New Conservative Wind Proposals Welcomed

Curtin&Co are pleased to see that Conservative thinking on wind farms has moved positively towards embracing the need for this renewable source.

Greg Clark, the Tories spokesman on the issue of renewable energy, revealed in a speech last week at Oxford University that the old policy of being instinctively averse to the thought of on-shore wind farms has been reversed. This is a very welcome development and shows that all major political parties have recognised the very real need to diversify the energy production in the country.

With the almost inevitable delay in getting the next generation of nuclear power stations up and running we may come to rely on wind energy far more than we currently believe.
