Looming Supply Gap

One should always be wary of pronouncements from vested interests so the recent report from the IMechE needs to be read in the context of knowing its authors. However, that said, there's more than just plain sabre rattling here. I've posted before about the woeful state of UK electricity supply planning with successive governments botching the market and creating an unhelpful environment for investment and it is this that is at the nub of the IMechE's argument. So - read with a critical eye - the headline numbers may be scaremongering but the underlying message needs to  be taken on board.
