The worst part about emphasizing fossil fuels now is they are dead technologies that are a drain on productivity and the economy. Solar and wind generation with battery storage is far cheaper and will provide an abundance of electricity for running the economy. Economies that switch over sooner will be at a great advantage over those that delay.

The UK announces the final go-ahead on the £38 billion Sizewell C nuclear plant project.

The UK government, the largest shareholder in the project, said Sizewell C, in eastern England, will cost around £38 billion (€44 billion) to construct.

The UK has pivoted toward nuclear power since the start of the war in Ukraine, citing energy security, net zero and the need to modernise its ageing power stations.
