Overcoming barriers to delivery of renewable energy - low carbon future for Cambridgeshire
We have signed up to the UK100 clean energy pledge, committing to secure 100% clean energy by 2050.
By signing up to the UK100 network we are pledging to secure clean energy, relegating fossil fuels to the past as much as it can, and for Cambridgeshire to become part of an exciting smart new energy system.
More renewable energy and battery storage is needed to support the Government’s net zero carbon commitments by 2050 and deliver on the County Council’s climate emergency declaration in May 2019.
We are already at the forefront of renewable energy investment, and have so far invested £19 million into energy projects including solar parks. With an investment programme of a further £55 million to deliver during the next few years, this will help Cambridgeshire move towards the new energy system our future needs.
