I have no idea what the hydro scheme currently costs! It was built in the 50s, it’s there and it works, that’s all I know. People were talking about storing excess for use at peak times and I know hydro can do that, which is why I mentioned it. You could be right about building spare FF units being cheaper than maintaining existing infrastructure, time will tell.
