>There is an increasing crisis in the UK of negative electricity prices
It seems like an opportunity more than a crisis to me.
There are tons of potential applications for "free" electricity.
* Storage heating/cooling that's basically free
* Manufacturing carbon neutral jet fuel
* Cheaper aluminium production
It could also lead to onshoring of certain industries which previously moved to locales with access to cheap electricity. This would make supply chains more robust.
Some people are gonna get rich off this - partly because more people view it as a threat than an opportunity.
