Uk Government’s 10 Point Plan for a Green Industrial Revolution
In November 2020, the UK Government’s announced a plan to set “out the approach government will take to build back better, support green jobs, and accelerate our path to net-zero”.
The plan focuses on increasing ambition in the following areas:
- advancing offshore wind
- driving the growth of low carbon hydrogen
- delivering new and advanced nuclear power
- accelerating the shift to zero-emission vehicles
- green public transport, cycling and walking
- ‘jet zero’ and green ships
- greener buildings
- investing in carbon capture, usage and storage
- protecting our natural environment
- green finance and innovation
It is expected to mobilise up to £12 billion of Government investments, up to three times that in the private sector and attract 2.5 million jobs in the green sector
