Proceeding contribution from Glyn Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Electricity Market Reform.


Electricity Market Reform

Many of us believe that there is currently an over-dependence on onshore wind to achieve the Government's low-carbon targets. The mid-Wales uplands are under threat of being desecrated through industrialisation by a plethora of multiple wind farms. Does the Secretary of State agree that cumulative impact and high landscape value should be material planning considerations in deciding on onshore wind projects?
