Number 10 has just had an oil and gas summit and a nuclear summit, but no renewables summit. Surprising approach to delivering #netzero. #c4news

I have over 3,00O followers. My last post was seen by 20 people. Is there any point in staying on Elon Musk's X?

Average annual energy bill to rise by 10% to £1,717 in Great Britain from October. For "100%" renewables tariffs, this increase is absurd. Sort it out @Ed_Miliband https://t.co/hUn0NqOWBf

I’m here at the Southwark Crown Court where the judge has given 5 years to @RogerHallamCS21 and 4 years to the others from @JustStop_Oil - brutal sentences.

The Government will unleash a UK solar rooftop revolution.

We want to bring this win-win technology to millions of addresses in the UK so people can provide their own electricity, cut their bills, and at the same time help fight climate change. ☀️

NEW Ed Miliband has granted development consent to three major new solar farms which had been awaiting government decision

Sunnica, Gate Burton + Mallard Pass — all classified as nationally significant infrastructure projects — cleared for construction

We said we would lift the ban on onshore wind farms.

We have.

.@CSkidmoreUK not pulling any punches — accuses Daily Telegraph of deliberately running stories undermining the energy transition

Says the newspaper uses net zero as clickbait

[Adam Vaughan @adamvaughan_uk]

Wow, that was quick.

The effective ban on onshore wind farms in England has been lifted, just a few days after Labour took power.

Planning barriers cut, so "onshore wind applications will be treated in the same way as other energy development proposals"

[Sam Dumitriu @Sam_Dumitriu]

Labour confirm they will fully end England's ban on onshore wind and bring large-scale onshore wind farms into the NSIP system.

Reminder: since Putin’s invasion, Ukraine has installed more than 12 times the onshore wind turbine capacity than England.

BREAKING: Chancellor Rachel Reeves has announced mandatory housing targets and an end to the onshore wind ban to get "Britain building again" https://t.co/c4K8U6fS0A

First 24 hours on the job as Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero. It was a pleasure to meet the brilliant civil servants.

My message- together, we will deliver the bold energy and climate plan our country needs.

[Seb Berry 💙 @SebPV]

Who are the key people inside #Labour’s leadership team? https://t.co/9rrkB9lmSp

[Ed Miliband @Ed_Miliband]

It is a privilege and honour to have been appointed as Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero.

This government has won a mandate to deliver a bold plan for energy independence, lower energy bills, good jobs and to tackle the climate crisis.

That work begins now.

[Seb Berry 💙 @SebPV]

"Hug a husky," and all that followed (for a short while), seems like a very long time ago now. Why would anyone working in sustainable energy or the environment vote Conservative?

[Doug Parr @doug_parr]

Ranking the UK election manifestos on environment, nature & democracy, @Conservatives score only a quarter of the points that @UKLabour do

@GreenpeaceUK and @friends_earth came together to assess their manifestos against what needs doing
