Welcome to the new edition of the Windfair Newsletter. In the last eight years, just 20 new onshore wind turbines have been built in England. The reason for this was a de facto ban introduced by then Prime Minister David Cameron. After a fierce dispute in his party, the turnaround finally followed this week. Read our editorial to find out why not everyone is happy with the decision to once again allow onshore wind turbines. Meanwhile, Scotland must deliver its Energy Strategy and Just Transition Plan in order to fully unleash its clean energy potential, trade body Scottish Renewables says. And Brazil has set a new record generating more than a quarter of its electricity from wind and solar for the first time ever in the month of July. Read the whole stories in our highlights section.
