With warnings of high pressure over Europe boding ill for wind and solar, the IEA estimates that to prevent blackouts this winter Europe must reduce gas use by up to 13%, meaning rationing is very much on the cards.
The Government could slash energy bills by £800 and more if only it stopped sending loads of our electricity to Europe and made us an island grid. This would allow us to properly address energy shortages and prices.
With no viable plan for days when there's no sun or wind, and the need for energy security more obvious than ever, it's time to hit pause on Net Zero.
It's been claimed that energy from wind will be vastly cheaper than from gas by the late 2020s, but the projections are based on illusions about the real cost of wind generation and the use of gas as a back-up.
First Russia said they couldn't supply gas without a turbine from Canada. Now they're saying they can't do so because they need parts from the West. Russia is forcing Europe to undermine its own sanctions.

Telling African countries to stop developing their economies by banning cheap, reliable fossil fuel is little more than an eco-imperialist dream. It was never going to work.
The sale of new boilers should be banned to force people to switch to 'greener' but more expensive and less effective heat pumps, the Government’s infrastructure chief has said.
Fracking sites were granted a stay of execution last night as ministers considered using them for further research rather than concrete them up forever.
Britain has today followed the U.S. and banned Russian oil imports as drivers started queuing for fuel after being hit by the steepest weekly hike in fuel prices in more than 18 years.
