# Aye -
It could be a huge boost to African development, too.

There could be a DC supergrid, connecting solar arrays in North Africa, wind and tide power off the British Isles, geothermal energy from iceland, nuclear from Russia, waterfall turbine thingies from Norway... All parts of the grid would contribute at different times, and all would have access to the lot.

I like this idea a lot.

# Iceland certainly needs the money
Giving the UK cheap power would be a nice gesture.

This is quite informative - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC#Renewable_electricity_superhighways
