Department for Energy Security and Net Zero written question – answered at on 28 November 2023.
Baroness Jones of Whitchurch
Shadow Spokesperson (Science, Innovation and Technology)
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the importance of R&D investment in net zero technologies; and what steps they are taking to measure the outcomes from that investment.
Lord Callanan
Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)
Research and development (R&D) is critical for reaching net zero by 2050 and the government is investing £4.2 billion in net zero R&D over 2022-2025. This will support the development of the technologies and solutions needed to deliver the UK’s net zero target and to support innovative UK businesses to benefit from the growing global green economy. The Net Zero Research and Innovation Delivery Plan published in March 2023 sets out the details of this investment and an update on progress is planned to be published in 2025.
