Commons ChamberThe Labour party and the Co-operative party have set out a shared ambition for more community-owned energy. That is not new: in Denmark, 52% of wind energy is community owned, and in Germany half of all onshore wind is community owned. Will the Government do far more to join that ambition of community-owned energy here in Britain?
We have ambitious plans for energy generation and our energy security. We want to bring communities with us, and we look at all options as we do so.
