<p>Onshore wind is an important part of the energy mix, accounting for around a quarter
of both installed renewable capacity and generation in the UK. The costs of onshore
wind have fallen dramatically and are around 50% cheaper than in 2015. The British
Energy Security Strategy set out that the Government is serious about delivering cheaper,
cleaner, more secure power, and will consider all options for increasing onshore wind
deployment in ways that local communities will support. More low-cost renewables like
onshore wind on the system will limit household electricity bills by ensuring Britain
is less affected by fluctuations in volatile global gas prices.</p>
