An interesting article that in many ways states the obvious. I think though the obvious needs continuously restating. Especially when lunacy like Hinkley Point is still not entirely dead as an option. The future of energy, like telecommunications, is decentralised. The sooner politicians and Luddite engineers move past the concept of centralised energy we can get on with creating a more accessible, more equitable and more 21st Century solution to energy and climate change.
Much of the planet does not possess the extensive financial, power, communications, and automotive infrastructures that are commonplace in the West. This was a serious handicap throughout the 20th century. But as the planet transitions into new technologies, there have been occasions when the developing world leaps western technology to lead the way into a more sustainable future.
