Shale Gas will solve this in a few years.
I think we're all gonna have to go on a diet of prunes, cabbage, baked beans & curry & stick a rubber hose up our arse
Really glad BG failed to transfer my account across like the inept bastards they are.

and drugs!the problem is they can charge what they like and people still need to buy it no matter what... like petrol and water!
Look at how we are currently embracing solar - this week the government managed to amend solar policy, so the bigger the solar plant you build the less you make per kw/h and by a very long way too!
As others have said, it won't have a huge impact on price. Fifty years ago nuclear energy was going to give us electricity so cheaply that it would be practically free. Shale gas will go the same way.

Basically traditional energy and fuel are the treasury's bread & butter; cheaper or renewable resources are either buried or embraced and then taxed to death.
