To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure the UK achieves its target of 43 to 50 gigawatts of offshore wind capacity by 2030.

This Government has been clear that the answers to the challenges around energy security, affordability and sustainability point in the same direction – clean energy. The Government has launched its Clean Power 2030 Action Plan setting out a detailed plan for achieving the target of clean power by 2030. The plan includes a bold set of measures focused on delivering a once-in-a-generation upgrade to Britain’s energy infrastructure, including cleaning up the queue to connect the right projects in the right place, fixing the planning system to fast-track critical clean energy infrastructure, and reforming our renewables auctions to secure a strong pipeline of technologies including offshore wind.
