motives and donors lead to conditions and infrastructure
wind has less reptile fund cash than fossil
until the current torykipper rule is ended there is no point in trying to "go for the green crap" even if it would be better and cost the consumer less if sale price is based on harvest costs.
i recon folk with vote with how much the leccy bill is and can i see a GP/consultant?etc
the culture war thing fails when the "cultured" fail to provide basic things folk expect on multiple spreadsheets,
lies fail when reality says hello at a personal level, be that poverty then and poverty now or a polluted beck in the nice village

It's basically totally open corruption, but not a surprise as open corruption has been the standard for years now.
Both onshore and offshore wind being blocked by people with open links to fossil fuel companies.
It seems odd that the lower cost methods like solar are paid the same amount as more costly things like offshore wind. From what I have read (only in the papers), solar is a very nice profitable business at the moment. It does seem stupid not to encourage all forms of renewable energy where possible as we need to get away from gas and oil electricity generation.
They talk of geothermal as something new; apart from the pre-Roman use of a hot spring at Bath, there has been at least one thermal generation project going for over 50 years.

yep, same as various other places and from various other vested interests re taxation, procurement, permissions, bragging schemes that only profit donors and cronies, privatizations etc.
not always direct cash, the revolving doors from gov to boardrooms and lobbies is also a large corrupting factor.
then there is the conflict of interests stuff with investment players and insider dealing by combining playing the markets with political decisions, leave night and truss/kwartang spring to mind
then there are the personally corrupt ones who are open to leverage regarding their affairs and are blatantly using their position to protect/develop their interests
Reading up on it a while ago when this came up, hydrogen may be the way forward, but at present it isn't main stream. Of course we could go back to charcoal, but it needs an awful lot of charcoal.
