About this analysis

The Guardian reports a £12bn investment by RWE and KKR in the Vanguard offshore windfarms off Norfolk, which Prime Minister Andy Burnham welcomed ahead of the Cop31 summit. It places the announcement next to the backlash over the Jackdaw gasfield approval and the rejection of the Botley West solar plant. It attributes the claims about jobs and bills to the government, RWE and ministers.

What it gets right

  • “It estimated that the construction of the windfarms will create and support 2,300 jobs each year through its supply chain.”

    The jobs figure is presented as RWE's own estimate. The reader knows the number comes from the developer.
