The plan aims to increase the number of students studying relevant subjects at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels as well as supporting relevant scientific research,

Total battery energy storage capacity to reach 4 GW by the end of 2023 🔮. The past three quarters have seen battery energy storage buildout really start to ramp up. An average 407 MW of new capacity has come online per quarter (Q4 2022 - Q2 2023). In the three quarters prior (Q1-3 2022), the average new capacity was just 106 MW.

As part of Labour''s mission to switch on Great British Energy and make Britain a clean energy superpower, we will: Cut your energy bill for good – and create good jobs. Create 650,000 new, skilled jobs in the industries of the future, rebuilding the strength of our industrial heartlands. Set up Great British Energy''s headquarters in Scotland.
