Reposted by EnergyFrinEllie Mae O'Hagan @elliemaeohagan.bsky.social · 06/11/2025Important thread here on the possibility of scrapping ECO. I would add that when ECO was cut in 2013, 10,000 people lost their jobs. That's more than 3 times as many than Scunthorpe steel works and a whopping 20 times more than Grangemouth oil refinery 12519
