*benefits immediately gets spent on ‘prestige’ infrastructure project that ends up costing 5x the original estimate and incurs generations with long term maintenance costs, but simultaneously makes several people billionaires*
Of course, this won’t be used to offset the cost of energy bills, we will just carry on selling it on the international market, and buy it back at a higher rate, when the government hasn’t planned for our energy needs and passes those costs onto the consumer. The status quo won’t be changed, but it will make some shareholders richer at least.
