Families could be asked to ration energy when the wind doesn’t blow – Mail Online

Published by SAS Volunteer on

  • Energy rationing ‘very possible’ for the UK, Kathryn Porter, energy consultant at Watt-Logic said
  • Lack of wind could ‘leave us vulnerable’ due to replacement of thermal/ nuclear generation with renewable
  • Much of Northern Europe has had similar low wind conditions, restricting ability to import from elsewhere
  • Liz Truss last night ruled out the idea, but energy expert said ‘you either have rationing or you have blackouts’
