After much research and deliberation, we decided to ignore the doubters (George Monbiot, perhaps), and are now helping out the National Grid by generating photo-voltaic electricity. We went on line last week, so don't hesitate to have that extra-hot shower as the grid's capacity to support your needs and wants is just that little bit greater (and "greener"). As for me, well, in future, when the Paddington train crawls past Didcot's designer power station, I shall gaze at its gazillion tonnes of coal with a superior, zero-emissions, sort of stare – even if it is producing slightly more electricity than we are – and at night!
