• Building a Low Carbon Economy report

  The UK is the windiest country in Europe, so much so that we could power our country several times over using this free fuel.

  The Government’s Renewable Energy Strategy states that the ambitious target of generating 15% of all the UK’s energy from renewables by 2020 means that around 45% of electricity will have to come from renewable sources.

  The report ‘Building a Low Carbon Economy’ stresses that onshore and offshore wind together can deliver 30% of the UK’s electricity supply by 2020.
