The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether offshore wind projects developed with help from Great British Energy's early development work and investment will be co-owned by Great British Energy.

Answered by Michael Shanks

Great British Energy will be a publicly-owned energy company that will invest in, own and operate projects. Great British Energy will support the Government's clean power mission by partnering with industry, local authorities and communities.

The exact detail and timeline of specific projects will be set out as appropriate by Great British Energy itself, as an operationally independent company.
