Re: The energy crisis

On a brighter note:

Quote:
The world's largest offshore wind farm is now fully operational, 55 miles off the coast of Yorkshire.

The Hornsea 2 project can generate enough electricity to power about 1.3 million homes - that's enough for a city the size of Manchester.

A decade ago renewables made up just 11% of the UK's energy mix. By 2021 it was 40%, with offshore wind the largest component.

Unfortunately the price of elecrictity is tied to the price of gas ATM so can't see it making much difference.
