To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps she is taking to help increase investment in green technologies.
Answered by Andrew Bowie - Shadow Minister (Energy Security and Net Zero)
The UK has made tremendous progress securing investment into green technologies. Recent figures indicate that the UK saw £60bn of investment in 2023.
Government continues to bring forward targeted funding, regulation and policy to drive investment – such as confirming the funding boost for our Contracts for Difference scheme, publishing our CCUS vision, and our recent announcement of support for advanced nuclear fuel.
