UK COMES UP WITH "BRILLIANT" PLAN TO END ENERGY CRISIS

Britain has come up with a solution to the energy crisis, namely a series of 2,400-mile-long cables connecting the UK to a huge solar farm located in the Moroccan desert. 

As reported by the Daily Express:

As part of the latest move to tackle the energy crisis, the UK has granted planning permission for XLCC's HVDC subsea cable manufacturing operations, which will be based in Hunterston, Scotland. Once the construction is completed, the factory will begin building four 3,800km long cables as part of the Xlinks project, [that] will connect the UK to a huge solar farm in Morocco.

In a major "first of its kind" development, Xlinks, an energy startup, will lay down undersea cables that will harness energy from Guelmim Oued Noun in Morocco.

The project is expected to generate 10.5GW of zero-carbon electricity from the sun and 3.6 GW of wind energy for an average of 20+ hours a day.

This will be enough energy to power 7 million homes. The energy will not only be clean and green, but will also be cheaper than nuclear:

Xlinks has previously noted that the cable will provide clean, renewable energy at half the price of what the UK will pay for their upcoming nuclear power plant Hinkley Point C.

At £48/MWH, the expected cost of the energy from the Xlinks cable is far lower than the £92.50 that the Government has agreed to pay for Hinkley Point C, which could help ease the current energy crisis, which is throwing millions of Britons into fuel poverty.

One problem however is that the project is projected to take four years to produce -- which is after the next election -- and is estimated to cost around £16billion, half of which is for constructing the cable.

Projections and estimates almost always fall behind targets and go over budget.
