Whatever the stats say, Scotland does not need nuclear power, nuke power plants built as ridiculous expense to the public purse no doubt, owned by private companies. Unless clever scientists can clinch nuclear fusion, a long shot, nuclear power has had it's day, it's dangerous expensive and will leave future generations with a MASSIVE problem through no fault of their own. NO thanks.

Here's Sabine Hossenfelder with a bit of positive news about nuclear fusion.

Here's some bad news from Sabine on Nuke fusion.

Sigh.

Hi, I confess I'm doing this in my head but I think the prices quoted equate to a cost of £17,000/MWh, when lately the day ahead auction prices have been more like £50 - £90/MWh?
