The vast majority of UK wind farms have no direct ownership from China. We work very closely with industry and across government to maintain a detailed picture of foreign involvement in energy infrastructure. We continue to take a consistent, long-term and strategic approach to managing relations with China and will co-operate where we can, compete where we need to, and challenge where we must.
