The British Wind Association welcomes the UK Government's "Its Only Natural" initiative

Further proof that the UK government means business on renewable energy sources

The BWEA, the association championing the UK’s wind and marine renewable resources, warmly welcomed the announcement made by Energy Minister Stephen Timms regarding a new renewable energy awareness campaign. BWEA Chief Executive Marcus Rand commented: “Today’s announcement of a major renewable energy awareness campaign is welcome news and further proof that this government means business on renewables.” The Energy Minister launched ‘It’s Only Natural’ at the first national conference on wave and tidal energy in Bristol, organised jointly by BWEA and Regen SW, describing it as a sign of Government’s continuing commitment to renewable energy. Stephen Timms, Energy Minister carried on to say: “Our campaign will leave nobody in any doubt that renewables are at the heart of the Government’s energy policy,” he said.

The campaign will seek to inform planners, investors and the wider community of the potential and benefits of renewable energy. Marcus Rand said “The UK is home to a great natural powerhouse in the wind and the sea, and with sustained Government, private sector and public support, we can convert this into clean electricity for millions of homes across the country.

Notes:

1. The £200,000 campaign will target planners and investors through a number of channels, including workshops, a conference, media initiatives and a website. Future work will widen the campaign to reach consumers. See the press release at the DTI’s website www.dti.gov.uk
2. The British Wind Energy Association (BWEA), the UK's largest renewable energy association, will begin to champion the emerging wave and tidal power sector, and bring its experience at the forefront of the wind industry to help grow this exciting new sector. The Association launched the initiative at its joint national conference with Regen SW on wave and tidal power in Bristol today. For more information see www.bwea.com/marine
