About this Event
Power to the People, presented by Cornish surfer and geologist Lucy Cotton, explores the exciting opportunities, huge challenges facing us in our efforts to wean ourselves off fossil fuels.
With fantastic resources of wind, sun, tides, geothermal heat and critical minerals, Cornwall is in a unique position to drive the whole country’s clean energy revolution. However, the UK’s 100-year-old grid infrastructure means this potential can’t currently be harnessed – with new renewables. Some projects are unable to get connected until 2036. Meanwhile, large numbers of people in Cornwall live in badly insulated homes they can’t afford to heat due to massive energy price rises caused by our dependence on foreign gas.
