Energy bills
The key factor missing from the letter by Tim Flinn on ditching fossil fuels (Letters, 4 April) is the data that electricity is four times more expensive than gas, hence energy bills will return to the current levels that has resulted in the cost-of-living crisis once fossil fuels are banned by Holyrood.
In addition, Mr Flinn makes no reference to the cost of the hydrogen-fuelled back-up system required to keep the lights on as windmills are unreliable should the wind fail to blow!
