A different way to do our energy
Alan Carmichael (April 19) refers to Scotland’s wind energy possibly becoming the “Saudi Arabia” of renewables. He is obviously a victim of SNP spin and unaware that Saudi Arabia will produce abundant energy from solar at a quarter of the cost of wind.
The Saudi administration is committed to this green solution as they know their huge revenues from oil will wither away. China, Australia, the USA and many other countries, favourably located in the middle latitudes and with large desert areas, are all committed.
Scotland’s future is bleak unless its energy strategy is driven by engineering and financial expertise and not political whim, influenced by false prophets solely concerned with selfish interest rather than the nation’s future.
