A public forum on UK energy policy: generation, the grid, costs and politics.
Britain is rebuilding its electricity system. The choices made in the next few years will decide what households and industry pay for energy for decades.
This forum is a place to argue about those choices in public, with sources. Anyone can read it without an account. Joining is free and lets you post.
Three rules apply to everyone.
Link to the primary source for any figure you use. Unsourced figures will be questioned.
Say what the evidence shows and why. Arguments from party or allegiance are off-topic.
Disagree as strongly as you like with an argument. Posts that attack a person are removed.
Ask how the system works and what it costs, and read the answers in full.
Put an argument in front of readers who check sources. Discussion is grouped by generation, the grid, costs and bills, and policy.
Every thread has a permanent address, so you can cite it.
An Edinburgh group will meet once it has enough members. Other cities will follow if someone offers to organise them.
