The government's clean power dream just hit a massive reality check from wind bosses. RWE chief Tom Glover admitted their fancy new offshore wind farms likely won't generate electricity before the deadline hits. His company snagged five massive contracts recently during a state auction. Ministers celebrated that win as a victory for Ed Miliband and his decarbonization goals.

Glover confessed that the timeline looks impossible when asked if turbines would spin quickly enough. Three separate sites only kick off operations during the fiscal year after the cutoff. Two major schemes at Dogger Bank still lack planning permission while grid connections generally take forever to finalize.

The executive argued that observers should focus on the twenty billion pounds being spent rather than on slight delays. Chris Stark from the clean power program insists those eight gigawatts will definitely work. Official plans require ninety-five percent green energy usage soon, compared to roughly seventy-four percent today.

SSE also secured a contract for Berwick Bank but that site faces similar scheduling lags. RWE intends to split the massive bill with investors like KKR and Masdar. They promised that half the supply chain work stays local to boost British industry despite the logistical headaches.
