The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether GB Energy will produce energy.

Answered by Michael Shanks

Yes. Great British Energy will invest in and own clean power generation assets, which will produce clean, cheap and homegrown energy and make Britain energy secure. Great British Energy will not be simply an investment vehicle; it is a publicly-owned energy company that will take stakes in the projects it owns, manages and operates.
