National Grid
Asked by: Lord Cameron of Lochiel (Conservative - Life peer) Monday 29th September 2025 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask His Majesty's Government what action they are taking to reform the grid connections queue in order to remove "zombie scheme" energy applications. Answered by Lord Wilson of Sedgefield - Lord in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip) The Government is working closely with the National Energy System Operator, Ofgem and the network companies to deliver fundamental reform of the grid connections process. The reforms will prioritise connections for viable and strategically aligned projects needed for clean power, helping unlock £40 billion of mainly private investment a year in clean energy and infrastructure. They will ensure only projects that are ready and needed are offered a connection, by requiring evidence of land access and permission to build, as well as how a project strategically aligns with the Clean Power Action Plan. |
