20 Aug 2024 Robert Jenrick says “There’s no prizes for being the first country in the world to decarbonize.” The first country to decarbonise will sell low carbon technologies to the world and benefit early from cheaper energy, more jobs and energy security. Jenrick couldn’t be more wrong. [Source]
31 Jul 2024 Last government’s 2023 clean energy auction was a fiasco. No bidders for new offshore wind and onshore wind banned. Very encouraging to see the budget for renewable energy 7 times higher this year. Let’s hope it delivers the jobs and cheap energy we need. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/jul/31/labour-tries-to-attract-clean-energy-contracts-with-record-15bn-for-auction?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other [Source]

25 Jul 2024 In 2013, David Cameron said “Cut the green crap.” Last year Rishi Sunak scrapped his commitment to net zero. Today @Keir_Starmer is setting up publicly owned GB Energy to help grab with both hands the opportunity that clean power offers us. What a wonderful contrast. [Source]
24 Jul 2024 I asked @Keir_Starmer about the Mersey Tidal Project at his first #PMQs It could power 100,000 homes Some MPs want to block the jobs, lower bills & energy security which renewable energy offers Happily we now have a government which has clean power at the heart of its plans https://twitter.com/Bill_Esterson/status/1816123962981507479/video/1 [Source]

19 Jun 2024 Madness. £22 billion of madness through higher bills from the Conservatives. This is why Labour’s plan is for self sufficiency in renewable energy generation, investing in home insulation and supporting the transition to electric vehicles is so important. Time for change. https://twitter.com/carbonbrief/status/1803086649443635276 [Source]

16 Jan 2024 Contrary to the rant from Energy Minister, Graham Stuart, the UK has fallen to 7th for investment in renewables. It's the result of what EY call the "diminishing of green policies". So, actually Graham, your government is allowing this country to fall behind on net zero. https://twitter.com/Bill_Esterson/status/1747241829970444509/video/1 [Source]
