Extract from press release by Scottish Government today:
Scotland generated enough electricity from renewable sources last year to meet the equivalent of 90.1% of the country’s total electricity consumption. In 2019, the electricity generated from renewable sources was enough to charge almost 6.7 billion mobile phones for a year and the amount of renewable heat generated was equivalent to the gas use of every building in Glasgow.

I think it was along the lines of —
“wind power from Scotland will power jobs in England and Wales”.
Jobs in Scotland? As the Labour MP said ” who cares”.
England NEEDS electricity. The interconnectors from the continent work at full capacity–Scotland is an exporters. Fine with me if they pay a fair price.
A hard border? Scotland exports to England, electricity, gas, oil, prime good and drink–all of which will find a ready market.
England exports to us white goods, cars , services–all ubiquitous and easily replaced.

Westminster wasting £Billions on Nuclear. Scotland has to pay for it. Scotland pays more for fuel and energy because it is colder. Instead of parity, being in surplus and nearer the source. Scotland could sell it for £Billions.
