The DTI and Carbon Trust publish the Renewables Network Impacts Report |
|
Submitted: 22 April 2004 |
| A report released on 22 April 2004, commissioned by the DTI and the Carbon Trust for the Renewables Advisory Board, concluded that current wind energy developers' plans can deliver over 70% of the Government's 2010 renewable energy target by 2006. |
|
One of the reports recommendations is that
To ensure that generators� business plans and the 2010 target are achieved, the DTI and the Scottish Executive would need to accelerate the planning process on a national scale as a matter of urgency, taking into account that public perception of renewable power will play an important role in planning-related issues for both renewable power projects and the associated network reinforcement work.
|
| The report is also clear that intermittency of wind energy is not a significant issue in terms of meeting the 10% renewables target. |
