I expected this to be an anti renewables story. But no, we are witnessing decades of shirked capital expenditure by bonus-hungry executives and financially driven owners.

Our polling shows around 2/3 of people would accept 50-meter-high pylons in the countryside for lower energy bills?

Would you?

This specific case of Heathrow also raises the key question of whether a backup that doesn't back up (as it is not powerful enough or is in a similar location so it also gets knocked out) is actually even a backup?

Owners of major infrastructure have the full cost of investing in resilience & contingency to deal with major one-off disruptions at any point in time but do not have the full cost of all the disruptions when problems occur, so the incentives are wrong.

Companies that own major infrastructure tend to spend on what they need to or what people see rather than on resilience & contingency to deal with big one-off disruptions & single points of failure.

Seeing those EV adoption numbers climb! 📈 It's clear the shift is happening. To keep pace with places like Norway, the UK needs to ramp up commercial EV infrastructure ASAP.
