Will existing coal-fired energy in the UK hold on for longer than people expected, or have to close earlier than expected? It all hinges on a proposed amendment to the Energy Bill currently going through Parliament. Here’s an article in Carbon Brief (dated November 2013) that discusses this further. See also an article in the Guardian, also dated November 2013, and a blog post at Trillion Fund discussing the matter. In a Coursera course on Designing Cities, one of the lectures showed some emerging ideas about driverless vehicles and how city spaces could be restructured, without kerbs and other traditional separators between vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians. The artistic representations are visually pleasing, and the idea itself has some attractions. I'm thrilled to be associated with this recently built solar array, in my capacity as a Director of the Low Carbon Hub. Here's an article about it (with pictures).
