Farmers, factories & schools as well as public sector organisations could soon be able to install small onshore wind turbines in England without needing to apply for planning permission.

Sorry @PJTheEconomist I respect your work at IFS but on this one you are completely wrong
Renewables are around 90% of new power investment globally - including in the US led by Texas.

This is utter garbage. I believe in net zero. We need to get there. But renewables are not competitive. That’s why they are subsidised. Fossil fuel markets are highly competitive. It shouldn’t be hard to hold these two thoughts at the same time.

Minimum energy efficiency standards mean that all rental properties will need to meet EPC C by 2030. Our Head of Policy Matt explains how this will benefit fuel poor households in the private and social rental sector.
