Octopus Energy expects new onshore wind projects following the ban lift

The CEO of Britain’s Octopus Energy said in an interview with Reuters that the company expects to announce new onshore wind projects “fairly soon” after the incoming Labor government ended an effective ban on new wind farms in England. 

The Labor government aims to decarbonize the country’s electricity system by 2030 and has plans to help unlock infrastructure projects. It also seeks to increase the country’s renewable power capacity.
