Ensuring a stable and reliable power supply is paramount for Britain's economic stability and national security. Overreliance on intermittent renewable energy sources without adequate backup solutions can jeopardize this reliability.

Investing in grid infrastructure and energy storage is crucial, but so is safeguarding energy security by ensuring that the power grid can withstand fluctuations and continue to meet demand under all circumstances.
