@Controcorrente @CountofDown @edfenergy There isn't adequate storage though.and there can't be. That's why countries going down the wind and solar route are also building gas power stations as back ups.

@DavidIndySco @WarwickisaHunt @edfenergy Talk to me about the cost of storage for hydrogen in comparison to the cost of hinkley point c. Because again - it can’t compete. £200/MWh (reservoirs maybe) or £1000/MWh for storage container... compared to £95/MWh Hinkley point. That cost isn’t coming down. Electrolysis might.

@DavidIndySco @WarwickisaHunt @edfenergy Your roof panels aren’t going to be providing you with much electricity on 21st December at 6pm when you most need it. Problem is folk don’t understand demand and what the grid does. You have to be able to guarantee peak demand can be met (usually around 21/12 at 6pm)

@a_tethys @CountofDown @edfenergy Again, I would not have such a problem with nuclear if it wasn’t for the risks ***ociated with the disposal of nuclear waste. But also, I do feel that renewables, rolled out with purpose, will get the job done quicker, less extensively and way more safely.

@freshandlow @StuartPacker @edfenergy Yes, because they work better as local, small scale units.
As small a scale as down to one household if need be.
Stefano Tonelli @Controcorrente
Reported 2021-10-23 11:41:01
@a_tethys @CountofDown @edfenergy More importantly, you don’t need to keep gas powered plants running when not needed, because powering up on demand is not an option. Wind farms are often asked to wind down, when demand is low, because they can. If they had proper backup they could simply store it for later.

@transitionlouth @curiodds @edfenergy Not at all. Putting all our chips on wind and solar, which both rely on FF to pick up the shortfall, will not solve the problem.
But keep kidding yourself, and responding with sarcasm.

@JamesRobvincent @CountofDown @edfenergy I’ll give you that they can’t be large installations but consider that the Orbital test site can power a small town. How many small coastal towns are there, around the island, where this would work? Like with every new technology, costs will come down as more are built.

@Thorshared @edfenergy I have never made the argument that wood, gasoline and diesel were solutions to the problem.
Waste leaked into the Clyde at Hunterson, Sizewell. Let's not forget, Three mile Island, ***ushima, Windscale, or Chernobyl.
Were reports of the effects made public?
Morette Thompson @MoretteThompson

@Thorshared @edfenergy So Creating a solution which requires the waste containment within containers with a life span of how long? That is pushing the problem far into the future not solving it.

@all_about_monet @WarwickisaHunt @edfenergy I'm in favour of nuclear for now so not arguing against, but no5 does provide options, windfarms currently used for grid balancing regularly for example, but yep intermittent wind an issue. Tidal will be big game changer however, and battery storage going to be big too

@all_about_monet @WarwickisaHunt @edfenergy Yes 49.5 Hz a mistype on my behalf.
Grid frequency is an issue, as without it, the grid fails. Existing generated power, from nuclear for example, was bought and sold up to 4 years ago, so as of the minute generation costs would have been deferred.
Warwick Hunt @WarwickisaHunt

@all_about_monet @rahmbit @edfenergy What was the actual reduction in renewable generation when we had no wind for three weeks? I recall seeing an article when something similar happened a couple of years back, production was down 30% from the previous year.

Reported 2021-10-21 06:36:28
@LRichieScott @WarwickisaHunt @edfenergy I ***ume you mean 49.5Hz. Grid frequency isn’t the only issue. And the cost of hydrogen is >£250/MWh compared to nuclear at £95/MWh though I believe the existing generation are around £35/MWH. Sure you CAN use hydrogen but you still have to produce enough to last 3wks - 2.8TWh

@bucciarolo @sc1874 @edfenergy But proving difficult to find.
Of course we couldn’t close the plants down tomorrow, I think Stuart has covered that. But if an independent Scotland wants to be nuclear free then it must look at the alternatives and there are a few.

@WarwickisaHunt @edfenergy I don’t. But I did work for national grid and the purpose of the 2 new cables we put in between england and Scotland was so you had stability for when the last station was closed. You could use coal... except Scotland shut down longanet, ****enzie, methil for its climate targets
Bradleeben @all_about_monet
Reported 2021-10-21 02:20:20
@WarwickisaHunt @edfenergy That last part would be gas or diesels. But the real stability is provided by your cables, which is why if you have a look at the Scottish isles with loads of wind they have to constrain them if the cable is down.

@edfenergy I would like to see a molten salt thorium SMR, as they don’t produce any long live actinides. They don’t use high pressure water so don’t explode or melt down like conventional PWR reactor. If we are stuck with PWR then perhaps modular reactors based on Rolls Royce design.
