When it last snowed heavily (1st March 2018), 26% of the national grid was powered via coal.
I specifically recall telling Andy not to plug his Leaf in to charge until the gas fueled power stations had come back on-line
Anyway, it's comforting to know that we still have capacity when the gas supply suffers (for now).

At least they're trying https://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/...-drop-25-year/
The Uk is generating more and more electricity from renewable sources first time it hit 50% last year. Only to get larger supplies. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-40198567
Bus low emission tech is here now
https://www.lowcvp.org.uk/Hubs/leb/Home.htm
There are tax benefits for going ultra low emissions

It just general apathy, couldn't careless attitude. You and I will be forced to go ultra low/zero emission or be forced off the road.

I repair mine...they usually blow the PCB or protective fuse because a couple of 1N4007 diodes go short circuit.

Not this crap again For starters people don’t tend to live near power stations (with the exception of Didcot and a small number of others). Then there’s the fact that the emissions per unit output are significantly lower for power stations.
Oh and that the uK doesn’t really use coal power anymore (unless it’s uncharacteristically cold)...
