In November 2019, the UK Treasury announced it would conduct a Net Zero Review to assess how the UK could make the most of the economic opportunities the green transition presents. Published following the UK legislating to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, this Review, alongside the much-anticipated Energy White Paper, is designed to provide a clear roadmap on how the UK would achieve and fund its ambitious low-carbon transition.
As businesses across the UK – and indeed the world – focus on getting back on track, there’s a growing impetus to embed greater sustainability into the recovery.
Once the preserve of the eco-conscious ‘early adopter’, research suggests it won’t be long before electric vehicles (EVs) become the norm on UK roads.
