- Mt talk in the Isle was designed to cover the broad spectrum of climate realism assuming the audience were new to the subject.
With questions etc it lasted over 3 hours and will be shown as a series.
I used a lot of short videos in it. This is one of them. Its on battery storage and the Green Party.
Nett Zero, an impossible solution to a non-existent problem
See you think the problem is the climate, the government's problem is how to placate and control the population
You took the words right out of my mouth! I received the budget amount from my council for the net zero nonsense, which I wish I hadn’t it’s made me so cross especially as the town is becoming rundown and services like public toilets being closed
You are wrong, slightly as you are looking at the other side of the equation. It all equals 0 when you simply remove the people and that is the part they've not said out loud
I can tell Im really going to enjoy this forthcoming series already Paul, cheers! 😅
This women is a total joke. She hasn't got a clue. Yet she's the Green leader?
Yes she is
Doesn't say much for the quality or the intelligence of the rest of the Green Party does it ?..
They are never gettig my vote, how they are a prominent party makes you wonder where the party gets its money ?.
Why NOT get the wind turbine turning a elastic band then when the wind dont blow the band can turn the turbine, Sorry I'd be laughed at or locked up.
An other great video, Paul.
I hope someone in power listens to you and stops this madness.
I was in the Gas industry for many years. There was a potential major incident that could have happened. But I discovered a very simple solution to the dilemma. The above management ignored it and became very hostile toward me because they wanted to use a solution that would have cost millions and major supply issues in the transmission supply. Thankfully someone high up in the company listened to me. Problem solved. The hostility towards me remained until I retired. Sounds familiar....
Your experience reminds me of a book I read donkey's years ago called "the theory of 21", basically saying that when you have a great idea that is in everyone's interest to implement, roughly only every 21st person you approach i likely to take it seriously because the vast majority of people have their own reasons for stopping you shining, resentments, wanting to climb the greasy pole, some takin your idea and pretending it is theirs - The author was therefore advising strategies for getting to that 21st person and bypassing the time wasters. Sounds like you succeeded in doing that, so all credit to you.
@@stephenbrough8132 Thank You. I see Paul debating with these idiots and it just reminds me of people I've had no choice but to deal with all my life. Talking of books... The War Of Art.... It's all about the negativity when like myself you are successful at something. I was a very successful photographer in the 2000s, winning many national competitions. Published many times. My name in articles about photography. I was very humble about it all so thought it should be ok if I mention my successes. I gave up.. I might as well have walked up to people and howled verbal abuse. I was in an office when I received a phone call telling me that I'd won a large competition with £3000 worth of photo gear. I was very humble, finished call, I mentioned to my colleagues in the office about my success and completely ignored. These were people who I got on very well with and had a good working relationship .. I stopped mentioning it anymore. When I see Paul with these idiots. I think they are everywhere.. However it hasn't stopped me speaking my mind, especially about the climate lie...
Vicky Pollard designing an energy grid
Yeah, but, no, but...
Paul I look forward to your article.
As I told you previously I have 20 years personal experience of living without electricity.
Great teaser
looking forward to hearing this series and how the public common sense took to it with their questions. Great work.
320wh battery for 300,000 homes.
What was the price / kwh 75,000,000 pounds/196,000 kwh = 383 pounds/kwh so my 15kwh home battery which cost me about 1600 pounds call it 2000, DIY with lifpo4 new quality cells would cost if the state and tesla did it almost 6,000 pounds. Lucky I installed 30kwh.
Oh and install that with solar, and people could just use grid for backup say 90% of time and in 6-9 years payback, and then at least 10 years free, but mostly free from price highks and the nonsense manipulation and rolling blackouts which are on their way.
So if people did think battery was a good idea it would still be better to do it on an individual basis in their own homes.
I heard about the Pillswood site, a couple of years ago. It was stated that it could provide 1% of UK demand for 4 minutes. The size of the site was equivalent to 2 football pitches.
Rough estimates, to provide the UK demand for 1 day would require an area equivalent to the size of Greater Manchester. And if we had a lull for a whole week......
@@rjones6219 to do the 9 days cover when wind went in 2018 you need 7,200,000 MW hours
4minutes, pleasing as I'll just have enough time to shutdown my PC
Thanks Paul. We recently had a news item here on unprecedented fibre glass found in UK shellfish. I wonder where that's coming from. Perhaps cavitation, dust, rain, hail, snow, flying critters and in some cases sea spray might be involved.

Getting technical for a moment - 320Watts. That’s the allowance given for running one home in the figures. Where did it come from? Somewhere I dredged up a memory that an average home uses about 8KWH of electricity per day. Well, 24h of 320W is 7.68KWH if my sums are right. Clearly the actual load does vary, as refrigerators power up every 20 minutes or so, at night when most appliances aren’t used the quiescent power used will be quite low, but powerful appliances use loads more energy. So the maths work out as long as ‘average’ mean 24hour demand is used. However. Humans tend to use more power at midday and traditionally lots of kettles got turned on in advert breaks on ITV. Demand is thus complex and maybe with AI can be predicted. However - the infuriating thing is battery storage is still tiny compared to the potential demand, especially if EV and domestic heat pump use increases. They cannot cheat electricity into manifesting as easily as the Bank of England prints money with quantitative easing. There is some idea of EVs being used as battery storage - the grid will be allowed to rob your plugged in EV of some electricity if the grid is running low….. but the ultimate problem is if you aren’t generating the electricity it doesn’t exist. This is not addressed.
Just a few reflective thoughts inspired by your interesting comment.
I'm not too well up on battery technology but I sometimes wonder about the problem I often hear about, regarding the need to avoid charging Lithium ion (I guess) batteries to 100% or discharging fully - between 20% - 80% is what I keep hearing is the ideal for EV batteries. For a while I probably had the wrong idea, thinking of older battery technology, when people used to say batteries had "memory" so if you didn't charge them correctly, that would limit how much they could ever be charged. I'm guessing that doesn't apply here. I just wondered whether there might be any negative consequences from frequent charging / discharging within that 20% - 80% range. Presumably they have strategies to maximise battery life. (Forgive me, I'm just thinking aloud, making idle chit chat I guess - don't feel obliged to respond)
That Quantitive Easing subject reminded me of my sister trying to give me some reasurance that the online National Debt pages are "nothing to worry about", sending me some video from a guy with Green Party connections I think, a Sheffield Uni lecturer I believe, a chartered accountant ... it's all a bit beyond me but he went through each part of national debt explaining why we don;t actually want it to be paid - or at least that was the overall impression I was left with.
I only became curious about that after watching a very interesting 3 hour presentation made by a guy on the DemystifySci ch., 3 weeks ago, proposing a better way of achieving net zero (not that I buy into the rational behind it anyway) - not involving wind, solar, not even nuclear except in the short term ... His proposals (he claimed) are proven technology that couild be implemented in any country, a kind of local, circular economy, where the waste from one process is actually the fuel for the next, obviating the need for the huge amounts of copper (and other ore) he calculated are simply not known to exist, even if we recycled every bit mined in the last 30 years, I think he said we would need about 4 x more so it's literally impossible to implement the current net zero strategy world wide and a very wasteful way of going about it.
But in explaining all this he had to go into the world money system and all sorts of factors complicating matters, showing the US national debt and others, with that fascinting but quite scary live chart going up at an alarming rate. I have nothing useful to add, I'm just a baffled layman trying to take in pieces of this huge jigsaw puzzle, wishing parts weren't intentionally hidden, forbidden viewing lol.
I'd like to have a third watch of that video in case that guy has a good point that other experts might remark on. He's some mining expert whose PHD he jokes now stands for POST HOLE DIGGER since he lost his $180,000 PA salary when China no longer wanted the Australian ore, and had to work on an organic farm, which he uses as an analogy to some extent for his "circular economy" idea.
😂or should I cry...
She's talking BS. Good god.
Thanks Paul!
These people remind me of someone buying flat packed furniture and throwing the instructions away. They have no clue.
😁👍👍👍
I have a report from USA and scientists have worked out batteries would cost $350 trillion . I interpolate here that would be £30 trillion to cover the whole uk inn2050 when we will need 400 Gigawatts up from 100 now. Added population ,computers stations and AI have to be taken into account. also dissipation and recharging of batteries when depleted as rapid recharging will be needed whilst still keeping the grid chargedfor normal use.

Agreed.
Bit of a dent in the standard of living then!
Also no way of getting the energy to recharge - the entire model is based on a 7 year old's concept of grid supply.
I have the horrible prospect of one of these BESS sites (50mw) being built on raised ground right up against my back garden fence.
Just for interest "Dave takes it on" had a video about this bbc article "Too much of a good thing? Spain's green energy can exceed demand" which basically is complaining that Spanish people are using less grid power than they use to because they installed their own solar etc, and the grid generators are suffering and need help to stay afloat, or rather to make the crazy profits they are used to.
As we all know, even the " wonderful wizard of Oz " can't break the laws of physics, not to mention the economy and what happens when one of these battery banks self emulate and the hold thing goes of line during what is already a crisis.!?
Paul please look unto the Gravity Site in Bridgwater and opium power.
May never happen.
Are the battery storage times even worse than the figures from the battery farm owners that you are quoting?
I would be interested to know if the 196MwH storage capacity claimed by the Pillswood BESS Battery farm is the theoretical capacity based on the Amp/Hour delivery of the batteries multiplied by the fully charged voltage of the batteries to give an unachievable Amps X Hours X Volts = MwH capacity (assuming an unrealistic unity Power Factor where the Grid is an entirely resistive load)
As the batteries discharge to 0V, the current drawn logically increases to infinity, and there must be a point where the invertors will shut down to prevent damage to the batteries and the invertors.
Domestic 12 volt DC invertors used by caravan and motor home owners shut down when the battery voltage has dropped to 9V, suggesting that they can only consistently provide 25% of the energy stored in them.
I appreciate that the discharge characteristics of the Lithium Batteries used in battery farms and the technology used in domestic and commercial invertors are entirely different, but would be interested to know at what discharge level a BESS would shut down to prevent thermal runaway of the Lithium batteries, and how many KwH of electricity can be realistically stored.
I think they shut down at 2% to prevent damage but the number of cycles lifetime can be reduced by the number of times below 20%. However that is my guess from my perusal experience.
Have you or they taken into account the extra elec needed for transport and for heating and hot water. The capacity would need to be 4 times the present provision. Population.electrification of everything, AI and computers stations. In uk it is estimated at 400 Gigawatts from 100 Gigawatts now. Batteries would need to. Incorporate this so nomes are 20% elec now but 80% comes from mostly gas. So without gas. Heating, cooking, hot water, gas fires, plus EV there would be a massive increase in demand in Winter.
Most houses would need a larger main which costs Incresed mains fuse to 100 amps at least. New houses would also have an increased demand but better heating efficiency. Solar panels and battery storage will help but only to a minor degree .
Yes have considered all of that and it is impossible.

She hasn't got a clue on how bad these batteries are for the environment and how they're made. Give me new oil and gas any day over Lithium and Cobalt mining the later using mostly child labour in the Congo who have the worlds largest deposits of Cobalt.
