Answer
Great British Energy is a key part of the government's mission to make Britain a clean energy superpower by achieving clean power by 2030.
This is part of a sustainable, long-term plan to protect all UK billpayers, including farmers, from volatile international gas markets. In an unstable world, the only way to guarantee our energy security and protect billpayers permanently is to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels and towards homegrown clean energy.
