More than half of clean energy schemes needed for Labour's 2030 target offered grid connection

Reported byGuardian Environment ↗·Sourced by Goodlede

What backs it

Over 700 renewable energy projects (wind, solar, battery storage, gas, and hydro) have been offered grid connection dates since the start of the year, resolving a two-year bottleneck that threatened to delay clean energy deployment into the 2030s.

What it doesn’t mean

This represents projects offered connections, not yet fully operational; actual completion and generation timelines may vary; represents progress toward but not guarantee of meeting 2030 targets.
