Over the past three decades, an energy system that utilises sunlight and wind power has gone from being an aspiration, to a reality, to an unstoppable economic force This shows that a net zero economy isn't just a possibility, but a positive vision for the future we must pursue

From political advisor to MP to Secretary of State to LOTO to the backbenches to Energy Secretary once more - you can’t look at the last 3 decades of Labour and climate without running into Ed Miliband. Hear from the man himself about what has been and what is still to come. 👇

Clean power is the economic opportunity of the century, and onshore wind is a vital part of that. For energy security, industrial development, jobs and climate leadership - onshore wind is pivotal. That was my message at the @RenewableUK and @ScotRenew Onshore Wind conference.

Community energy allows local people to produce, consume and own energy where they live, together. It is incredibly positive to see community energy continue to feature so prominently in the delivery of the Clean Power Mission.
🚨 BREAKING: Communities run through the just-announced Strategic Priorities for Great British Energy. This Government is delivering on its commitment to roll out clean, green, community-owned energy. 🌱

The economic argument for clean power is just as strong as the climate argument This is why the only option left for the fossil fuel lobby is to threaten investors with retribution if they don't get what they want

The main point here is that, in spite of opposition from fossil fuel advocates like Net Zero Watch, renewables remain the cheapest way to invest in new energy That's why in even places like Texas, companies are pumping money into clean power https://t.co/yqRnXBuOhA
