Energy Eye - Electricity Report
According to National Grid's Summer
Outlook Report 2008, coal could be
the most competitively placed fuel for
generation this Summer rather than
gas. This is reflected in the continuing
upward trend of EU ETS allowances,
as the dirtier coal fired plant will
produce more CO2 than gas fired
plant. However, with the Large
Combustion Plant Directive in effect,
meaning that many coal-fired power
stations already have to limit the
number of hours that they operate,
the grid could be severely exposed should we have any particularly
warm days coinciding with
maintenance outages.
