    The problem is renewables, apart from being start-stop, are very low density energy. They take up between 300 and 500 the amount of space to produce the same power as a gas plant. So, if you want this "clean" energy (forgetting the awful recycling problems down the line) then be prepared to lose LOTS of farm land and beautiful countryside. Battery storage is not the answer either - again = acres of land covered in shipping container sized batteries for a couple of hours of back up power - paid for twice: once to store it, then to supply it.

Also turnover was £550m yet only made a profit of £9.7m that’s a % profit of 1.76 absolutely horrendous. So GB Energy, an investment company is going to invest in green energy. So an investor will expect a return so who in their right mind would want to invest in green energy with such miserable returns. Also the government will guarantee a return so who pays the interest when the profits are so small. Yep us the taxpayers. We are being told a big lie. GB Energy is nothing but a scam, the money the govt invest will be lost and we will all be on the line to repay it back. It’s a seriously bad idea.
