If there's a massive alien abduction in the United Kingdom, you'll have a longer chance of survival if you head to this place.

Last UK Country To Turn the Lights Off In Case of Alien Abduction

If there were a massive alien abduction in the UK, you'd certainly want to go to a place where you'd have bigger chances of survival. Probably, to a country or area where you could hide longer.

Google's artificial intelligence-powered large language model chatbot, Gemini, gave us an insight into which part of the UK would be the last to have power.

Except for isolated, self-sufficient communities, the UK's regions that might be able to cling to artificial light for a bit longer are probably characterized by three very particular features: robust wind resources, hydroelectric dams, and smaller, localized networks.

The actual circumstances of the alien abduction and the whims of the weather and maintenance schedules would determine the winner. But these isolated spots, fueled by natural sources and built for self-sufficiency, present the ideal opportunity for an extended, solitary vigil.

It went on to explain that the south of England wouldn't stand a chance. It estimates that these three nations and regions would provide the last remaining artificial light in the UK, except in particularly isolated places.

  • Scotland: Some regions of Scotland stand a fair chance due to their emphasis on wind power and a large number of hydroelectric dams.
  • Wales: The country is in the running because it has several wind farms and hydropower units.
  • Northern England (Cumbria, Northumberland): With their abundant wind resources, these regions may witness a little increase in the duration of wind-powered generation.

Gemini, however, added that it's crucial to keep in mind that the outage wouldn't last forever, even in these places. All sources would ultimately stop working without human assistance because of improper upkeep, reaching capacity, or other unanticipated problems.

Therefore, the most likely last light in the UK would depend on the specific setup of a remote, self-sufficient facility (research station, offshore platform with natural gas capture) and its reliance on renewable sources or long-lasting backups, even though Scotland might have slightly better chance due to its focus on renewables.

Countries Leading in Renewable Energy

More and more countries, especially in Europe, have shifted to renewable energy. Renewable energy is good because we never run out of it. It can operate without human intervention, and it generates fewer greenhouse gases.

With a shift in renewable energy, planet Earth has become more sustainable. These are the countries leading the transition -- Norway, with 98.5 percent of its energy from renewable sources; Brazil (89.2 percent) and New Zealand (86.6 percent). The United Kingdom also makes it to the top 10 with 43.4 percent of its energy from clean, renewable sources like wind and solar panels.
