U.K. Electrical Demand High.

Tonight the demand needle is nearly in the amber section of the meter. Does that mean this?

"According the Gridwatch tag: The amber warning represents the demand level that cannot be reliably met by wood or fossil burning, or nuclear generation, but must be augmented by imports, or unreliable intermittent renewable energy. Note that coal, gas and nuclear are close to limits."

I did suggest on another forum that it might be a good idea to consider using the nice packaged units made by Rolls Royce for the Queen be used for land based generation.I was soundly condemned as being daft. Given this is now being considered could I be now considered as a visionary?

Visionary ? not really John - we've played about with SMR's for a few decades or more - as you say engines for boats minus the boats ?
