The UK Government is set to revolutionize the energy sector with a new Plan for Change aimed at achieving clean power by 2030. The introduction of a landmark Planning and Infrastructure Bill will prioritize clean energy projects like wind, solar, and hydrogen, enabling them to receive faster grid connections. The initiative, expected to unlock £200bn of investment, will also create thousands of new jobs and enhance energy security in the country. By replacing the outdated 'first come, first served' process with a 'first ready, first connected' system, the government aims to expedite the connection of viable clean energy infrastructure. Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner highlighted the importance of fixing the broken planning system to ensure a more energy-secure future for generations to come. The government's commitment to making planning decisions on at least 150 major clean energy projects in this Parliament underscores its dedication to clean power. The bill includes innovative measures like electricity bill discounts for those hosting grid infrastructure, a scheme to unlock investment in electricity storage, and reforms to accelerate the rollout of electric vehicle chargepoints. These initiatives, combined with reforms addressing planning delays and empowering local voices in applications, mark a significant step towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy landscape.
