As I understand it the UK tends to pass on a lot of the renewables-related costs (inc network) to industrial energy users while in Germany they tend to get passed to households. Another explanation for why the UK has deindustrialised so much faster than most of its neighbours

Love this video👇
Is there any company out there which does as much to glorify high tech manufacturing as Apple?
Which is somewhat ironic given Apple doesn't actually manufacture any of its own products, outsourcing that all to other companies...

Key context on the Port Talbot closure. UK now has just one primary steelworks (Scunthorpe) also likely to close, while EU neighbours build 'green steel' alternatives. Reposted through gritted teeth as unlike Ed Conway I've not been lucky enough to film in a steelworks 😢

Everyone needs urgently to consume Ed Conway book Material World to get a grip of the importance of physical infrastructures and supply chains. UK has 60m+ pop but run by capitalists as if it's🇨🇭. No industrial strategy, no energy policy 🙄
