Community Energy

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps he is taking to support community energy projects.

Answered by Kerry McCarthy

Through Great British Energy we will turbocharge community energy. Our Local Power Plan will mean communities taking back control of their energy, bringing cheap clean power and energy security.

I look forward to further details being announced as the GBE Bill goes through its final stages.
