While we are certainly seeing a shift to green energy in the UK, unfortunately because storage issues remain largely unresolved, we still contract for significant back-up capacity when normal (renewable) sources of power cannot meet peak demand.

And those 60% of those back up sources remain fossil fuel assets....

If you needed an argument why investment in network storage is required, this would be in it!
