Electricity Generation: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, if his Department will make an assessment of the potential merits of independent networks in delivering network investment.
Answered by Michael Shanks
Independent network operators have an important role to play in delivering electricity network investment and, as such, are an enabler of the Government’s clean energy superpower and economic growth missions. As well as supporting investment in clean energy and low carbon technologies, independent networks contribute to the delivery of a smart and flexible electricity system and of grid connections for new housing developments.
