Full marks to Private Eye ( Keeping the lights on - No 1308) for exposing the current administration's total incompetence in all things related to energy, particularly the 'greenest' form of energy, that is, energy saving.
Using analysis carried out by the Association for the Conservation of Energy (ACE) 'Old Sparky' shows how the government prefers to squander money on subsidising PV and nuclear power stations totally ignoring its own data on the cost-effectiveness of conserving energy and the expense of nuclear power. The early promises by this government it would be the 'greenest' ever have not, and never will be, delivered.
It can only be supposed that all this talk was only old flannel designed to woo vaguely environmentally aware voters. A classic greenwash ploy.
Nuclear subs(idies) are revealed to be the leaky buckets they truly are, demanding vast quantities of public funds which disappear into a black hole for no tangible benefit to anyone but the recipients of the said funds.
