YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Ratcliffe-on-Soar in Nottinghamshire has generated electricity since the 1960's, however it will now be decommissioned, making the UK the first G7 nation to exit coal-fired power.

The closure emphasises the transition towards more renewable energy.

However, with more power coming from greener sources, the cost of energy could increase.

Sky's data and economics editor Ed Conway has more on the figures.
