Even in Scotland, Hydro Electric is very small. Not even as much as we get from average wind.
Mr Cameron is begging the Frogs to take our money and sell us electricity at more than the market price, to persuade them to build some atomic boilers here.
On windy days, we have recently been getting more from wind than from Nuclear (but several reactors have been closed down for repair or maintenance this autumn, as they are all old and wearing out).
