LCP Delta research published this week projects Great Britain’s clean electricity will meet 83% of demand by 2030, falling short of Labour’s 95% target, and that the goal may only be reachable by 2035 at the current pace. The Guardian’s own data analysis finds Labour approved new renewable projects at double the Conservative rate in the party’s first two years, and the energy system operator has offered pre-2030 grid connection dates to 700 wind, solar, hydro and battery storage projects since January. Cornwall Insight separately warned the target requires near-flawless delivery of complex infrastructure and is impossible once real-world risks are factored in. Gas still provided nearly 27% of total electricity generation last year.
