“The UK has always been fortunate in having abundant energy sources. In the Middle Ages, fast flowing rivers were used to turn water-wheels while, in the early 19th

century, the use of steam from coal, enabled Britain to become the world’s first industrialized country. This shaped both the economy and the population of Britain for

the next 200 years. Just when the most accessible, and cheapest supplies of coal began to run short, natural gas (1965) and oil (1970) were discovered in in the North

Sea, and improvements in technology enabled the controversial production of nuclear power “
