While the recent WAG head line of £300M for climate change sounds good it proves that we are behind the curve again……….

Next issues will be offshore, large volume wind + a higher emphasis on energy efficiency – even though in the UK there is no statutory commitment to this unlike emissions.

Re Wales it should be:

§         Sustainable Rural communities: Energy efficiency and micro-generation

§         Towns: Smart grid + electric car infrastructure & smart building design + combined heat and power stations from waste plants

§         Offshore wind: Big implementations in Irish Sea + investigate tide (long time out no R&D or interest in this globally)

§         Nuclear: At Wylfa to support base load

§         Support Carbon Capture & storage : Coal can then provide jobs in Wales
