So the government is going to backtrack on onshore wind farms due to anti-net zero mob and landowners. The big hope is nuclear energy but there are problems with this strategy. Firstly the time lag before a station comes on line is about 15 years. Secondly the cost spirals upward as delays and problems occur. Thirdly the waste problem has been forgotten, not solved. So whilst nuclear probably has a place in the future mix is should not be a large one.
Wind, solar and batteries have come down in cost by between 50-85%. and could fall further. Renewable energy is 100% likely to be far cheaper than nuclear, faster to instal and greener. We have moved through different ages from the wood age, to charcoal, to coal, to gas and the future is the electric age. Most of us have at least 20 electric powered goods in the house requiring plus or batteries excluding lighting and heating.
