Boris Johnson has confirmed he wants all UK electricity to come from renewable sources by 2035. Asked by broadcasters at a Network Rail site in Manchester whether that was the case, the Prime Minister said: “Yes, it is.” Mr Johnson added: “What I’m saying is we can do for our entire energy production by 2035 what we’re doing with internal combustion engines in vehicles by 2030. “By 2030, you won’t be able to buy anymore a new hydrocarbon-fuelled internal combustion engine car and we’re going to move to clean power of one kind or another. “And that will make a huge difference to our CO2 output, to controlling climate change, to our planet, but it will also put the UK at the forefront of this amazing new industry of clean vehicles. “And what we’re also saying is that by 2035, looking at the progress we’re making in wind power, where we lead the world now in offshore wind, looking at what we can do with other renewable sources, carbon capture and storage with hydrogen potentially, we think that we can get to complete clean energy production by 2035.”
