Innovating Clean Energy Europe
The UK is at the forefront of the energy transition, and the Prime Minister has put delivering clean power by 2030 at the heart of one of his five missions for government.
Clean Energy Industries are one of the UK's leading growth-driving sectors, with our upcoming Industrial Strategy outlining a clean energy sector plan, providing investors with certainty and stability.
4 reasons to choose the UK for clean energy:
Legally binding targets to achieve Net Zero by 2050
Creating a stable regulatory framework enabling investment in clean energy industries alongside policy development.
A Clean Power 2030 Action Plan enabling increased investment
Including grid reform, accelerating planning for priority energy infrastructure and expanding the renewable auction process.
Significant funding for clean energy
New initiatives such as £8.3 billion GB Energy, £5.8 billion uplift to National Wealth Fund and record-breaking £1.555 billion Contracts for Difference (CFD) AR6 budget.
Support mechanisms for renewable energy and low-carbon technologies
Contracts for Difference (CFD), hydrogen production and CCUS business models, reduce risk and provide long-term support.
The future lies in low-carbon energy.
The UK government has pledged nearly £22bn for projects to capture and store carbon emissions from energy, industry and hydrogen production.
Renewable sources already account for 50% of the UK's electricity, driving us closer to a sustainable, carbon-free future. The UK is on an ambitious path to fully decarbonise its power sector by 2030, positioning itself as a global leader in clean energy. Thanks to strong partnerships with our European allies and neighbours, we are making significant progress toward this goal.
