Net Zero Watch welcomes the admission by Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch that the 2050 decarbonisation target was ‘a mistake’ and that it was put in place without any plan to deliver it.
This new position will undoubtedly lead to speculation that the party is about to adopt a radically different climate and energy policy.
What a pity it has taken so long for them to realise this. Still it is a welcome change.
Much talk lately about the near blackout in Britain recently. How surprising:)
ReplyDeleteThis all needs to be exposed and explained to the general public, however it is a secondary problem along with everything else that is going wrong like the price and the stability of the current.
The fundamental problem, the Original Sin you might say, was the failure of the meteorologists to tell us about wind droughts/Dunkelflautes and the failure of the architects of the transition to windpower to plan for the worst case scenario in the wind supply, namely low winds for several days in succession or even weeks.

These two failures demand an explanation.
Everything else that is going wrong follows as night follows day from the original blunders but I do not see this being put about even by conservative commentators who should be the first and most outspoken about it.
Nothing can improve as long as the subsidies and mandates for unreliable energy are in place. Fix that or die.
