What impact could coordination of offshore energy infrastructure have on business models and regulation, ie. what changes are required; and what is the right balance of risk and reward for offshore wind developers, interconnectors and other transmission owners to better coordinate?
Background
BEIS has committed to ending the UK’s contribution to global warming by achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Our work towards becoming a leader in green technologies and clean energy will drive economic growth, all whilst accelerating global climate action through strong international leadership.
