Turns out the great green dream of harnessing the Highland breeze might come with a hurricane-sized price tag. Word on the grid is that wind power could end up costing twice as much as solar, which is awkward when your entire national strategy is built around the idea that the sky’s gusts are cheaper than gold dust. Looks like someone in Edinburgh forgot to check the weather and the calculator. 🌦️🧮

⚡ When the Turbines Spin, the Bills Begin

It’s almost poetic, really. Scotland — the land of endless wind, whisky, and optimism — suddenly realises its energy crown jewel might be a bit… overvalued. Imagine pitching investors: “Aye, it’s twice the price, but think of the character!” Meanwhile, solar panels are out there quietly doing their job, no bagpipes, no drama, just silently collecting photons like introverts at a rave. 🌞🎧

The irony? We mocked England for not having enough wind, and now they’re laughing back as they install cut-rate solar farms while we build luxury turbines that might as well have tartan seatbelts and gold-plated blades. If only the politicians could bottle their hot air — we’d be energy independent by lunchtime. 🏴🔥
