abstract
Under the Clean Power 2030 Action Plan, the government identified onshore wind as a key technology that is mature, efficient, and cost-effective. Onshore wind has a vital role to play in decarbonising our electricity system, enhancing our energy security, and supporting economic growth. Having more low-cost renewables like onshore wind on the system reduces Great Britain's exposure to volatile global fossil fuel prices, protecting consumer electricity bills against future price shocks. To accelerate onshore wind deployment, government published an Onshore Wind Taskforce Strategy in July 2025, which focused on actions for government and industry to remove barriers and help reach our 2030 Clean Power target. In the Strategy, government committed to launching a consultation on permitted development rights for onshore wind, to support deployment of small-scale onshore wind.
