3.Balancing growing demands for power with carbon reduction targets – LWEC
Fulfilling the UK’s objective of both ensuring resilient infrastructure is in place to meet future energy needs and the country can meet its carbon emission reduction targets poses challenges. The use of low carbon, renewable energy technologies, such as wind turbines and hydropower, is expected to increase. However, the supply from these technologies may be periodic and/or irregular and demand for power is increasing.
