Secretary of State welcomes REA Manifesto
REA Manifesto: Growing the Renewable Energy Economy published.
Welcoming the new report ‘REA Manifesto: Growing the Renewable Energy Economy,’ published Friday 12th September, Energy and Climate Change Secretary Ed Davey said:
“In Government the Liberal Democrats have more than doubled renewable energy generation thanks to proper investment in the sector
“We have been at the forefront of reforming the electricity market to help cut bills which is crucial to building a fairer society.
“And that’s not all, as part of creating a stronger economy, we are on target to produce 250,000 green jobs across the UK by 2020.
“But we want to do even more and introduce a legally binding decarbonisation target to green our electricity and boost renewable heating.
“The Liberal Democrats are looking ahead to a greener and reformed energy market, which benefits the consumer and puts the environment first.
“Pioneering work by the Renewable Energy Association’s members is vital to achieving these goals.”
