Support 100 per cent renewable uk

Back 100 per cent renewable energy!

Because of the dominance of the fossil fuel and nuclear energy industries, there is very little research into what a 100 per cent renewable energy system would look like and how it can be brought into being.

Instead, bodies such as the Environmental Audit Committee (EAC) of the House of Commons are busy chasing nuclear corporate fantasies for small modular reactors.

We want to complain about this set of priorities and insist on an enquiry into the practicalities of a 100 per cent renewable energy system for the UK. However we need funds to mount this campaign. To begin with we shall need further funds to organise a petition and events in order to mount a complaint to the EAC about their misplaced priorities.

As can be seen here https://committees.parliament.uk/event/20052/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/ the EAC has been holding a biased enquiry with oral evidence that does not include anybody who is sceptical of this technology. There is widespread scepticism among independent analysts about SMRs. The only serious effort to commercialise this technology for civil purposes, Nuscale in the USA, has been cancelled because of failing economic prospects.

We have succeeded, partly through donations from Crowd Fund Me, in commissioning and publishing a report on achieving 100percent renewables in the UK. We also held a Conference to promote the report. See the details at our home web page here: https://100percentrenewableuk.org/

Now we need to raise more funds to campaign further to make the UK government take seriously the need to research and model the practicalities of providing energy services using 100 per cent renewable energy supply.
