Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps he is taking to promote nature-positive renewable energy.

Asked by:
Pippa Heylings (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

The Government will ensure that the protection of nature is embedded into the delivery of clean power and we will be driving for nature to not only be protected but restored through clean power infrastructure.

As part of our Clean Power Action Plan, we are considering how to use development to fund nature recovery unlocking a win-win outcome for the economy and for nature. We are working with nature delivery organisations, stakeholders and the sector to consider how we can better support the delivery of infrastructure whilst driving better environmental outcomes.
