Electricity Capacity - Again

Golly gosh! We have a 122 page report from Ofgem telling us that the electricity system is getting a tad squeezed. We know this! Even this ill-informed blog has highlighted the problem on a number of occasions. The words "Rome", "fiddling" and "burns" spring to mind.

Successive governments have ducked and fudged the issue, failed to put sensible market mechanisms in place and generally failed the electorate. Given that energy is the starting point for the nation's value chain this represents an horrendous dereliction of duty. The current mob seems to me to be no better than its predecessors. Dare I say it? Bring back the CEGB with all its faults!
