Analysis: Cutting the ‘green crap’ has added £22bn to UK energy bills since 2015 - Carbon Brief
www.carbonbrief.org
UK's energy bills were £22bn higher over the past decade than they would have been if Conservative governments had not cut “green crap” climate policies.

£9bn due to not having built more cheap onshore wind, £5bn due to poorly insulated homes, £5bn due to low solar deployment, £3bn because new homes were built less efficient.

    My parents 1741 house with new double glazing is like that - cool in summer, hot in winter without even needing the heating

    I’m amazed that we collectively forgot how to build houses but I guess 2ft thick walls make a dent in the size of the living space and you’ve got to build a box with paper thin walls and no garden to optimise that
