’s government will allow new wind farms to be built after months of uncertainty over the policy.
Planning permission will only be granted to those who show any impacts identified by the community will be ‘appropriately’ addressed, the levelling up department said.Liz Truss and Boris Johnson are among the Tory MPs who were pushing for an overhaul of the policy in the face of Britain’s energy crisis.
Shadow levelling up secretary Lisa Nandy accused Mr Sunak and her ministerial counterpart Michael Gove of being ‘too weak’ to stand up to the backbench rebellion, claiming they are ‘in office but not in power’. The onshore wind ban is not properly lifted, there is no clarity but more delay and that means higher bills and less energy security.Dan McGrail, from RenewableUK, said lifting the de-facto ban would help generate more cheap power to help hard-pressed billpayers.
