The current lines don’t have enough capacity to move the electricity at times of high generation or demand. There are other ways around that which doesn’t involve new wires, eg: regional pricing, which would encourage building energy intensive industries next to generation. 2025-12-12T12:08:36Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8yqg4tswx05g8za79adw0shfse0qx8cqsrgttdj2lcgn7tadld9gzyzqv5kw9cej7h0zfxk0d505m27nnnh0arwt3wd0g7dumwxf35fq07nnt2ys In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs07h6dmncym7tpafz09640r9rrh52g8xehrtcel4lpgutg4t86x0sn0r2r8'>nevent1q…r2r8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>For some reason we have far to many people sick and unable to work in the UK and the government wants to cut back on benefits paid to sick people.

In H1 2025, solar and wind produced more electricity globally than coal for the first time. Solar and wind also generated more electricity than the rise in global demand, meeting 109% of it. This led to a reduction in both coal (0.6%) and gas generation (0.2%) of electricity.
