The UK’s new Labour government is accelerating renewable energy opportunities with its Planning and Infrastructure Bill. Backed by over £1bn in funding, the bill cuts bureaucracy, enabling rapid development and investment in renewables, reshaping the nation’s green economy.
We’re mere months into the new Government in the UK, and changes are aplenty. The Labour government has wasted little time in implementing new policies, proposing a new Planning and Infrastructure Bill set to transform how housing and other assets are developed across the UK.
The red tape that surrounded planning approvals, the restrictions on building across green and grey belt land, and the long drawn out bureaucracy that engulfed processes and discouraged developers and investors is set to go. This means an opportunity for development with renewables at the heart.
