Solar was a 24% learning curve rate, meaning for every doubling of solar power volume out in the world, it'd be 24% reduction in cost. and as you continue to see volume increase in these technologies you will continue to see cost reduction. thank you so much, danielle. so we are now going to go to scotland, to alastair, who has a question about nuclear energy. hello, today we've got representatives of wind and solar, which are often portrayed as the two examples of clean energy. but there are still huge challenges with the amount of land required and energy storage required — challenges whic...

Of technologies at scale. it will certainly develop and deliver lower—cost solutions that are good for the individual, but the biggest challenge ahead of us isn't technology, it's public acceptance. it's support for improved permitting and collaboration on changes to ensure that migration patterns for birds are known, and we don't site wind turbines in those areas or wind farms in that space. but there can'tjust be a wholesale rejection of this technology because of the threat of something that would be negative. that collaboration is the real opportunity for us to work together. so it's a p...

If they can fill the gap for winter power, for instance, in the uk where we use the stored hydrogen, you use that as a power source. so it's traditional power stations but using green hydrogen as the power source. thank you. i'm going to look for another question in the room here at the v&a. hi, my name is shivika from imperial college. i just want to know about the future regarding the airborne wind turbines. what do you think that in the near term there is a future for airborne because google investing in airborne wind turbine system, we've seen one — first wind turbine system in germany. ...

Of us isn't technology, it's public acceptance. it's support for improved permitting and collaboration on changes to ensure that migration patterns for birds are known, and we don't site wind turbines in those areas or wind farms in that space. but there can'tjust be a wholesale rejection of this technology because of the threat of something that would be negative. that collaboration is the real opportunity for us to work together. so it's a partnership, really, it's you delivering the technologies that make the future possible, and us adopting them and making the right choices to protect us f...

Technology being put out into the world comes out with a cost reduction. so each curve will have a different rate of learning. solar was a 24% learning curve rate, meaning for every doubling of solar power volume out in the world, it'd be 24% reduction in cost. and as you continue to see volume increase in these technologies you will continue to see cost reduction. thank you so much, danielle. so we are now going to go to scotland, to alastair, who has a question about nuclear energy. alastair? hello, today we've got representatives of wind and solar, which are often portrayed as the two examp...
