Wasted wind energy could cost Britain £12bn unless National Grid is permitted to construct new pylon lines, warns CEO Zoë Yujnovich. Current constraint payments add £1.5bn annually to energy bills, potentially tripling in five years. National Grid's £31bn expansion plan aims to reduce these costs but faces backlash from communities concerned about landscape damage. The average household charge for the grid is expected to rise from £21 to £43 by 2031. Despite controversy, Yujnovich argues that the expansion will ultimately save consumers money.
