The Cost of Going Green in Scotland
I was given a complimentary Scotsman on the sleeper, although I might have preferred a Scotswoman.
The headline of Going Green will push Scots fuel bills up £100 caught my eye.
The reason is that Alex Salmond wants to go to 100% of renewables by 2025. It may be a laudable aim, but to do it with just wind, wave and tidal is not in my view a good idea, as there is just so much back-up to provide. Especially, as nuclear will not be used for much longer in Scotland.
Let’s hope when the policy all goes pear-shaped that we don’t have to bail them out!
Bail us out !!!!! what a cheak as we Scots have been doing that for England for the last 40 years with our oil !!!!!
