The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps his Department is taking through the Clean Energy Industries Sector Plan to support the gas turbine supply chain.

Answered by Michael Shanks

The Clean Energy Industries Sector Plan takes a whole‑system approach to strengthening UK supply chains. Through Great British Energy, we are establishing a £1 billion Clean Energy Supply Chain Fund to support companies with the greatest potential to grow domestic manufacturing and capability.

We are mobilising public and private investment to scale supply chains across clean energy sectors and secure long‑term economic growth. We are also supporting energy‑intensive industries, including those in key manufacturing supply chains, through electricity cost relief and decarbonisation support. Where gas turbine supply chains contribute to the clean energy transition, they can benefit from these wider cross‑cutting interventions to strengthen UK capability and resilience.
