Yes, old pennies were d. Thruppence was 3d.
The reason I didn't ask is because there is no single answer. It depends on how many of their systems they install, how deep the mine. There is, effectively, no limit to how much they can store. How ever many 4 ton blocks that can be stored top and bottom, so potentially gigawatts
One was inside, the other outside! I loved the outside one.
When I was born (70 years ago) this is what things cost. The house I grew up in was well posh. It cost £2,500!
Always believe the internet, it's always right, espcially if you ask AI that's owned by a psychotic billionaire weirdo. 100% accurate always :-)
A genius way of utilising old assets (big holes in the ground) and storing mind boggling amounts of electricity

Can we spread this single piece of information around a bit, not just on Bluesky. Send a paper printout to your grumpy old 'net zero will make us all poor' Uncle, or Auntie.
I've been thinking about very big boats.
The very big, heavy and extra dirty ones are in the news ATM

For very long term viewers of my disjointed output, here's a Carpool flashback with a difference, Katie White, MP, Climate Minister, drives me around in her electric Fiat 500.

The real insanity isn’t how much oil prices have spiked, it’s that we’re still burning oil for energy.
Found this little beauty in an old diary. I didn't make it up. Don't know who did.
Remember there's nothing to stop you living your dreams, apart from thousands of far more talented people working much harder than you.
Two of our presenters, Imogen and Jack, both drive electric cars and both have nowhere to charge at home. I readily agree that it is harder and can be more expensive.
Of courese we need more charging, and legislation to force landlords to fit chargers in multi occupation dwellings with car parks
Just heard that enquiries to various car companies in the UK about their pure electric models have increased 'tenfold' in the last week. Interesting not petrol hybrids, which obviously require petrol, all the time... because they're petrol powered vehicles.
Just an observation.
Just to explain, the rather catchy and memorable URL for my bookshop is a temporary holding thing. It will have a proper one soon.

My new bookshop has very limited stock, but it's open for modest business. New and old titles are coming.
Have a look.

Just up on the Everything Electric (nee Fully Charged Show) blog. Are electric vans up to the job?
(Hint, of course they are for goodness sake)

I hope you enjoy watching these as much as I enjoy putting them together. And yes, electric vehicles outsold petrol burners for the first time!!

I’m so glad to read this Ketan, I find those two betting sites truly evil.
Brrrr. A very chilly review of a really impressive electric car.
Jack Scarlett went north from Oslo in midwinter Norway in a Kia EV2

Something to counter the global nightmare being thrust upon us by a couple of tragic insecure old men.
Um, you know the whole war, oil price, violent absurdity and waste thing.
Explainify this.
Venezuela, world's biggest oil and gas reserves.
Iran, world's second biggest oil and gas reserves.
Surely it's simplistic to suggest there's a link?
Would it be a sensible option to reduce our dependency?
I've just written a review of the 100% electric Citroen e-Dispatch. It might be moving in more ways than one.

So booldly annoying isn’t it. I try so hard not to post typoes.
Top oil reserve countries on Earth:
1 - Venezuela ✓
2- UAE
3 - Iran ✓
4 - Canada
Any questions?
There's always a fucking tweet. Always.
#ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles
Bombing Iran. Iran retaliating, clever.
Now no one is talking about the Epstein files and the 38,000 mentions that the old orange loser achieves.
Very clever, and also applauding and tragic.
Remember that bloke who said he did ‘not have sexual relations with that woman.’
You know, talking about the woman he had sex with.
Well, he hung about with trumps best pal, on his island, but saw and did ‘nothing wrong.’
LOL.
If it ever starts to be summer I will be appearing in the Cosmic Shambles Forest at Latitude festival 23rd to 26th July.
Very sad news about Rob Grant, who, along with Doug Naylor created the long running comedy series Red Dwarf.
He passed away on Wednesday, Rob was a very funny man with a talent for stinging reposts.
When I was in Australia, 2 things happened. It was sunny, and I went for a walk on a farm that was covered in nearly 1 million solar panels. And 6,500 very happy sheep.
