Wonder if he goes to work, shopping, holiday, the pub or visiting his shrink on the horse.
No doubt both he and his horse will get a record deal, like this chap did:

There is a marked difference in the situation between urban and rural areas.
Is this due to population density, or the density of the population?
According to reports London and South East have suffered worse....??? How come??? Tanker drivers picking on southerners???
As Zlatan says the South East has suffered more, it always does with fuel supply difficulties.

We don't have many refineries down here, and that also leads to us having higher prices per litre due to higher fuel delivery costs.

I think the article could have explained a bit more. It disregards the Irish link. And doesn't look forward to Greenlink between Pembrokeshire and Wexford.

Well there are currently 2 major links Moyle in Scotland which feeds into the all Ireland Grid , and the EWIC, North Wales to Near Dublin. in which I have a personal interest..It literally adjoins my property . Each of these have a capacity of 500MW , so 1000MW of a resource at present. The new Nord one into Scotland from Norway will be upwards of 1500MW. The Greenlink one in South Wales to Ireland will be another 500 MW. ..it is I think a bit behind schedule . Then there is the proposed Celtic interconnector Brittany to Ireland, which will be longer than the new Nord , and another 700MW.
This is the way by which wind energy becomes strategically viable. Ireland's electrical power requirements are at peak about 7000MW ,and we have already installed about 4500MW of wind, and we are starting into Solar, with a lot more wind to be installed.

I'm surprised there's so much from biomass. Does that include biodiesel?
Drax were making a fortune from wood pellet generation. They would have been generating as much as they could.

Hover your mouse pointer over the Biomass and it says more - Drax 2 using imported wood and Stevens Croft using sawmill waste.

I believe most drop in fuels are derived from biomass...
If they are using 100% ethanol based fuels will they continue with the hybrids???
