EVOL: 100 days for Labour and counting
The UK’s Labour government says it’s in a hurry to make Great Britain a clean energy superpower. So for this week’s podcast, news editor Erikka Askeland takes a romp through the first hundred days of the government and the billions that have been promised for green energy firms – but is it all new money?
Reporter Michael Behr discusses what happened when Labour’s 100 days roadshow came North to Aberdeen, as Energy secretary Ed Miliband and GB Energy Chairman Jeurgen Maier promise the delivery – at last – of the energy skills passport.
And finally, print features lead Ryan Duff adds grist to the rumour mill after five senior executives leave the private-equity-owned NEO Energy as it slows down development on a flagship North Sea prospect.
