I asked DESNZ to send me their workings for the Levelised Generations Costs published last year. At the time, they put a cost of £114/MWh on CCGT, or £54/MWh excluding the irrelevant Carbon Cost).
We have the blind leading the blind, advised by clueless cronies who do not have the faintest idea about energy, engineering or the commercial world.
And as the report admits, they have no idea how or whether this daft idea will actually work. So they also have no idea of its cost – it might be £30bn, or it might be £300bn.
But it’s our money they are spending, not their own, so why worry?
