CiderHider Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Get used to it I'm afraid, the energy experts say they will become more frequent in the coming years. But they would say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will, trust me. I did twenty years before the mast in the electricity supply industry. Privatisation is a disaster waiting to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Privatisation is a disaster waiting to happen. b-b-but profit? Capitalism demands profit, by selling off the assets the Gov have less to do, plus when it goes tits up they can say HAHAHAH not our problem dipshits, deal with it! ..while they decide how to spend the coin on staying in power. \How long before they sell everything, there will be nothing left to govern? We will become pure capitalism and anything not making a profit will be destroyed because profit means everything is this pissing country now. Selling us down the river. Lazy ******* pointless government, power hungry lying deceitful backstabbing shits. Anyone who studies ppe should be banned from holding power, they are programmed to **** us over.

kevinmabbuttshair Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Just build more power stations. Oh but not in your back garden? Fine. You are here disconnected from the national grid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screech Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 When the governments around the world realise that money is not real and completely man made, I would hazard a guess things may improve for the better for everybody. Hippy rant over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Maesknoll Red Posted July 18, 2013 Admin Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Perfectly good power station at Didcot, now stood idle, whilst our capacity decreases and usage increases - you couldn't make it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely and utterly correct. It's burns coal you know. It is also a fantastic piece of engineering but don't worry about that build a solar farm in its place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foghornred Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Get used to power cuts as we will not produce enough soon because we are decommissioning nukes and building wind farms because someone thinks its good for the planet ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also a fantastic piece of engineering but don't worry about that build a solar farm in its place Cheaper to build a new one, the Japanese are begging us to let them build new plants. They are trying to spend and invest overseas, their yen is still too strong and they cant export enough, but anyways.. Thank God for Russian gas is all I can say, without it we are buggered. Power is international, if you dont have it or are unable to produce it... buy it elsewhere! A pretty good idea when you are skint and even if you do build one, its still more cost effective to buy power elsewhere, no capital investment makes a happy goverment, better to just suck from the Russians teet for another few years and let another cabinet take the risk. We need lots of new power supplies, solar, wind, tidal, nuclear, oil, gas, coal, peddle. There is no 1 power source, we need as many as we can as cheaply as we can, what we dont use we can sell. Solar and innovation of new tech should be encouraged and subsidised by the government, we need to invest in better tech to power us, find a cheaper alternative to fossil fuels. Wind power is not cheap, infact on paper its utterly ludicrous, most would need to be running a 100 years maintenance free before it even paid for itself. It makes no sense commercially, but it drives innovation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
