Renewables can plug UK energy gap

Oliver Tickell's article in today's Guardian spells out the case for renweables, based on a report from Oxford University's Environmental Change Institute. There's a lot more work to do, but hard evidence like this is vital to campaigners if we are going to stop a new generation of nuclear power stations.

"In the next year or so, the UK is going to have to decide how to meet its electricity needs for the next half-century. It's an incredible opportunity for renewables but my fear is that it may be missed."

Graham Sinden, of Oxford's Environmental Change Institute
