#2024WithBinance How the UK Pays to Waste Its Own Wind Power š¬š§
Youād think having too much wind power would be a good problem, right?
Not in the UK, where theyāre spending over Ā£1 billion this year to shut down their own wind farms ā”ļø
Why? Because the grid canāt handle the energy. You couldnāt make this stuff up š¤¦
While Scotlandās shiny new wind turbines are getting paid to do nothing, gas plants down south are cranking up to keep the lights on.
UK is burning fossil fuels instead of using free wind power. Makes perfect sense, doesnāt it?
The power grid hasnāt kept pace with the countryās renewable goals. So now, taxpayers are spending billions for wasted energy and higher emissions š
Brilliant planning
