Government delays announcement on renewable energy subsidies
17 July 2012
Commenting on the Government's decision to delay an announcement on subsidies for different renewable energy technologies, Friends of the Earth Energy Campaigner Guy Shrubsole said:
"This delay is just the latest in a long list of Government shambles that puts low-carbon investors off Britain.
"Renewable energy firms need to know the rug isn't about to be pulled from under their feet so that they can plan for the future.
"Clean British energy could be the powerhouse of our economy and create thousands of jobs - the Treasury must give it full backing."
