Ripped Off: How UK Homeowners Are Paying Gas Prices for Wind Energy
Posted by: @toodles@jeff I am very sorry, but with my very limited sight, that report is definitely TL and therefore, I DR, would anyone care to waste their valuable time reading it and provide a brief summary here please? I would be most grateful! Regards, Toodles. (Are Government reports financed by their word count I wonder?)
Sure.
Basically:
1. Zonal wholesale pricing isn't going ahead. Too much risk. I won't dwell on the points as it is what it is now, no zonal wholesale pricing
2. There are going to be changes behind the scenes regarding connection and network costs to encourage generation and storage to be located where it is needed rather than the rather ad hoc approach
3. There is going to be a new Strategic Spatial Energy Plan (SSEP) again to get storage and generation in the right location.
4. Continued investment in wires to get electricity moved around the country.
4. There is going to be further work on potential Power Purchase agreements to encourage new data centers etc to be located where there is excess electricity.
There are some other points but that is basically it.
@jeff Many, Many thanks Jeff, that is far easier to read! I hope they can manage to cause Data Centre plans to evolve around ‘power plenty’ areas - it makes such good sense! OE’s. Greg Jackson will be disappointed about no zonal pricing though. Regards, Toodles.
Toodles, he heats his home with cold draughts and cooks his food with magnets.
