Commenting on the third reading of the Energy Bill, Alex Dawson, Chief Executive of TAG Energy Solutions and Chairman of North East Renewables Group, Energi Coast, said:
“The Energy Bill debate surrounding decarbonisation continues to reaffirm the importance low carbon resources such as offshore wind will play in the UK’s energy mix.
“However, continuing delays to the Bill becoming law continues to put investment in the sector at risk causing uncertainty among supply chain companies, which have invested in their operations ready to meet the challenges of the emerging renewables industry.
“Politicians should not forget the commitment supply chain companies have made to the industry and I would urge them to drive through the Energy Bill as quickly as possible.
“It will create a more confident environment for investors and operators, which will, in turn, provide considerable opportunities for supply chain companies that make a significant contribution to the UK economy.”
