Ofwat and government may have broken law over sewage spills

Weekend press: SSE rules out new onshore wind farms in England and Wales

In this weekend’s papers, the boss of SSE rules out building new onshore wind farms in England and Wales, saying the company is focusing on offshore wind despite the relaxation of planning rules and the absence of the latter from last week’s CfD auctions. There is also continued reaction to the “disastrous” auctions and a survey finds more than half of voters will be influenced by the government’s handling of sewage spills at the next election.
