Its worse than that - the majority of the nuclear fleet reach the end of their planned life around that time as well. We are looking at nearly 50% generation gap with current plans from 2015 onwards.
There's nothing that turns on lefties as much as the chance to start rationing something, and really feel in control.

There are other plans to reduce this gap that does nor rely on poxy windmills, but we don't have enough forests to feed them for long.
Its my niche and the money is good!

Dont expect there to be any gas CH in 20 years.
And I live in Scotland where the SNP want our 2 Nuclear Power stations that provide 60% of our power to be switched off and not replaced.

Here in Germany they have loads of power stations and they still wear scarves indoors.

We might have to learn to wear clothes indoors again rather than heating houses to tropical temperatures.
