Path To Net Zero
Policy Landscape in the UK
Our “Path To Net Zero: Policy Landscape in the UK” primer adds to our continued series of key energy transition-focused industry reports. The collective work is the result of a valued research collaboration between us and Alchemy Business Intelligence and Insights, a leading industry research group working actively across the energy transition markets. The report draws on industry-specific data from industry associations, government authorities / statistical departments, and the International Energy Agency (“IEA”). This was supplemented by news reports, trade journals, and related sources.
The Report provides an update on and overview of the UK’s rapidly evolving policy landscape, emphasising the nation’s commitment to achieving its 2030 and 2050 clean energy and net-zero emissions goals. It highlights the ambitious clean energy capacity targets the UK government has set, the strategic policy mechanisms designed to support these objectives, and the pressing need for infrastructure enhancements and financial incentives to ensure effective and timely implementation. With the combined policies introduced over the past 12 months, one could say that the UK is on a clear path to net zero emissions in its energy system. And could even say that the UK has set a path for other countries and nations to follow on their respective paths to net zero emissions. It is an ambitious package of policies and interventions for the private capital markets to now work into.
We hope this primer offers valuable insights and an engaging read, and we look forward to sharing further updates on other energy transition trends in the months ahead.
