British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is set to pledge that every home in the country will be powered by offshore wind in a decade.<\/p>\n

Johnson says a “green industrial revolution” will create hundreds of thousands of jobs. He’s sinking 160 million pounds ($208 million) into the proposal, with funds going toward upgrading ports and factories to aid in the construction of the next generation of wind turbines.<\/p>\n

Johnson is expected to make the pledge Tuesday in an address to the annual Conservative Party conference, which is being held online this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

Johnson will say: “There is one area where we are progressing quite literally with gale force speed and that is the green economy – the green industrial revolution that in the next 10 years will create hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of jobs.”\n <\/p>\n\n
