This new analysis of the UK’s low carbon infrastructure has found that the UK is ahead in the global trend to make new infrastructure low carbon. We are already a world leader in offshore wind and planned low carbon infrastructure projects make up over 70 per cent of the Treasury’s infrastructure pipeline. Alongside these large scale low carbon infrastructure projects the report also finds a new opportunity. Major change is occurring through a multitude of small scale projects and activities, modernising and improving our underlying energy infrastructure.
