Since 2006 there have been very few solar panels in the United Kingdom, the development of wind power has been limited to land, and the development of offshore wind farms has only been conducted in Denmark. Since then, many changes have taken place. According to According to the Business Green Report, 2017 is the greenest year in the history of the United Kingdom, with the electricity sector emitting only half the carbon dioxide emissions five years ago (2012).
There are many reasons for this huge change. The reason may be the drastic reduction of coal consumption demand, or the popularization of solar power generation or the large-scale expansion of offshore wind power generation.
Although there are still many problems to be solved in the current policies to encourage the use of onshore wind and solar energy, the development of these energy sources also encourages all countries to accelerate the pace of energy system decarbonization.
On the other hand, once EVs are widely available in the market, clean power will help reduce carbon emissions for a growing number of EVs.
In addition, Britain's attempt to new energy is more than that. According to a report released late last year, Britain also made a big bet in the electric car industry after the EU's exit from the EU.
