- Do you want more windfarms?
The government is planning to build enough to power 20 million homes, on seabeds owned by the Crown.
Is that the answer to making Brits more energy independent?

18:13 Renewables on houses are actually an attractive option for buyers of properties; they have a positive overall effect a win-win for buyers and contractors. Please for the love of god get people who actually know what they are talking about
I’m in Texas and we have tons of wind farms. Especially at night they are beautiful from a distance
I recently heard that because of these very windfarms, temperatures are rising in Texas...
@@geronomina6395 Probably a report from the texan oil industry.
@@geronomina6395 you funny
@@stevesretroloft Yeah, sure; what else would it be, right?
Good thing you're not prejudiced...
@@geronomina6395 He probably isn't prejudice. It does sound like one of the daft comments the oil lobby would come up with. Anyone to blame but them. They probably also came up with wind turbines causing cancer bs.
We need wind farms everywhere. On the mountains, in the sea, on the moors, on the hills .. they look beautiful
The heck wrong with you, they don't look good and often kill birds too lol
@@teem5642 So do every infrastructure kills animals especially nuclear with it's water demand
Yes, "beautiful" like a blobfish.
@@teem5642 More birds are killed by cats - should we ban them?
What's the rason we haven't built lots of Nuculer plants? The twin plants at Hinckley C are 6 years late and the cost has gone up to 30 billion. Lets not keep saying how nuclear energy is cheaper. Once built it's cheap (but not as cheap as wind), but the cost to build is astronomical.
I can't see any reason why we shouldn't have lots of off shore wind farms.
It’s not a solution
Can we stop ascribing the Crown Estates to Royal Family ownership! It is not owned by them in the same way that Crown Land in New Zealand and Canada is not. The Royal family may receive some income from the Crown Estate but it is more appropriate to call it owned by you and me with profits and fees received being handed over to the Treasury. Stop this fudge!
Solor panel only works when it’s sunny we don’t have the sun some people are not the bright
Solar panels work fine when it's cloudy.
I love the look of wind turbines. Who doesn't love a windmill? I would love my house to be surrounded by them, better than two thermal power stations and oil refinery I had a view for most of my life. Now I can see wind turbines.
ALSO GERMANY HAS ONE THIRD OF ENERGY RUN BY RENEWABLES PLUS IN 2014 GERMANY ABOLISHED ALL STUDENT LOANS NOT JUST FOR LOCALS BUT INTERNATIONAL TOO
Yes, we do need new wind farms.
No, we don't. What we need is reason.
So we build wind farms all around the coast and they supply a decent proportion of our energy and we become heavily reliant on it. Imagine a scenario where a hostile nation decides to take out the supply by destroying either the turbines or the cabling. No people would be killed but the outcome would be devastating and we would powerless to do anything about it. It’s not in any way inconceivable as somewhat naive to dismiss as we seem to have plenty of rather powerful enemies 🤔
OK, so what sort of energy production system could not be disrupted by some sort of attack?
@@ferguscampbell5828 One based predominantly on land. I wonder who blew up the Nord Stream 2 pipeline?
OMG for what is supposed to be a factual programme missed one thing facts!
Can you get someone on who knows what they are talking about?. 20m homes? …only when it is backed up by gas. No one will pay for unbacked up wind power because we all want continuous power. Batteries will never get cheaper. There is nowhere in the world where electricity from wind is cheaper. There is not enough copper being mined or will be mined to achieve the UKs wind plans.
🤣
Battery costs have dropped 90% in
You know someone's on the grift when they say windfarms are ugly. They would never say the same of electric pylons.
No we don`t pointless bloody things.
Yes..yes...yes.. more wind farms
I worked on a council block of flats in 1998 and we fitted solar panels to one side of the block .its still in use still reducing the tenants electricity bills . Its more than possible to install them no need for storage hubs then.
I don't care if there's a wind farm next to every lamppost
not the worst idea!
Why can’t they be built along the motorways. Motorways are ugly and boring and wind turbines won’t make them look any worse than they are.
Nuclear power is so expensive, battery prices have dropped 75% this year, wind is cheep.
Which batteries have dropped in price?
@@teem5642 Overall batteries have dropped in price; you can look at the report from the International Energy Agency (IEA) on batteries - individual brands of batteries their mileage may vary
Esther is beautiful just saying haha
Maybe, but difficult to discover the source of her expertise in this area.
If its cheap why are bills going up
Because our prices are based on gas.
@@philcotswold5940 Why are they based on gas, because you need the gas as back up. Why do you need the gas as back-up, because wind is unreliable and cant always meet demand…So electricity is now expensive because we’re building a second grid…. Just as a side note, if the electricity price is based on Gas and wind is cheap, who’s creaming it right now and why doesn’t the price drop when there’s load of renewables in the grid??
@@glennhowlett2082 The bosses of Octopus and Ecotricity have said their prices could come down. But the current regulations restricts what they are allowed to do. They also said the current system is broken. We will have to wait to see if the new government can change the status quo with this new British Energy concept. By the way I was just answering your question.
How about putting them in the gardens of the people like mc guire then see how many they want
We're nearby to them and they have a buzz around them..not pleasant, plus birds are killed/ injured by them 👎
WHY IS THERE NO MENTION OF THE LATEST VIDEO FOOTAGE AT MANCHESTER AIRPORT. YOU WERE ALL OVER THE FIRST VIDEO!!
3:25 Please get her off; she is actively promoting myths here - batteries for wind farms absolutely exist. The technology has been around for years.
They do exist but aren't able to keep up with current demand in the UK, so hence no battery storage currently capable of meeting the megawatts demanded daily. Currently on The grid, wind and sea only facilitate supporting the current infrastructure of fossil and not fully working independently
4 wind farms in Scotland have been signed off and are ready to go. The grid is unable to take them so they are currently doing nothing. Infrastructure is not there for more wind farms.
@@keirmitchell5560 I'm aware of that we have the same issue in N.Ireland as well; we need to speed up the infrastructure which is doable - it's a pollical will problem. Batteries are even more essential, though to mitigate too much supply
@@teem5642 Yes true but she was actively promoting a myth here; batteries can be scalable to meet the demand it just requires pollical will there is also gravity pumped wells that UK should be taking advantage as well if we over supply once we reach peak supply of renewables
These two don't know what they are talking about. There are no oil powered thermal stations in the UK.There is only one coal powered station left in the UK and that is due to close next month. Gas thermal power stations do balance the intermittency of wind turbines and solar PV. But more wind turbines geographically dispersed will increase wind power output and reduce the use of gas. Renewable energy storage is key though. Lithium-Ion and now Sodium-Ion batteries can store energy to meet peak demand and balance the grid, as does pumped hydro storage. Cryogenically stored air is the most promising emerging storage technology There is a test plant in Manchester and 2 production plants are being built in the NE.
Maqueer and the other one, what a pair of wasters
It’s cost to much to fix them and I do not work as well
As well as what?
17:52 Again she doesn't know what you are talking about - building regs should definitely push towards renewable generation and passive house like houses, it is already getting there with the likes of Scotland. Building regs especially in England are currently lacklustre and have been for many years - you see that will the likes of Grenfell fire etc
About time
Gimmick
Silly woman wind and solar have been cheaper than oil and gas for years now and it way more reliable as it’s always windy and sunny problem Tidal is sea rise would make it useless
If the talk a bout cold fusion being done a while back that would be best it’s unlimited clean energy but that could be years off
