Coal-fired power stations cease by 2025

Tuesday 02 May 2017

Prior to the announcement of the General Election, the Government vowed to see all ‘unabated’ coal-fired power stations cease operation by 2025 – those without carbon capture equipment.

The Government gave an undertaking to spend £730 million in support of renewable electricity projects during the Parliament’s lifetime. It remains to be seen whether that pledge makes it into the Conservatives Election manifesto.

It is amazing to look back at this article after so many years and to see what has changed!!! Do you think the same?
