Wholesale gas prices have fallen again. At these levels, a new gas-fired power station running flat out can deliver electricity at around half the cost of an onshore wind turbine and around a third of the cost of an offshore one. #CostOfNetZero #ItsAReligion
@aDissentient Really?? Funny how we have the LOWEST prices on electricity - BY FAR - here in Denmark, whenever there is wind. 😃
@aDissentient Strange that we still have the highest energy prices in Europe.
@aDissentient Yeah, that's today, but a couple of years ago things were a bit different. Building new CCGT today is a bet on several decades of reliable, affordable supply, locks us into the global competitive market, leaves us at the whims of suppliers - many not politically aligned.
@aDissentient @PMolloy1 Do the costs of the on/off shore turbines include the subsidies/levies and grants?
