Susie on Nostr: NESO’s Future Energy Scenarios 2025 model households and businesses cutting peak ...

NESO’s Future Energy Scenarios 2025 model households and businesses cutting peak electricity demand by as much as 54% by 2050, largely by turning heat pumps and other loads down or off when the system is under pressure.

While overall electricity demand is still projected to rise sharply because of electrification, the core strategy remains one of managing scarcity through behavioural flexibility rather than building abundance.

History shows that prosperous countries have always been those that used more energy, not less.

UK policy continues to prioritise demand reduction and peak-shaving over the denser, more reliable power that underpins real economic growth.

This approach is one more example of how successive governments have locked the country into managed decline instead of the high energy, high productivity path that every successful economy has followed.

Energy = Money

Energy drives productivity. This chart shows how higher energy use per capita leads to greater GDP.

Countries like the UK that are trying to cut electricity use risk stalling growth.

Bitcoin turns energy into value, making it a driver of innovation and economic resilience in an energy-powered world. ⚡️
