UK can leapfrog a ‘gas bridge’ to transition directly to clean power generation, report says
A report from the World Wildlife Fund has called on the UK to halt production of new gas power plants and focus on renewable power generation, as the country moves towards the coal switch of 2025.
When Amber Rudd, the then Secretary of State, announced the UK coal phase-out back in 2015, she said ‘in the next 10 years, it’s imperative that we get new gas-fired power stations built,’ but the report says that renewables can replace the electricity generated by coal.
