From NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

By Paul Homewood

For years, Net Zero was something in the far distant future. Politicians could make all sorts of vague promises and set targets, in the knowledge that their successors would actually have to pay for it all.

Now, quite suddenly, it has all become more more immediate. Sure, 2050 is still a long way away, but 2030 is not. And according to all of the plans and targets, that is when major changes to our energy system need to be taking place.

Dieter Helm destroys the simplistic arguments of both major parties, that we just need to build more wind and solar farms. The UK’s energy infrastructure simply is not up to the job of transitioning to Net Zero, yet no politician is prepared to tell the public the truth about how much this will all cost.

Net zero electricity by 2030, or even 2035 – not without a radical change to the UK's electricity systems, and at a much higher cost than our leaders tell us.
