    The government is doing so much to harm the move to clean solutions for electrical energy.

    • They cancelled the feed in tariff and now at best you can get about 1/3, most energy companies give you 1p for something they can sell for 35p. There is no net metering which would seriously help home energy projects for solar and wind without the need for expensive batteries.
    • There is around 5x the countries current energy needs in solar projects waiting on the National Grid to make it possible for the projects to go ahead. The queue goes out to 2035 and there is no extra investment coming to try and make this happen earlier. These alone could be enough to completely transition all electrical energy to solar.

    The entire transition is being intentionally slowed down by government, they wont invest in it and instead are trying to build as many barriers as possible. Its becoming very difficult to build energy projects that aren’t gas on a personal or business level.
