Shale is just gas extraction so likely covered already.

Great stuff.

There was a TV prog on not too long ago about the UK grid... apparently they have to pump the hydro water upstream  to cope with the demand for all the kettles that go on during UK prime time.

Good to know the tech keeps Brits armed with a cuppa.
