?
Much to this blogger's surprise the Government has chosen the sites for 8 nuclear power stations. Will they be built in time though to ensure 'energy security'? The building of coal fired power stations will also go ahead once the system to capture the CO2 emissions and store them underground has been worked out. Will the new capture and storage technology be ready in time though and what happens if it isn't? The tidal energy scheme across the Severn has been dropped mainly because of its expense but further wind farms are to be built. What stupidity. It is odd though that neither the nuclear power stations nor the coal powered ones are to be subsidised but the wind farms will be. One wonders why. The answer to that question will be at the end of the money trail!
