I reckon there will be riots on the streets if they can't supply enough power to keep the lights and heat on over winter.

5% extra capacity last year and 4% extra capacity this year its hardly much of a difference.
Scare mongering IMO that or some one who released the statement makes or has a lot of shares in a candle making company.

Re: Who put the lights out?
Except the margin was 17% just three years ago.
The reason its fallen is because the power stations are getting old and failing. Another one failing and a cold winter would mean there is no reserve left at all.
