Debate

Great British Energy Bill

Contribution

What I appreciate most about Amendment 50 is its focus on the advancement of community energy. By explicitly stating that one of Great British Energy’s strategic priorities will be to support the development of community energy initiatives, we are ensuring that public funds are put to effective use in ways that benefit local communities. That is particularly important for rural areas where farmers and agricultural communities not only are central to food production but play a key role in the transition to a greener energy future.
