Auto tldr bot missed this:
Currently, the country’s electricity grid is only permitted to have a maximum of 75 per cent renewables in its energy mix. That meant that some of the energy was exported to Britain and Ireland had to meet the rest of the demand using fossil fuels.
This limit has gone up over the years from 50 to 75 per cent since 2011 and is set to increase further to 95 per cent by 2030. It is in place because using entirely renewable power means changes have to be made to the country’s electricity grid.
Why do they have to burn fossil fuels? That’s fucking stupid
Im torn between giving an upvote for asking a question or giving a downvote for your following sentence given the answer was in the comment you were replying to.
Also, if you ask a question wouldn’t it be wise to wait for the answer before also passing judgement on something.
“Why is this like this? That’s fucking dumb.” Doesn’t quite work does it? How can it be dumb if you don’t know how it works. Why should we trust your assessment on its dumbness if you’ve already conceded you don’t know.
You’re such a removed for typing up 3 paragraphs to something that took me 3 seconds to type up in a passing thought ngl
And not even answering the question
If you want an answer to your question, spend your 3 seconds typing it into a search engine or AI.
