This briefing, produced with the Centre for Economic Performance (CEP), highlights that rapid growth in renewables means more than 40% of the UK’s electricity is now generated this way. The briefing goes on to explain that reaching net zero by 2050 will require a massive uptake of electric vehicles, heat pumps and efficiency upgrades in homes alongside an even faster rapid scale-up of clean power.
