I thought generating more than they can use or export was the default for Orkney now?
Which is why they're leading the pack adopting EVs, heat pumps, community heat schemes etc, and the hydrogen plan for the ferries. They have to find something to do with it all, or turn off some wind turbines and solar. So they're migrating every remaining use of fossil fuel possible. Which seems a much better plan than anywhere else.
All that for a tiny fraction of the fuel bills the rest of the UK pays. I wish the mainland was a little more inspired to blatantly copy. :)
