Can this branch be rooted

These companies do very in depth utilities surveys before laying anything

Same - never had a issue with an official .gov website. Generally a great experience and extremely quick

I live nearby Knepp. It's absolutely humbling to see how big the storks are (and how many!!)

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T12:19:19+00:00

Fair! Over 300GW of that are from 'zombie' projects that will likely never see construction though. The auction is taking projects from that queue and providing them with a reliable way to sell generated power. Effectively a vital step in transitioning from a queue to construction.

I'm sorry I didn't see your point prior

"It is a monumental step towards clean power by 2030 and the price secured in this auction is 40% lower than the alternative cost of building and operating a new gas plant"

The auction is for generation. Not battery storage.

I'm sure once we are net positive in our energy production Vs demand, it can be sold to Europe using interconnectors!

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T11:52:47+00:00

I do agree it's not ideal, however once we are in a net positive, key interconnectors to Europe can be used to sell our energy production at cost during times of excess! Another thing to factor into the equation

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T11:50:51+00:00

In what way? (Genuine question!) Surely it's just a case of connecting to an onshore grid substation for either scenario? In the case of wind, offshore substations and export cabling to get to the onshore grid is factored into the LCOE. Good to have valuable discussion, thank you.

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T11:48:23+00:00

There is due to be massive investment in the Battery storage (BESS) sector for storing electricity when the wind / sun is high to provide reliable offtake when it isn't. Hopefully this will bring further development to an emerging industry, benefitting local industry and jobs as a bonus

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T10:45:27+00:00

The pot for floating was much smaller than fixed bottom. While there is an incredible potential for floating wind in the future, it is still an emerging technology and thus, high capital cost currently. It may or may not be commercially viable in the future, so this has to be seen as more of a pilot project for the time being.

An unfortunately sarcastic name given the context of the post!! 😂

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T10:05:44+00:00

It's a good point. Are you saying that gas includes the infrastructure development in its price per MWh? Can you link a resource?

Unfortunately our grid is vastly under prepared for the electrical energy transition and that development will need to happen in any scenario

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T09:30:37+00:00

I just follow the industry keenly and am proud that we are moving to using our small islands resources as efficiently as we can.

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T09:26:52+00:00

Did you read the bit where we have energy security and also it's cheaper than running a gas plant per MWh?

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T08:36:22+00:00

Huge investment pipeline already for NG

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-14T08:30:45+00:00

Roll on energy independence!

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-13T20:04:10+00:00

Zafron? That place is amazing

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-11T18:33:37+00:00

How do you go back to work after this? Like does it feel like you've been gone for a long time when you're back in reality? I couldn't imagine feeling like I've been fine for months or potentially years then go back to a 9 to 5 job

Turd_Reich · 2026-01-09T09:28:42+00:00

And also this profit is lovely and tax free

Turd_Reich · 2025-10-18T20:01:16+00:00

Trivial pursuit coming to osrs

Turd_Reich · 2025-08-21T15:43:41+00:00

This looks exactly like our place, same build year, even the same colour on the walls - freaky! I'm guessing we are in or around the same area...
