General Discussion

Scotland regularly produces a surplus. The reason this was a headline was because it's unusual for the percentage to reach so high, but that will be a trend given the number of new developments under way. Through Scottish Power, I have access to a tariff that guarantees 100% renewable sourcing.

Wind power isn't the only electricity development Scotland's involved in. There have been pioneering installations of tidal flow generators, which can produce predictable and constant baseload energy, along with hydro power, which has a long history in Scotland. Vast numbers of houses now have their own solar power installations, and people can see their significant benefits directly through readouts and in their power bills.

You sound like an ideologue, so it's probably not worth debating with you, but the information's out there if you take off your blinkers.
