The UK prime minister and Welsh first minister have launched a joint initiative to transform Britain into a clean energy superpower. This mission focuses on significant investments in homegrown energy, which aims to stimulate economic growth, create jobs, and enhance energy independence. Sir Keir Starmer and Baroness Morgan visited a wind farm in West Wales, showcasing the Welsh government's investment in green energy. A key element of this plan is the establishment of Great British Energy, a publicly owned entity that will oversee clean energy projects across the UK. Starmer emphasised the commitment to ending the era of fluctuating energy bills and ensuring clean power by 2030, thereby boosting the country's energy security and economy. In Wales, the government’s renewable energy developer, Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru, is set to generate enough clean energy to power up to a million homes by 2040 and create thousands of jobs. This collaborative effort underscores the UK’s ambition to lead globally in clean energy and achieve long-term energy sustainability.
