The government needs to recognise the importance of East of England in keeping electricity on across the UK, claims the region’s industry association.
In a video blog by East of England Energy Group (EEEGR), Simon Gray, the group chief executive, highlighted the region’s versatile power sources which are capable of preventing a country-wide blackout.
He named the on-going wind turbine and nuclear developments as key elements in UK green energy strategy, as well as the potential of the local gas terminals in providing emergency power supplies.
“This is a unique proposition in the East of England,” Gray said.
“No other region in England has that offering, that mix of diverse energy sources.”
