I know Sizewell C is a contentious topic in Suffolk but I thought it would be useful to layout the stakes. If you’re campaigning against Sizewell C you need to also be campaigning for one of the following:1. 457 extra offshore wind turbines (and the onshore substations and transmission they require) 2. 4,267 onshore wind turbines. 3. 25,600 hectares of solar panels4. 12.8 million fewer electric cars 5. 5.6 million homes not needing a heat pump for central heating. 6. Any combination of the above.
This is really important. We have choices to make, and we have to make the numbers balance. If we don’t want nuclear, we have to pick what we want instead. The 2050 calculator.
Well said
