Climate scientists say missing that target would accelerate the risks of climate change like extreme weather.
On the campaign trail she said that what she called the "effective ban" on fracking would be lifted but it would only take place where local communities supported it . There's unlikely to be shift in policy towards two Tory renewable bugbears with comparable price tags - onshore wind and solar.
