Original consultation
Consultation description
The Government is seeking views on its position that non-mainland GB onshore wind projects should not be classified as a separate technology nor allowed access to Pot 2 (less established technologies), but should continue to be treated as onshore wind. This consultation is to seek evidence on this issue from respondents.
