Protecting the UK's foundations: a blueprint for energy-intensive industries
A successful low-carbon economy will include industries that require a lot of energy. But the UK's energy intensive industries are at risk of being undermined by increases to their energy costs. If we do not secure the future of these industries, we will be forced to import what we should be exporting.
Risky Business - investing in the UK's low-carbon infrastructure
Over the next few decades, the UK faces a unique investment challenge in its transition to a low-carbon economy. The key to hitting our stretching legal emissions targets will be our ability to generate the large and sustained investment needed to replace and decarbonise our energy infrastructure. As a global frontrunner on climate change policy, the UK government must show leadership and ingenuity in making this investment happen.
Making ends meet: maximising the value of waste
The government has set itself the target of a "zero-waste economy" in which all waste resources are full valued, economically and environmentally. Aligning these two outcomes is vital.
