Commenting on the Government’s announcement of the draft administrative strike price for offshore wind in the AR6 auction, Keith Anderson, Chief Executive of ScottishPower, said:
“Bringing more green energy onto the system is the single most important thing we can do to cut customers’ bills and strengthen our energy security. This is a welcome signal that the Government is listening and is committed to getting the UK’s pipeline of offshore wind projects moving again.
“The real test of that ambition will come when the overall budget for the next auction round is set next year. But, no doubt about it, this is a step in the right direction.”
