Something which should have been in our strategic reviews YEARS ago

pornblock is boomer technology

it really is

it isn't gonna stop kids from seeing it

problem is all renewables except nuclear and hydro suck

at the moment at least.

Wind isn't that bad tbh

Moving us towards renewables is good anyway

For multiple reasons

in terms of kwh per dollar it is, admitedly it isn't the nightmare solar is

@ShardS while nuclear isn't renewable, you're not wrong

and has more room for improvement

And for wind and solar you will need new infrastructure which can store power for when the sun isn’t shining or the wind isn’t blowing

And the UK can be the hub for that improvement

@killerqwerty its reserves are so large it might as well be for the next few hundred lifetimes

As demand for Wind increases in the UK, the technology will be developed ideally by British firms to meet that demand

Win win.

Also, economies of scale applies.

wind energy honestly isnt all its cracked up to be...

Turbines will become cheaper as we use more of them

the pathway to carbon neutral should be fission into fusion.

Meme argument, it's not here yet. @killerqwerty

Keep investing in it sure

I cant imagine the winds will stop blowing in the seas around England

Don't depend on it

@Nathan James 123 that's why you start with fission

it can interfere with birds... the parts needed to build the wind turbines require fossil fuels...

All the bushes and trees in Cornwall are pointing the same way cos of all the wind

Over their lifetime, less carbon is emitted @UnScottable

in terms of kwh per dollar its nuclear fission (uranium), hydro electric ng, oil, coal, wind, nuclear fission (thorium, for now), and finally right at the bottom solar

maintaining them is a bitch and expensive... and also requires fossil fuels

they are noisy and just generally pretty lame yo

Significantly less than say, a coal plant

> The UK has 15 operational nuclear reactors at seven plants

Meaning we're less dependant on imports

Which from a strategic POV is very good

@Crafty are they power plants or breeder reactors though?

Foriegn companies and countries will have less influence / control over us
