>Its ambitious targets include ramping up solar power from 14GW to 70GW by 2035 and boosting offshore wind from 11GW of assets to 50GW by the end of the decade – alongside an ambition to reach 10GW of hydrogen over the same time period.
The wind goal is already delusional enough but the solar target is just mind boggling. I hope to god no-one follows through with this. What a gargantuan waste of time and resources. Who comes up with this nonsense?
Anyone who’s involved in the national grid, know that balancing the base loads with switchable and non switchable Power sources is a complete and utter ball ache.
Grid are the main force pushing for these rolls Royce drop in nuclear power stations.
Not sure what is going to happen to all the renewable systems.
