Healey preemptively addressed criticism, stating the policy represents a responsible path forward rather than abandonment of clean power. He emphasised that past renewable generation has protected consumers from gas price shocks and warned that removing renewables would expose Britain to volatile markets.
“This is not a retreat from clean power. It is the credible route to it. Cheaper electricity will make it easier for businesses and households to electrify, strengthening our energy security and helping us decarbonise the wider economy.”
