There is one particular section of the Imperial College report on smart power that I wanted to highlight:

In other words, they are saying that they cannot get anywhere their decarbonisation targets, regardless of how much low carbon capacity they build, without adding “flexibility” to the system.

Their solution appears to rely on:

1) Importing energy

2) Battery storage

3) Reducing demand

Heaven help us all!
