geck i dont thing uk will have those power and gas problems this winter (not everything on bbc is the truth) if the powers that be are happy to export power to the french for the first time i can think off in these spring/summer months, new big windfarm going online also. Drax scottish project is a kind of storage for electric.

"UK continuing to export electricity and gas to the EU"

Wonder if the EU will export back to us when we need it this winter???

Why aren't we "storing all our power" so we have enough this winter?

Opening a small position on DRX. Share looks toppy but I like it as a hedge to European gas/electricity chaos over the winter.

UK continuing to export electricity and gas to the EU and there is no limit on wholesale power prices now.

[castleford tiger] 19/7/2022 07:46

where is MR negative?

[rolo7] 16/7/2022 17:40

Yep but not since April and never again while half its nuclear power stations are offline.

[castleford tiger] 16/7/2022 14:52

france export to us

[rolo7] 15/7/2022 20:20

UK won't have blackout UK electric usage is well down and people will now use less as costs, it's the EU reliance on Russian gas that the lights will go out begging the UK to put our gas power stations on and supply them which is what's happening at moment. France,Germany and certainly italy all net importers of electricity.

"we don't have storage yet!"

Why on earth not?

We've been giving £20bn gross to EU for decades, and £15bn annually in foreign aid...
And we don't have any storage capacity so we're going to have black outs in Winter!!

What kind of collective idiocy has been running our country for the last 30-40 years?

Heres an idea, make a hole in a massive mountain to make a reservoir, pump water into that when the eco windmills are turning and the sun is shining on the PVs - then, at night you let the water out through hydro generator to use the stored power. Bet the company that comes up with that would be worth buying into...

[castleford tiger] 15/7/2022 17:40

we don't have storage yet!

[geckotheglorious] 15/7/2022 10:54

Why are we exporting electricity when power cuts beckon this Fall/Winter?
We need to be storing our surplus.

[rolo7] 15/7/2022 10:47

UK an exporter of electricity since April all good news for drax, UK nuclear power stations decommissioning slowly, half of french nuclear power stations offline how are the EU to keep the lights on this winter?

[disc0dave45] 11/7/2022 17:33

Looks like the news at lunchtime from Boris that there won't be any windfall tax on energy generator companies went down well!.

[rolo7] 06/7/2022 17:59

Coal this winter no surprise as half of french nuclear power stations are offlibe

[zcaprd7] 21/6/2022 16:38

They should have stuck with the coal!

Beeks must admit halfpenny appeared from now where just as the shares peaked seen it many times before don't get the logic on such a quiet board but then life's a game which is short just make sure you don't waste it as one day reality may dawn when its too late good luck with your investing

580 soon some say 540 or less. Very very Risky and a disaster with Dividends falling towards Zero

[beeks of arabia] 13/6/2022 06:57

Halfpenny sounds like a proper clueless chancer.

[halfpenny] 13/6/2022 06:48

Breaking news a disaster for DRX. Investor confidence in electricity generators has been dampened by reports Chancellor Rishi Sunak could extend the windfall tax to renewable energy sources. Now seems very likely. Fall to 600p and less soon..

[halfpenny] 08/6/2022 08:53

Yes this is a Dead Cat Bounce as we Fall Down towards 580 or less. Bank also agrees..
