🌞🌍 Swansea is on the road to net zero, and it’s all about harnessing the power of the sun and wind! A new energy plan is calling for a massive boost in solar farms and wind turbines to help the city hit its green goals by 2050. 🚀💨
The ambitious plan suggests solar energy production should leap twelve times, while wind energy needs to quadruple. This means more sparkling solar panels and towering wind turbines sprouting up across Swansea. The project aims not just to transform energy generation but also to shake up housing, transport, and industry, making them all cleaner and greener. 🚗🏠
First Minister Eluned Morgan is backing the effort, highlighting the potential for £47 billion investment and 15,000 new clean energy jobs in Wales. The vision is for all of Wales’s electricity to come from renewable sources by 2035. Talk about a bright future! 💡🔋
Local leaders stress the importance of a unified strategy across South-West Wales, ensuring environmental benefits and economic opportunities reach every corner of the community. The energy plan will be regularly reviewed to keep Swansea on track.
With road transport and domestic heating identified as the biggest challenges, it’s time for electric vehicle charging points and energy efficiency makeovers for homes. The journey to net zero promises a cleaner, greener, and more prosperous Swansea for everyone. Let’s power up! 🌿⚡
