Today the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero has published more detail on its plans for Great British Energy. Including a new partnership with The Crown Estate to boost offshore wind. Good Energy's CEO Nigel Pocklington had this to say: "By harnessing our resources to reduce our dependency on imported fossil fuels, the new Government’s early initiatives are the right ones to bring down bills and support our environment. "Large or innovative projects like those to be supported by Great British Energy are an important part of the story. So is small scale solar power, which can also make millions of us the owners of our power generation. "The government has announced plans for a ‘rooftop revolution’ — solar power will be as important a source of energy security as offshore wind, and we are eager to know more” https://lnkd.in/epuphk4N

We agree with the Government's climate advisors that green taxes should be shifted from electricity to encourage electrification and take up of heat pumps. Our Chief Executive, Nigel Pocklington said: “Shifting green levies off electricity bills ironically sounds like a green policy rollback, but it’s the one thing that could lower bills and the country’s carbon footprint rapidly. If these were moved into general taxation, they would better fund the infrastructure government want to build, be levied more fairly and bring down bills for everyone. All whilst making the cost of running a heat pump or EV unbeatable.” Read more: https://bbc.in/3WhHHIU #GreenEnergy #ClimateAction #SustainableLiving #HeatPumps #RenewableEnergy #EcoFriendly

Donald Trump pulled one of the world's top polluting countries out of the Paris Climate Agreement. President Biden brought it back in, then passed one of the most important pieces of climate legislation in history. Whoever is in the White House next needs to maintain momentum for our planet. https://bit.ly/3LzZpCs #ClimateChange
