to

This bill aims to boost renewable energy in the UK by making it simpler to build wind farms on land. It does this by introducing 'contracts for difference' agreements that guarantee renewable energy companies a set price for their electricity, reducing their financial risk and encouraging investment in clean energy.

Presented by Baroness Hayman.
