GB News: British taxpayers to shoulder £3bn energy bill as turbines switched off in high winds
British households may face costs of up to £3 billion annually by 2030 due to payments to wind farms for halting electricity generation during high wind output. These "constraint payments" are necessary to maintain grid stability as renewable energy expands faster than transmission capacity.
The costs have surged from £242 million in 2019 to £1 billion last year, with projections suggesting they could reach £6 billion by 2030. The government is working to expand the transmission grid to mitigate these payments, while industry experts express differing views on the long-term benefits of renewable energy investments.
