Where a report by Lord Oxburgh concluded that , "If UK houses were insulated up to the standard of houses in Austria , then it would only need another 200 GW of electric generation capacity to heat them with electricity ".

So that would be another 50 plus Hinckly C power stations , approx £1000 Billion , plus about the same again to upgrade the grid .

Peanuts.

Mind you, by the time new build (absent any more subsidies to pay the senior management of the builders) reaches a scale that become truly meaningful for any part of the objective, it will be today's Primary School children who will be paying for it.

I hope they appreciate the legacy.
