Wind & Solar are unaffordable: As wind hits new records in the U.K., more British households fail to pay their electricity bills The number of British households who failed to pay their energy bills in December jumped 39% over the same month a year ago.

Grid expert Lee Cordner illustrated these costs by calculating what it would cost to replace a 100 megawatt natural gas-fired power plant with a solar and battery facility. While the natural gas plant costs $125 million and uses about $10 million in fuel per year, the wind and battery system would cost approximately $2 billion and have to be replaced every 10 to 20 years.
