Petition Keep 75p/month on electricity bills to continue Renewables NOT Fracking &Nuclear

The Gov are proposing to cut FIT subsidies for deployment of Renewable technologies in the UK claiming they want to reduce burden on domestic energy bills.
A recent DECC study calculated this burden was in fact just £9/year (75p/month) in 2014
The alternative is NUCLEAR & FRACKING.

More details

By 2020 this 75p per month would have risen to less than £1.17 to maintain the current rate of renewables deployment.

Reference: DECC Report - Performance and Impact of the Feed-in Tariff Scheme: Review of Evidence:

See - Table 2 Page 7 - Impact on domestic bill

Instead the alternative is Government propose to spend £25-Billion on Nuclear, using either Tax Payer's money or investment from China.

Nuclear will also need to be subsidised and so also add burden to energy bills.

Renewables make sense.
