In February, a High Court judge described Tony Blair’s energy review as "seriously flawed", "misleading" and "manifestly inadequate and unfair". Mr Justice Sullivan ruled in favour of Greenpeace - which had brought a judicial review - declaring the energy review process unlawful.

In 1974, the BBC launched Ceefax, Richard Nixon was kicked out of office and the last new coal-fired power station was built in the UK. Most things have moved on a fair bit since then – but apparently not for the UK's energy companies.

Economic model shows route to lower carbon emissions, less gas, lower costs and no new nuclear for Scotland.

Putting new nuclear power stations at the heart of Scotland's energy strategy will lead to higher carbon emissions, more reliance on gas and be more expensive when compared to producing Scottish energy locally, according to a report released today.
