Vattenfall's response to the UK Government's Industrial Strategy and Clean Energy Industries Sector Plan
Responding to the publication of the Industrial Strategy and Clean Energy Industries Sector Plan Vattenfall's UK Country Manager, Claus Wattendrup, said:
“The Government is right to back clean energy as a growth engine for UK jobs and skills. Offshore wind already supports over 50,000 UK jobs and is scaling up fast through initiatives like the Offshore Wind Industrial Growth Plan, and we now await the Government’s Onshore Wind strategy to help unlock even more investment, jobs, and energy security.
“We must avoid own-goals along the way, however: the benefits of district heating must not be overlooked, whereas zonal pricing in Great Britain risks future investments without cutting bills.”
