The UK government has unveiled a bold plan to generate 80% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2035. The strategy focuses on expanding offshore wind farms, investing in nuclear energy, and boosting solar power capacity.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak stated that the transition to green energy would create thousands of jobs while reducing reliance on fossil fuels. “This is about energy security, lower bills, and a cleaner future,” he said.
The plan also includes a £10 billion investment in battery storage technology to ensure a stable power supply. While environmentalists have welcomed the move, some critics argue that the UK must accelerate its efforts to meet net-zero targets.
If successfully implemented, the UK could become one of the leading countries in renewable energy production by the next decade.
