Last week, I came across a government database that I had not heard of before, namely the Subsidy Control Transparency Database. The database was mentioned in an update email from DESNZ, telling me that the results of the Contracts for Difference Allocation Round 6 (AR6) had been loaded on to it. Of course, my curiosity got the better of me and I had to dig in to see what other Net Zero and energy related subsidies might be lurking within.
In the film Whisky Galore, the SS Cabinet Minister runs aground and its cargo of whisky is harvested by the locals. Our cabinet ministers have yet to run aground, but there are plenty of people eager to harvest the subsidies on offer. Over the past two years, I have come across some egregious things in Net Zero world, but even I was shocked by some of the scale of some of the subsidy schemes that have been implemented.
Subsidy Control Transparency Database
Before we dig into the Net Zero and energy related items, we should note some important caveats about the whole database. First, for subsidies recorded as part of the Contract for Difference Scheme (CfD), the government claims the amounts are a “higher end estimate”. Second, it appears as though there are some duplicate entries, for instance SC10301 and SC10069 are both support measures for the development of film audiences, in the sum of £60 million with identical start dates. Finally, the budget amounts might be suspect because the most expensive subsidy line is SC1005, U.K. Film Tax Relief Prolongation which is supposed to cost £2,960 billion, that’s more than U.K. GDP, between April 2020 and April 2025. It is very unlikely that this figure is accurate and so it calls into question the accuracy of other entries in the database.
Of the 1,169 schemes in the database, 1,025 of them have active status. Of these, I judged 144 of them to be Net Zero or energy-related. The total budget for these items is £328 billion – yes, billion, with a ‘b’.
However, there are two items related to the Renewables Obligation Scheme, items SC11007 and SC10753, that have budget values of £1 and £0 respectively. This suggests the budget is understated by a considerable margin, as the OBR forecasts that the RO scheme will cost well over £7 biilion per year for the next few years. The RO scheme has been running for quite some time, so the cumulative subsidies by the end of the scheme must be measured in the high tens of billions, possibly over £100 billion.
There are so many schemes that it is difficult to cover them all here, so we will focus on the largest items and highlight some of the most grotesque absurdities.
Electricity Generation Subsidies
The largest cluster of subsidies is for generating electricity. This includes Contracts for Difference (CfDs), Feed-in Tariffs (FiTs) and ROs. The budget value for CfDs allocated in Allocation Round 6 (AR6), item SC11117, will cost £45 billion over its lifetime. CfDs from AR5 will cost £5 billion, AR4 will cost £15 billion and CfDs from earlier rounds another £15 billion. Some individual offshore wind farms are listed, such as Hornsea (£3.4 billion), Walney (£2.1 billion) and Beatrice (£1.9 billion). Wind energy on remote islands is scheduled to receive £15 billion of subsidies between October 2017 and March 2025. FiTs are calculated to cost £31 billion (item SC10220).
Subsidies to Mitigate Intermittent Renewables
As well as being expensive, wind and solar renewables are, of course, intermittent, so we need to pay for backup when the sun is not shining and the wind is not blowing – or blowing too hard. The Government has created the Capacity Market to provide the backup, but it too will require a subsidy estimated at £16.1 billion up to mid-December 2024. They obviously need to update this figure, as the OBR forecasts that the annual cost of the Capacity Market will rise from approximately £1 billion in 2023–24 to £4 billion by 2027–28. The total forecast from 2023–24 to 2029–30 is over £19 billion.
There’s even a £14 million subsidy scheme (SC10810) to “support innovative technologies with potential to mitigate impacts of offshore wind farms on U.K. Air Defence”.
Subsidies for Using Expensive Electricity
The largest single energy-related item with the highest value is the British Industry Supercharger Package for energy-intensive industries (EIIs) (Item SC11062), with a value of £51 billion. This is designed to provide “electricity price support” to around 370 energy-intensive businesses in sectors such as steel, paper and batteries. There is another £936 million for the Energy Bills Discount Scheme, again targeted at EIIs.
We have a total of £87.4 billion in subsidies for CfDs, another £31 billion for Feed-in Tariffs, £15 billion for remote island wind plus a very large but unknown amount of subsidies for Renewables Obligations, which are, of course, making our electricity very expensive. On top of that, there is well over £16 billion for the capacity market. To compensate for that, we are going to spend £52 billion supporting energy-intensive industries. It is simply an absurd government merry-go-round of subsidy upon subsidy in a vain attempt to mitigate our insane energy policy.
We pay for more than 4,500 people in DESNZ, at a cost of over £400 million per year, many of them to devise these parasitic schemes that are destroying the economy.
Subsidies for Biofuels
In addition to the subsidies for electricity generation, there is an insane total of £45 billion allocated to various Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) schemes (Items SC10126, SC10120 and SC10119), which essentially incentivise farmers to burn wood to heat empty sheds out to 2040.
There is also another £2 billion for green gas and a further £1.1 billion for the Teesside CHP biomass plant.
Subsidies to Make Electricity Generation Less Efficient
But the madness does not stop there, because another £30 billion of subsidy has been allocated to the Dispatchable Power Agreement Business Model (Item SC11175), designed to support gas-fired power stations by incentivising the installation of carbon capture and storage (CCUS) equipment. There is another £13 billion to be spent on other CCUS-related subsidies and £2.5 billion more for various hydrogen subsidy schemes.
Subsidies to Transform Society
A total of £1.28 billion has been allocated to transforming the automotive industry to deliver an electrified supply chain and a further £289 million for the Industrial Energy Transformation Fund (IETF).
Several other items relate to decarbonising heat in social housing, worth a total of £2.1 billion and a further £450 million for boiler upgrade schemes. These schemes are designed to implement the same types of measures that the Government DEEP report calculated would have payback times measured in centuries or millennia.
On top of all that, there is another £567 million subsidy for various ultra-low emissions bus projects.
Subsides for Reliable Energy
In contrast to the hundreds of billions to be spent subsidising low-density, intermittent power sources like wind and solar, £409 million (with an ‘m’) will be spent on various nuclear research and development projects. They have also calculated that the Hinkley Point C nuclear power plant will only cost £130 million, which is an anomalously low figure, since they are projecting spending of almost £8 billion on Sizewell C. Even that figure pales into insignificance compared to the various forms of renewable subsidies.
Conclusions
We must exercise some caution when drawing conclusions because of the obvious howlers in the data. Of course, we are not going to spend £2,960 billion on tax relief for the film industry. However, when it comes to the energy-related items, it does appear as though the mistakes tend to underestimate the cost of subsidies. The RO scheme will obviously cost much more than £1, and the Capacity Market will cost more than £16 billion.
We see a truly surreal arrangement of subsidy schemes, ploughing hundreds of billions into renewables, alongside additional tens of billions in subsidies to industry to mitigate the impact of the resulting high energy prices. It is completely insane. All this renewable energy largesse contrasts markedly with just £24.6 million allocated to the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust, mostly capital funding for housing.
Imagine what society would look like if we stopped subsidising incompetent and expensive forms of energy and their parasitic cheerleaders. Bills would be lower, taxes could be lower and more companies would have the confidence to invest in Britain and create jobs. Expensive energy and the accompanying subsidies are killing the economy. We must ditch the Net Zero madness now.

A novel way to gain refugee status. If this guy trains hard he won’t need a dinghy to cross the Channel;
”Many of the African athletes who participated in the Paris Olympics and Paralympic Games last summer did not bother to return home, instead disappearing into France and Belgium.
There is speculation that dozens of such cases occurred after the games, with many of them refusing to join their delegations back home.
Among the athletes who remained in Europe is 24-year-old Aristote Ndombe Impelenga, the Congolese swimmer, who specializes in the 50m crawl. He is living in western France and reportedly wants to compete in the Los Angeles Olympic Games as a part of the Olympic refugee team.
The athlete, who is the former DRC champion in the 50m crawl and 100m crawl, is openly staying in Rennes, where he is currently training Monday through Friday.”

”John “Paddy” Hemingway, the last surviving pilot of the iconic Battle of Britain, passed away peacefully on 17 March 2025 at the age of 105.
Paddy Hemingway, one of a number known as ‘the Few’ and revered figures in British aviation history, played a crucial role in defending the United Kingdom against Nazi oppression during the summer of 1940. His courage in the face of overwhelming odds demonstrated his sense of duty and the importance of British resilience.”

Paul Weston speaking truth again;
”Can the electoral process / democracy save England from a probable Third World / Islamic future at worst, or a Globalist ruled tyranny at best?
My gut feeling says no, it cannot. There are three reasons for this:
1) Demographics mean the native English will soon be relegated to a minority voting bloc.
2) The majority of the English remain blissfully unaware (read pig-ignorant) about the forces (Globalist native traitors & foreign supremacists) arraigned against them.
3) Time is rapidly running out. In the mid-term (2040-2050) an Islamic Party could well come to power. In the short term (2029-2035) we have to compete against the Globalist backed UN Agenda 2030 / The Great Reset. These are real, and the powerful people behind them are deadly serious about tyrannical control centred around Net Zero and government Controlled Central Bank Digital Currency.
I suspect the sleeping English masses are unable to save us with their votes. But I do believe just one million sturdy English yeomen prepared to make small sacrifices for their country could save England though. If we are genuinely serious about our future freedom / survival, we need to start thinking in these terms – whilst we still can.
Interesting fact: There are twice as many female Muslims as males in Britain. Some males have one wife, some have four. The government pays the wives to have lots of children, even though polygamy is illegal in Britain. Tax-payers money is being spent on replacing the English, even as we are called racists for noticing this crime against humanity.”

“sleeping English masses”
Indeed. My council ward is 94% white. Most people are employed – white and blue collar jobs, lots of tradesmen. We live in a nice county town which has a semi-rural feel, surrounded by villages that have probably changed very little. Aside from some housing developments here and there, the pace of change appears slow and life is comfortable and good. Easy to kid yourself that it will always be like that.
Exactly, it’s only when the problem knocks right at their door that they will react, by then the reset will be too far on to stop, slowly slowly catch a monkey!
just how the uniparty has been ordered to play it
Exactly right.
It’s easy to forget that England is still a country approx 80% white and Muslims only make up approx 6% of the population. It’s easy to forget due to the amount of prominence Islam gets and the ongoing appeasement of Muslims and migrants, like they have some sort of special V.I.P status in society, combined with the simultaneous erasure of British culture, identity and heritage. I wonder how British Muslims would define ”national pride”…
It’s my opinion that it’s not the number of Muslims in and of themselves that’s important in enacting fundamental change to British ( or any other European country undergoing Islamization ) society but the amount of native traitors who are enabling all of this to happen. And these traitors need to be there in their numbers from the ground up. So the activists/protesters/Lefty voters are integral, through to the police and their two-tiered approach, the judiciary and the politicians. Even the King is a bloody traitor and bends over for Islam! The ‘useful idiots’ on the ground are necessary in large numbers because they need to vote for the parties that are intent on perpetuating the replacement process. So as long as there are these traitors in large enough numbers and in positions of power then it’s a foregone conclusion, isn’t it? Reminds me of this quote;
“the oppressor would not be so strong if he did not have accomplices among the oppressed” Simone de Beauvoir.
More on the Islamization process of Europe. They’re playing the slow game but the suicide mission only ever progresses;
”Western European countries demean their own culture in order to justify admitting large numbers of antagonistic immigrants. Either they reject their colonial pasts and open the doors to Muslim immigrants from their old colonies, such as Pakistanis in Britain and North Africans in France, or they claim they do not have a culture or that it is boring, so they welcome Muslims whom they call “colorful,” as in Norway and Sweden. Nor do any of these countries appear to be concerned about illegal migrants, who they are reluctant to expel.
These migrants are granted every welfare measure imaginable, from stipends to free housing to unemployment payments. Then, when the immigrants fail to learn the local language and to get work, and fail to accept the authority of municipal employees and officers, the governments rebuke themselves for failing to “integrate” the immigrant population.
One area in which immigrants are highly productive is crime. According to RealClearInvestigations “the data show that each one percentage point increase in immigrant population is associated with a 3.6 percent increase in the homicide rate.”
Researchers in Denmark reached similar conclusions about immigration and crime. An index shows that crime in 2020 was 51% higher among male immigrants and 149% higher among male offspring with a non-Western background than among the entire male population.
Not all immigrants were equally responsible for crime. In Norway, Sri Lankans integrated well, and in Sweden Vietnamese were not responsible for crimes. Throughout Europe, it is North African, Middle Eastern, and African immigrants, i.e. Muslims, who are responsible for the high crime rate.”

“It’s easy to forget that England is still a country approx 80% white “
True though even if we stopped immigration now it would not remain like that because of the different birth rates and the different demographics (immigrants are younger than average). And many of those white people are not British (though they are our European cousins).
Among some Brits, more often than not in my experience middle class do-gooding types, it seems to be a desire to commit suicide, though many of them live in nice neighbourhoods and have money and secure jobs so the changes don’t affect them much, yet.
I think difficulties are also made a lot worse by the natural human tendency to want to live with your own tribe, so groups get concentrated in areas and become significant or dominant rather than blending in. This seems to dissipate over time, at least with some groups.
Thanks for this Mogs.
native traitors
These people are despicable.
My town was like that but distinct change began when a housing developer took card from an East London borough after the Brown financial collapse of 2008.
Sorry not following “a housing developer took card” – maybe a typo?
I don’t know Epping that well but I thought it was meant to be quite pleasant.

Yep. Given how complacent most people are, this may be are only salvation.

Excellent point
Putin needs a deal, but it won’t be easy for him to end the war
It won’t be easy most particularly because Putin is an indicted war criminal.
Oh! ‘The Trump administration has ended U.S. government funding for….the program, led by Yale University’s Humanitarian Research Lab under the State Department’s Conflict Observatory, collected biometric data and satellite imagery to document Russia’s abduction of Ukrainian children….the research lab’s database may have been permanently deleted, jeopardizing efforts to locate the children and hold those responsible accountable.’ So that’s all good…..for Putin……. Still, who cares about children when there is money to be made, prizes to be won…..
Putin has trousered this and other capitulations and will come back for more.
Russia has form
‘We in Finland understand exactly what you’re going through….I’m sure we’re going to have to accept a peace with Putin…..The support that you will see from the Finnish public … is the support of identity and historical experience.’
So good luck to the Trump administration…..but it isn’t going to work.

The Daily Telegraph cuts through the bullshit.
That is unfair on the DT. It didn’t mention you once.
“EVs could be charged as fast as filling a petrol car after breakthrough”
The problem isn’t with charging the car quickly, that can be don’t easily, the problem lies with the supply of so much energy in such a short space of time.
10 cars at a fuel station use separate pumps from one underground tank and all 10 can fill at the same rate (due to the 10 separate pipes, one to each pump)
X amount of electric is supplied to anyone charging station, therefore one car can be charged at the full rate stated but as soon as you start adding more cars the charge rate is divided by the number of cars drawing charge, so 1 car full 1000watt charge, 2 cars 500 each, 3 cars 333 each etc! This doesn’t take into account the danger of such massive amounts of energy flowing at any one time
Yes. The safest way for that amount of energy to flow at such a high rate is to use hydrocarbon. Years of research and experience have made it very safe.
Also, how much current this fast charging is going to need?
Assuming a 50 kWh battery (Renault Zoe size), charging it in 3 minutes would require a few thousand Amps of charging current and correspondingly extremely thick wires. You wouldn’t be able to use a cable.
Yes. The Tesla model S apparently has a battery Useable Capacity of 98.0 kWh (call it 100 kWh as a nice round number). At 1,000 kW (1 MW) that will take 0.1 hours or 6 mins to deliver that much energy assuming none is lost in the process. This could be achieved with a 1,000 Volt cable delivering 1,000 Amps or, of course, a 100 Volt cable at 10,000 Amps. Letting consumers handle 1,000 Volt or 10,000 Amp cables does not seem like a good idea to me.
The solution is current carrying wires over all roads and an arm running from the top of each vehicle attached to the wire. We could call them trolley-cars and trolley-buses..
They tested it in Germany on a few motorways, trucks basically become trains until they disconnect and run on diesel, and it’s easier to install than railways. I find it makes sense for densely used routes.
https://youtu.be/_3P_S7pL7Yg
That’s a solution looking for a problem. It pre-supposes that we should run trucks on electricity.
British aid to Kyiv must continue to flow
‘The peace deal that President Trump promised to deliver on “day one” has failed to budge Mr Putin, who evidently thinks he holds most of the cards. What it has done is to galvanise the rest of Europe.
the German parliament voted to release around £450 billion of infrastructure funding to bolster the country’s defences…..reflecting…..the growing European realisation that they can no longer rely on US military help in the face of Russian aggression and rearmament.’
What, exactly, is going on in Washington? Ill informed bigotry meeting institutionalised inertia: chaos.
‘President Trump and others, especially Elon Musk, operate according to: ‘the arrogance of ignorance.’
They are business people who are ignorant of how governments actually function and need to function.
They are ignorant of history and of how the international political and economic system works and should work for the benefit of the United States and the entire world.
They believe everything is easy and that everyone in government, whether in the U.S., Ukraine, or anywhere else, is either stupid, lazy, or simply not as successful in business as they are.
Placating Putin and giving him a ceasefire agreement without security guarantees for Ukraine would only ensure that the war starts again. That inconvenient truth is something that Vance and Trump will not accept because they are ignorant and therefore arrogant.
Trump, I think, really does not care about the Russia-Ukraine war…..all Trump wants is to be able to say he is a peacemaker and that he was the one, the only person on Earth who could broker a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia.
Trump is going to have to recalibrate his thinking soon because, as I was saying, I do not believe that President Putin will extend a 30-day ceasefire if he even accepts it.
There will come a moment when Donald Trump is furious that Vladimir Putin has taken advantage of him because Putin was never serious about a ceasefire. At that point, Trump will have to rethink his approach.
He will have to look for new instruments or tools to put pressure on Putin. First and foremost, I think there will be serious economic pressure that Trump will impose on Putin. But beyond that, I don’t believe President Trump has a framework for dealing with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
He thinks he is going to create peace through a ceasefire, and then that will be the end of the conflict as far as the U.S. is concerned.
After that, it will be up to the European Commission and the European members of NATO to make the peace last and to develop security guarantees, with the U.S. no longer involved.’
A former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State and former Director for European and Eurasian Affairs at the U.S. National Security Council.
Europe to develop security guarantees…..Oh!…..like the Budapest Memorandum….Brilliant!

I love your sentence, “They are business people who are ignorant of how governments actually function and need to function”.
So how do governments actually function? In my opinion, by being managed by politicians only interested in two things: their image and their pockets. And such people are very, very happy to deceive: take Friedrich Merz as an example, immediately reneging on major pre-election promises.
Putin simply wants to get Trump to the table to get discussions going, whereby Ukraine will only play a minor role – there are many more important matters to discuss.
By supposedly offering Putin a cease-fire, Trump wants to present himself to the world as the currently most important global player.
Putin, however, knows that a cease-fire has no meaning without massive preparation on both sides: who monitors the cease-fire along a 2,000km border, who adjudicates cease-fire violations and how, will all military supplies and training be stopped, etc.? The root causes for the conflict also need to be resolved. It appears that the Trump team has little experience in such highly sensitive matters.
Trump could so simply bring peace to the world by stopping armament shipments to both Ukraine and Israel. Sadly, he appears to be going in the opposite direction.

Wow! Not a word about the historic return to earth of four astronauts, of which two were trapped for 8 mos in space. History making moment and yet not a peep from the daily sceptic.
Richard Eldred was compiling the news round up last night around the time the astronauts splashed down off the coast of Florida. At that time there wasn’t much news about them, other than that they had splashed down, which wouldn’t have been news to you.
I too like to hear news of developments in space industry and exploration. I was disappointed but not too surprised when Boeing cocked up their Starliner which meant the two astronauts had to stay on the ISS for so long. I gather they weren’t too upset as astronauting is what they do.
I’m also disappointed that SpaceX hasn’t yet managed to get it’s Starship working – it’s intended to be an essential part of getting boots on the Moon again.
On a more positive note I see Elon Musk says SpaceX will launch a (unmanned, of course) mission to Mars next year – though he’s often far too optimistic in the timing.
However, The Daily Sceptic News Roundup is A summary of the most interesting stories in the past 24 hours that challenge the prevailing orthodoxy about the ‘climate emergency’, public health ‘crises’ and the supposed moral defects of Western civilisation. I don’t think even a rather unusual crew return from the ISS quite fits that description.

Here are some comments from the public:

— “I stopped reading when she attacked Tommy Robinson. There are those far more odious in government than he.”

[***Note from Heretic: May I say how shocked I was to get a call from our church minister today, saying that 6 of my fellow Christians had complained to him about me, because when the preacher asked us to pray for individual people aloud last Sunday, I prayed for Tommy Robinson and all the others unjustly imprisoned for defending children.
The preacher talked about “Love & Understanding & Tolerance of Different Views”, etc., then said I must stop mentioning Tommy Robinson’s name in prayers because it upsets some people just hearing his name !!!??? One Ethnic African Christian woman even got up and flounced out of the service!!!
So I’m basically being driven out of church for praying for Tommy Robinson & the Imprisoned British Patriots. It’s just unbelievable.]
