Renewable and Sustainable Energy APPG

First Registered: 30/07/2015 • Last updated on: 07/05/2025

The APPG supports parliamentarians to advance and inform energy transition policy. The Group seeks to strengthen cross-party dialogue to build consensus by convening policymakers with industry, civil society, and academics.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
