National Grid charges II

The SNP have focused on the issue of the charges to be paid by wind farms, and other renewable energy producers, for connecting to the national grid. This is important because they are likely to be much further away from population centres than conventional power stations (see 18 January).

London, in the form of Mike O’Brien the Energy Minister, have now responded with proposals to limit the charges, although Shiona Baird MSP for the Greens still regards government support as inadequate.

So far I can’t find any reaction from the SNP.
