I’ve never understood why we still need a “spinning reserve” that is an actual, physical, spinning mass. Surely all the solar/battery inverters in people’s houses as well as at grid-scale batteries can do the job? Is this another wheeze by the FF companies to keep the hydrocarbons flowing? Spinning...

How are the anti EV brigade going to spin this one? They jump up and down about weight although roads are designed for heavier vehicles, and tyre wear etc.
