Energy Crisis

Peter,

The current energy problems in the UK are indeed due to years of political neglect and policy problems. The solutions will be engineering ones to produce a robust system for energy distribution, probably electrical. I am not sure if hydrogen is a valid solution.

‘The one developed country in the world in which energy supply is well commercialised is the US, and there have been no new nuclear power plants built there for fifty years.’

There are currently two AP1000 nuclear power plants under construction in Georgia, USA. Vogtle unit 3 has completed hot testing and is expected in service in Q2 2022. Unit 4 is planned to be in service in Q1 2023.
