    This seems like a good thread to mention the device we are intending to market that only allows 'Green Electricity' into your property and filters out all the nasty electricity generated by coal/oil/gas. To satisfy the Aldermaston/Greenham Common/CND activists a later version will filter out all electricity generated by nuclear generators; especially that coming from France.

    Any ideas for  a brand name? 'Gretameter' or 'Borismeter'
     Even Octopus claim to have separate power lines direct from their green sources to each customers home - in order to claim that their customers benefit from 100% green energy

    I know an octopus has lots of tentacles; but a UK wide electricity grid!

    Why does this thread's title have a question mark on the end of it?

    Because it was a question by OP and not a statement
