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.

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.
