The trade body formerly known as Oil and Gas UK has called for a “rapid expansion of offshore wind” as energy prices soar across the world.
Offshore Energies UK, which recently rebranded to include its wind power members, said that the country must “maximise” its energy independence and reduce its vulnerability to global price shocks.
To this end it also called on the UK Government to issue the next round of oil and gas exploration licences for the North Sea as soon as possible.
