Mr Miliband’s announcement has sparked opposition with one Lincolnshire councillor previously describing the change as an “attack on the countryside”.
The county council’s executive member for economy, environment and strategic planning Colin Davie said he was concerned about the potential impact on the county’s agricultural industry.
In 2021, the authority passed a motion saying it would object to all wind turbines, except those on a small scale.
Conservative party leader Kemi Badenoch said that people should have a say in where wind turbines will be built, but that some considerations should override that when it comes to nationally significant infrastructure projects.
“I think it’s important that local people have a say,” she said.
“Obviously, when we have nationally significant infrastructure projects, there are some considerations that need to override that.
“And I think the overall issue is that we need to make sure that people’s quality of life and the their personal wellbeing is not unduly impacted by development.
“Of course, we want to make sure that we have more energy security in the country. That is a critical thing to do, and we will support the Government when they’re doing sensible things in order to achieve that.”
