IWEA told us two years ago that fossil fuel prices were rising


More wind on the system will provide a hedge against rising fossil fuel prices, resulting in lower and more stable energy prices for consumers while helping us achieve our energy and emissions targets - IWEA, 2013, Submission to Tipperary County Council.

In 2013, the Irish Wind Energy Association told us that wind would provide a hedge against rising fossil fuel prices.

But last time I went to the petrol pumps, fuel was so cheap, I was able to fill up my tank for the first
time in many years.

However, when my last electricity bill came through the door, I was barely able to pay it.

Why do our Government continually listen to people backing the wrong horse ?
