Posted by: @transparent"With the transmission pipeline currently oversubscribed at more than 560GW – three times what is
needed to meet Britain’s net zero goals – there is huge uncertainty around what substations need
building and where."
Surely it is not beyond the capabilities of a government department to sit down with the relevant bodies to weed out the projects that are never going to get built, and then prioritise the rest in an order such that they do know what substations need building where and can make real progress towards rolling out that work at a national level. Or maybe I'm just an eternal optimist 😀
Samsung 12kW gen6 ASHP with 50L volumiser and all new large radiators. 3.645kWp solar (south facing), Fox ESS inverter.
Solar generation completely offsets ASHP usage annually. We no longer burn ~1600L of kerosene annually.
