Energy Choices
Author:	Roulstone, Tony
Co-Author(s):

Almost 18 months after publishing the Energy Review of 2006, the Government has begun to act - publishing a Climate Change White Paper and concluding the nuclear consultation. This consultation provides the basis for the Government to decide whether (or not) nuclear should be part of the solution to the difficult and urgent issues of climate change and of energy security, identified in the Energy Review. If, as expected, the Government decides to lift the moratorium on building nuclear power stations in the UK, some may consider that the problems of future energy supply, climate change and energy security are solved. That view is wrong. Restarting nuclear would be only the first in a series of choices the Government has to make to create a fully-fledged energy policy for the 21st century. Lifting the nuclear moratorium might be seen as avoiding defeat in the energy security and climate change battles, but what would be a strategy for victory?
