Ed Miliband’s hated net zero targets to be scrapped in Tory plan to slash £165 off bills | Politics | News
Tories said that in accordance with the policies of a conservative government, the energy bills of the households would decrease £ 165. Shadow Energy Secretary Claire Coutinho promised to reduce the prices supported by Energy Secretary Ed Miliband and to scrap the “climate targets”.
Net Zero’nun “became a religion” and “England does not work and did not work for the climate,” he said. Speaking at the conservative conference in Manchester, the “cheap power plan” would reduce £ 165 from the average household bill.
The changes include scrapping carbon tax to electricity generation, which contributes to the price of fuel bills, and scrap the renewable obligation subsidies plan. The subsidies, which were initiated by the Labor Party in 2002 and doubled by Bay Miliband in 2008, mean that renewable energy producers are significantly overcome the market payments for electricity – three times more than the electric market price.
Coutinho will bring together carbon tax and scrapping Mr. Miliband’s old wind subsidies, Coutinho said Coutinho said.
“Increasing the cost of electricity is the worst climate policy.
“If you want people to use electric cars, here is a revolutionary idea – make electricity cheap. If you want people to use electric heating, make electricity cheap.
Mak If you want to build data centers, cut bills and increase growth, make electricity cheap.
“So I can promise you. When it comes to energy policy, our priority will not be ideology. These interests will not be given. There will be no fake promises that we cannot deliver. There will be cheap, reliable, plenty of energy.”
He also said that a future Torah government will scrape the ban on new oil and gas licenses, reversing the energy profit tax and start drilling again in the North Sea.
“Ed Miliband’s new drilling plan will lose our own energy resources in the world, 200,000 jobs and 12 billion £ 12 billion tax revenue.
“Why? So we can import more gas from Norway from the same area where we can pierce ourselves.
“Our liquefied gas imports rise more than 40% in one year. So conference, I can say that – as long as we need gas, it should come from England as much as possible.”
The conservative conference told the party that if the party wins the next election, it would scrape great British energy.
Ms. Coutinho told the members that it was a mak a make -up project that will not cut bills ”from Mr. Miliband.
