Hope Valley Climate Action

By 2050 we will need >2x as much electricity in #HopeValley. HVCA's study found that domestic electricity base load will increase from 23 to 60 GWh. Non-domestic demand will incr by similar amount. Renewable energy will be key to meeting this demand & reducing carbon emissions.

Did you catch Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall on Radio 4 this morning? HVCA has backed his campaign to ensure the Government keeps its promise to lift the ban on new onshore wind farms. theguardian.com/environment/20… #RenewableEnergy #MondayMotivation #WindEnergy #HopeValley #ClimateAction
