The plan would make the country more dependent on imported gas, not less – certainly in the medium term
For as long as the biggest emitters are still pumping out CO2, the UK’s contribution is minuscule. Sir Keir said the aim was to make the UK self-sufficient in electricity by the end of the decade but this is simply not possible. We will need to continue importing gas for electricity long after 2030 because renewables will not produce enough energy, not least on windless, cloudy days. Moreover, the way the energy market is currently constructed, electricity from renewables is priced at the same high level as gas. This needs to change. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/…/labours-green-energy…/
