The problem with solar and wind is that they're volatile.

You have to store them.

And the overall cost for the system is probably higher.

So you need extra power capacity.

You need extra grid.

You need extra power lines.

And you need storage, which is expensive.

Thanks, Caitlin.

The main implication actually is not so much as practical as in as it resets the mood music around the relationship between the UK and the EU. What we're seeing today is a series of agreements on potentially allowing young people to move more freely between the EU and the UK. There's an agreement to try and make it easier to trade. food and other agricultural products between the two.

There's access to a big defence fund, potentially. So there's a lot of things that are being thrown in here to try and ease tensions and build trust towards potentially a deeper relationship in the future.

The details are still being hashed out, but there's an EU fund being set up where basically finance is being pooled on the EU side and British arms makers would be able to sell to governments using that fund to procure weapons.

And there's a greater emphasis also on more talks on security cooperation, being able to move UK troops through the EU and pooling intelligence and data on criminals and the like is also on the table.

The two big factors are Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the election of Donald Trump. Those are the two factors which really made the EU and the UK realize that actually they needed to band together to weather those two storms. The UK is one of the biggest military spenders in the world and is Europe's biggest military spender.

And so it made sense to bring it closer to the EU as the EU and Europe tries to counter Russia. And Trump's trade war means that Actual like-minded allies should try and do more business with each other as opposed to just focusing on the U.S., which was the U.K. 's plan after Brexit. So we've seen a sort of geopolitical reality check on Brexit.
