The UK is going to reduce its carbon emissions by eighty percent by 2020, compared to 1990 levels - according to the government. In spite of this statement, UK people are questioning their government's dedication to wind power.
Wallstreetpit.com has recently published an article that claims the wind power projects owned by BP in the UK, Turkey, China and India will shut down and BP will refocus its energy on the US. This same article suggests that thirty percent of the UK's energy supply will come from wind power. Readers are wondering why the government is letting BP move their wind power projects to the US when they claim to be focusing on green energy sources like windfarms.
According to an article by the Guardian, Great Britain is one of the best locations in the world to be home to wind technology development. The popularity of Great Britain is owed mostly to the long coastline and good wind conditions that the country is famous for.
The article on the Guardian's site claims that the new partnership between Vattenfall and Iberdola Renovables has chosen the UK as the host for its latest wind farm project. The project is expected to put out 300MW of wind energy and will cost roughly 780M pounds Sterling to construct. Was this joint venture allowed because BP has moved its focus? If so - why is the government letting private business ventures shoulder the responsibility for wind technology?
Even more complaints are being voiced about the sum of money that will be needed to build the wind farms that will generate all of the green energy the UK's government is so enamoured with. If thirty percent of the nation's energy is going to be produced by wind farms, quite a few will need to be built to shoulder that burden. The Carbon Trust, an independent research group, has guessed that, in order to keep the government's promise the process will need to get considerably faster and-at the same time-sixteen billion pounds will need to be removed from the project's original budget. Redgreenandblue.com points out that although the UK targeted 2020 as the date by which this wind energy would be available, only twenty five percent of the wind farms will have been built by then.
Citizens of the UK understand that the power grid is not the best source of energy and that green technology is the way of the future for energy production. Wind energy is cheaper and better for the planet than the current system that is in place. Unfortunately the government has not proved its commitment to green technology. With the current deadline of 2020 still in place, and all of the blocks standing in the way of actually reaching that deadline, will the government really be able to implement the wind energy it has promised?
