    "Britain’s Energy Gap

    By 2015, it is possible that the UK will face electricity shortages, as old power stations go ‘off-line’ before their replacements are ready.

    To help prevent such an energy gap emerging, plans are in place to build another seven coal-fired stations, delivering an additional 10 – 12 GW, despite the fact that coal is the dirtiest of fossil fuels.

    The much talked-about next generation of nuclear power stations, if built at all, will take somewhere between 12 and 20 years to build, so won't be producing full power until the late 2020s. Renewables, perhaps including the Severn Barrage, could be making electricity faster, perhaps producing as much as 40% of our electricity needs by 2020, but enormous challenges need to be overcome, including planning and grid connection constraints, financial incentives for developers, and the supply chains for materials, equipment and skilled engineers."

    The last house I bought in Manchester had heaps of glass in it and had a southerly aspect such that the house had the sun flooding into it it all day long (on a sunny day of course ). Yet many buy houses with a northerly aspect and get no sun whatsoever.....
