POWER: UK Network Operators Abolish 10GW of “Zombie” Projects
POWER
UK power network operators have cut 10GW of stalled “zombie” energy projects in a bid to increase the connection process, figures from Energy Networks Association show.
- However, there is still around 252GW of more generation units in the queue than required to meet the UK’s 2050 Net Zero goals, the association added.
- The Energy Network association is taking steps to curtail these so-called “zombie” projects by:
- Ensuring all projects in the queue meet their milestones.
- For delayed projects, network companies discuss reasons and assist in progression.
- Stalled projects are removed from the queue and contracts are terminated.
