Clean homegrown energy is the only solution that will futureproof the UK, says WWF

Angela Francis, director of policy solutions, WWF said: "In an unstable world, we know that depending on fossil fuels means households and industries are stuck on an oil and gas price rollercoaster that is making us more vulnerable and destroying our environment. And that’s why today’s announcement matters so much.

Accelerating the rollout of clean homegrown energy is the only solution that will futureproof the UK against shocks, protect bill payers, and help people switch to cheaper electric transport and heating, all while safeguarding our natural world and the species that depend on it, and protecting us from the worsening impacts of climate change.”
