<p>The UK is continuing to make progress towards the 2020 renewables target of 15%
of final energy consumption from renewable sources. We are on track to meet the next
interim target for 2013/14, with provisional figures showing 6.3% of final energy
consumption came from renewable sources, against a target level of 5.4%.</p><p>The
Government has set out its plan to meet the target, including an ambition for at least
30% of electricity demand to be met by renewable sources. This includes between 11
– 13 GW of electricity to be provided by onshore wind by 2020. We have enough onshore
wind in the pipeline, including projects that have planning permission, to deliver
this.</p>
