Memorandwm Cydsyniad Deddfwriaethol ar Fil Ynni Prydain Fawr: Sesiwn dystiolaeth gydag Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Economi, Ynni a Chynllunio

…well made, but at the same time, when you look at the kinds of projects that we're able to fund through Ynni Cymru, lots of them are small scale, which don't need access to the grid, and provide that local ability to have reliable renewable energy, as well, which is important.

Memorandwm Cydsyniad Deddfwriaethol ar Fil Ynni Prydain Fawr: Sesiwn dystiolaeth gydag Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Economi, Ynni a Chynllunio

We established Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru using the executive powers of Welsh Ministers, so there's nothing in the Bill that would affect that, so, in that sense, we don't see the need to see any specific amendments in that context. But the area of the Bill where we do want to see those discussions around…

…of the way in which the two Governments work together, the way in which Great British Energy works with Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru and so on. But we're not in the position at the moment to provide those answers, because the discussions are at such an early stage.

So, those discussions were very good, but I was really clear that our concerns, really, are around the role of Welsh Ministers and of the Senedd as we move forward.…

Diolch, Cadeirydd. It was actually around the point, Jennifer, that you just made around what happens now with Ynni Cymru and Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru, because I'm really interested in how they will interact with GB Energy. So, does that mean now, as we're waiting for that detail from GB Energy—and…

So, with Ynni Cymru, we're essentially four years ahead of where the UK Government is at the moment—sorry, Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru; we're quite a significant way ahead. But perhaps I'll ask Jennifer to talk to us…
