answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2022 answer text <p>The costs of onshore wind have fallen dramatically, and it is around 50% cheaper than in 2015. More low-cost renewables like onshore wind on the system will limit household electricity bills by ensuring that Britain is less affected by fluctuations in volatile global gas prices. As set out in the Energy White Paper and Net Zero Strategy, a low-cost net zero system of the future will be predominantly comprised of wind and solar. To achieve this, the Government will require a sustained increase in locally supported onshore wind to 2030 and beyond, alongside other renewables such as solar and offshore wind.</p> answering member constituency Chelsea and Fulham answering member printed Greg Hands question first answered 25/07/2022 10:45:58 answering member 1526 label Biography information for Greg Hands
