We’re investing £64m to transform Port Talbot into Wales' first floating offshore wind hub.

That means 5,000 good jobs, £500m of investment and enough clean power for 6.5m homes.

We are putting Wales at the heart of our clean energy superpower mission.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Are you kidding me..... 😅😅😅

Heaven forbid they drill in the North Sea and bring down the cost of oil/petrol/gas which is now the most expensive in the Western world?

This guy is the "Energy" secretary.....

This should keep them from complaining about the cost of oil.

It's basically down to if the greenies can destroy UK's grid faster than the Muslims can take over and bring more sense to energy policies, at least to the believing citizens.

1995. Japan made a choice to go analog while the rest of the world went digital. You gotta figure they know what they’re doing.

“enough clean power for 6.5m homes”

When the winds blowing anyway, and not too hard.

Windmills are expensive and boats are expensive to maintain. Let’s put them together.

For onshore installations windmills need a concrete base of about 425 TONS, so impossible to build a functional floating windmill farm

Ed Miliband, broadly known in the UK as “Mad Ed Miliband.” Has a suicidal obsession with ‘net-zero’ and the faintest tether to reality has left him.
