Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has announced a fast track of £300 million funding for offshore wind projects in the UK to facilitate clean energy advancements. This initiative aims to generate jobs and bolster the country's energy security, targeting a transition to clean power by 2030. With the backdrop of an upcoming energy summit, he emphasizes the need for domestic offshore wind supply chain investments. The government also aims to control energy market fluctuations, driving economic growth, and create significant job opportunities in various sectors related to clean energy.
Delivering the plan for change means winning the race for the clean energy jobs of the future, which will drive growth and help us reach clean power by 2030.
It is only by taking back control of our energy that we can protect families and businesses from the rollercoaster of global markets we don't control.
The Prime Minister's funding will be critical to ensuring the UK grasps the industrial opportunities in the offshore wind supply chain.
There's an opportunity to triple our manufacturing capacity over the next decade, adding £25 billion to the UK economy and creating an additional 10,000 jobs in the supply chain.
