GB Energy won’t supply electricity directly to households. Instead, it will work with the private sector to co-invest in emerging energy technologies to make them competitive with more mature technologies, including:
- hydrogen that’s created from water (water electrolysis), also called green hydrogen
- floating offshore windfarms
- tidal power
The government also intends to scale investment in existing mature technologies, such as:
- onshore wind
- solar power
- nuclear energy
It will also work with local authorities and community energy organisations to expand small and medium renewable energy projects, like:
