Becky Gittins, MP for Clwyd East (pictured), has welcomed Labour’s new Clean Energy Jobs Plan, which aims to will create around 15,000 clean energy jobs across Wales by 2030 - part of more than 400,000 new jobs across the UK.
The plan sets out how communities like those in Clwyd East can benefit from the growing clean energy sector, with new opportunities in engineering, construction, welding and electrification.
Energy Secretary Ed Miliband MP said: “The clean energy economy is the route to delivering the good jobs at decent wages that our communities deserve. Labour’s pro-worker, pro-jobs, pro-union agenda is delivering thousands of opportunities right across the country, so young people don’t have to leave their hometown just to find a decent job.”
Becky Gittins commented: “People here in Clwyd East want to see real jobs and real opportunities for their families - and that’s exactly what this plan delivers.
"From wind and solar to green construction and engineering, we’re creating good work you can build a future on, without having to move away from the place you call home.
"North Wales has the skills, the ambition and the community spirit to lead the clean energy transition - and I’m proud that Labour is backing us to do just that.”
