Gas v Electric8 Jun 2021 07:59
I think the government has got this all wrong, ok they want to look good to the rest of the world but to give up gas for electric is just daft.
First let's look at the homes , to chance to electric heating from gas is going to cost us all about 3 times the cost for the same heat in running costs now who can afford that.
Does the government give everyone another £1,000 a year to cover the cost NO , who pays the conversion costs the government NO the consumer.
What happens to all that gas we don't use, does that mean other countries that stay with gas for the next 20 years get the gas at half price because there is so much of it. This will turn out to be yet another pie in the sky dream like DigItal radio switch that has never happend, Diesal cars that were the new world but now bit the dust. Sola pannels that would save the world with big cash backs but have now become a big loss maker never to repay the costs.In a few years everyone will be back on gas . Don't worry there will be another dream coming along soon.
