The task of balancing the grid and maintaining electrical frequency has grown dangerously the more reliant on wind power we have become – as demonstrated by the widespread power cuts of August 2019. The cost of grid management has soared to nearly £2billion a year in the last two decades. Energy Solutions. Gas is the only answer.

To meet the climate goals set in the Paris Agreement and keep the global temperature rise to below 2 degrees, the CO 2 emission intensity of the global economy would need to be reduced by 85% in 35 years. In the 66% 2°C Scenario, aggressive efficiency measures would be needed to lower the energy intensity of the global economy by 2.5%
