How will David Cameron keep the lights on?
Telegraph.co.uk

By Christopher Booker

EXCERPT:

Neither of the main parties seems to have any idea how we are to meet the looming shortfall in power, warns Christopher Booker.

As the election approaches, two issues should transcend all others.

One, obviously, is what the parties propose to do about the £178 billion deficit in government spending. But another, equally terrifying – as this column has warned for years – is what is to be done to avert the fast-looming crisis in Britain’s electricity supplies. With 40 per cent of our generating capacity due to disappear in the next few years, as 14 of our major nuclear and coal-fired power stations are forced to close, how do the parties propose to keep Britain’s lights on and our computer-dependent economy functioning?
