Recently my blog has focused more on COP21, rather than explicitly examining how to produce enough electricity for the future. Firstly, I've done this because of the huge importance of COP21 to anyone interested in anthropogenic climate change. Secondly, because the outcome of COP21 would define future electricity production, and the extent of the governments' commitment to greener electricity production.
A large proportion of the emission reductions are likely to come from shifting towards renewable electricity sources. This is because switching away from oil as our primary fuel for transportation is decades away, whereas we can switch electricity production now.
Given the huge success of COP21 in Paris, we have illustrated our commitment to switching to low emission alternatives for electricity production. This is a huge statement of intent from global leaders, and will undoubtedly shape the power production landscape of the future
